More and more on Hillary's emails?

Hillary Clinton was revealed to have used personal e-mail to conduct U.S. foreign policy while she was Secretary of State. She was speaking at Emily's List on Tuesday when a blonde in the audience heckled her about it. The blonde was hustled outside by security where Bill Clinton wrestled her to the ground.

 Secrets of Clinton emails revealed   . . . "Hothem is the same aide who was charged with packing up and carting off furniture from the White House at the end of Bill Clinton's presidency that he said was 'Clinton’s personal property.' 

Was the State Department 'IT guy' Asleep at the Switch?     "Beyond the legal stuff, there are lots of red flags or things that jump at me:  

1) Where was the "IT guy" at the State Department? Did he or she know that the Secretary of State, a person writing and reading about sensitive information, waa not using an official email?   
2) If yes, who did he or she talk to about it? Was some supervisor alerted? How high up the chain did this alert go?  Was President Obama alerted to the incredible risk of having the country's top diplomat doing the nation's business on a private server?
3) If no, then are these the same people who put together the ObamaCare website?

Hillary Clinton: Mean Girls Meets the Mob

Michael Walsh  . . . At its heart, the Democrat Party is a collection of bootless self-aggrandizers interested primarily in power and money but also motivated by a juvenile wish to dominate others for their own sadistic pleasure. It uses collectivist slogans of “tolerance” and “compassion” to conceal its true ugly face, and hijacks the best instincts of its victims and uses them against them. In my forthcoming book, The Devil’s Pleasure Palace, I have dubbed this latest incarnation of a very old evil the “unholy Left” and the “satanic Left.” Of course, I mean that in the nicest possible way." . . .

Clinton State Department Ousted Ambassador Using Private Email . . . "In other words, State Department policy was very clear. Using a private email outside the State Department's secure system was completely unacceptable. If this applied to ambassadors, one would think it was sensible policy for the Secretary of State as well." 

Follow the Money: Clinton Foundation  "The reach of the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation crosses oceans and international lines. The financial relationships, given the nature of Mrs. Clinton’s time as Secretary of State and Presidential ambitions, certainly raise questions about the ethical lines that could be crossed by corporations desiring access to such a powerful political figure." . .

Benghazi Committee To Ramp Up Investigation Into Clinton After Email Scandal…

. . . “ 'We have said from the beginning that our investigation would follow the facts wherever they lead us—and we intend to keep that promise by reviewing all of the relevant facts and documents in order to issue the definitive report on what happened before, during, and after the terrorist attacks in Benghazi,” Roskam added."

Netanyahu’s Churchillian warning

This was not Churchill of the 1940s, but Churchill of the 1930s, the wilderness prophet. Which is why for all its sonorous strength, Netanyahu’s speech had a terrible poignancy. After all, Churchill was ignored.


Charles Krauthammer

"Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress was notable in two respects. Queen Esther got her first standing O in 2,500 years. And President Obama came up empty in his campaign to preemptively undermine Netanyahu before the Israeli prime minister could present his case on the Iran negotiations.

"On the contrary. The steady stream of slights and insults turned an irritant into an international event and vastly increased the speech’s audience and reach. Instead of dramatically unveiling an Iranian nuclear deal as a fait accompli, Obama must now first defend his Iranian diplomacy.". . .

Obama’s petulant response was: “The prime minister didn’t offer any viable alternatives.” But he just did: conditional sunset, smaller infrastructure. And if the Iranians walk away, then you ratchet up sanctions, as Congress is urging, which, with collapsed oil prices, would render the regime extremely vulnerable.

Ron Fournier: Hillary Clinton Still Doesn't Get It

First we must define our terms; Krauthammer on the term "Clintonian"   He said t"he scandal over Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email account and server during her time at the State Department is classic Clinton, saying the term “Clintonian was invented” for the “fine distinctions between legal and illegal” seen in the case."

Hillary goes full Clintonian with midnight tweet

. . . "In classic Clintonian doublespeak, Hillary tweeted just before midnight last night that she really, truly, wanted everyone to see her emails, so she told the State Department to release them.

"But the issue is not what she turned over to State, but what she didn’t. Hillary’s team selected what was turned over to the State Department, so her tweet is a complete distraction that doesn’t address the problem:" . . .

National Journal   "March 5, 2015 A cornered Clinton is a craven Clinton, which is why we should view Hillary Rodham Clinton's latest public relations trick with practiced skepticism. "I want the public to see my email," she tweeted Wednesday night. "I asked State to release them. They said they will review them for release as soon as possible."

"If she wants us to see her email, why did she create a secret account stored on a dark server registered at her home?

"If she wants us to see her email, why didn't she give State all of her email rather than a self-censored fraction of the correspondence?

"If she wants us to see her email, Clinton should turn over every word written on her dark account(s) for independent vetting. Let somebody the public trusts decide which emails are truly private and which ones belong to the public." . . .

Abraham Lincoln: 'The Judgments of the Lord'

American Thinker

Second Inaugural Address

. . . "Abolitionist editor and orator Frederick Douglass that day entered the White House, the first time a black man was an honored guest an Inaugural reception. The president asked him his opinion of the address. “Mr. Lincoln, it was a sacred effort.”

"Lincoln called America “the last best hope of man on earth.” Yet in our time, in our land, a thousand unborn children are beheaded daily by an organization that is sheltered and funded by our own taxes. This dread toll deprives our people of genius and industry. Every child born in America has the potential to earn a million dollars.

"We know the truth about these unborn millions. “Ultrasound has made it impossible to deny that that thing in the womb is a human being,” writes Time magazine’s Joe Klein. We have seen the evidence of Klein’s dictum in practical effect.

"We agree with Lincoln that “nothing stamped in the divine image was sent into the world to be trod upon.” And yet we proceed as if the judgments of the Lord are not intended for us, and that His justice will sleep forever."  More

Brother of Christian Martyrs Thanks Isis

Revelation 20: 4;  New American Standard Bible   "Then I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony of Jesus and because of the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received the mark on their forehead and on their hand; and they came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years."

The Coptic Egyptian Orthodox Diocese of Los Angeles, Southern California and Hawaii
had Tony Rezk make an icon of the the 21 Coptic Egyptian Men who were
beheaded by the hands of the the ISIS in Libya last week. More at the picture link.

"This is from Christianity Today: The brother of two of the 21 Coptic Christians slaughtered by ISIS beasts in Libya thanked the slavering Islamist murderers because the video of their damnable atrocity included the dying martyrs’ final words of Christian faith:

Speaking on a live prayer and worship programme on Christian channel SAT-7 ARABIC, Beshir Kamel said that he was proud of his brothers Bishoy Estafanos Kamel (25) and Samuel Estafanos Kamel (23) because they were “a badge of honour to Christianity”.

Harrowing scenes of the murders have been seen around the world. The last words of some of those killed were “Lord Jesus Christ”.

Beshir Kamel thanked ISIS for not editing out the men’s declaration of belief in Christ because he said this had strengthened his own faith. He added that the families of the ex-patriate workers are “congratulating one another” and not in despair: “We are proud to have this number of people from our village who have become martyrs,” he told the programme.

He said: “Since the Roman era, Christians have been martyred and have learned to handle everything that comes our way. This only makes us stronger in our faith because the Bible told us to love our enemies and bless those who curse us.”

"In my Revolting Truth video last week, I remarked what good news it was for the victims of the ISIS murderers that Barack Obama says Islamist terror is not an existential threat. But of course that’s pure satire on my part.

"The real good news for the Coptics is the promise of Christ: “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.' ”

Bibi’s grand slam: Boxing in Obama on Iran’s nukes

John Podhoretz

. . . "Obama’s own national security mouthpiece, Ben Rhodes, has said the White House views a deal with Iran as the “biggest thing President Obama will do in his second term on foreign policy.”

"Obama’s fit of pique against Netanyahu has led to a man-to-man showdown that will likely complicate that “biggest thing” immensely.

"Netanyahu yesterday laid out, calmly and comprehensively, the reasons the deal is likely to be a bad one — and he had not only an audience of Americans vastly larger than he would’ve had if the president hadn’t had his hissy fit, but also the ear of the audience that matters most in this regard.

"That audience is the United States Senate.

"And his audience heard him."   Read the full article

Missing Inaction   . . . "Presidential hopeful and alleged Native American princess Elizabeth "Running Gag" Warren was among the dozens of Dems who boycotted Netanyahu's speech in order to show their support for Obama. Or maybe their support for a nuclear Iran, which is basically the same thing." . . .

"But it's unforgivable that they've chosen to play politics by insulting and ignoring a critically important American ally." . . .

About [Hillary's] Private Email Server Built to Erase Messages (But Not For Security) ... Yeah, You Guessed It, It's Owned By a Muslim Company

Infidel Bloggers Alliance

"To summarize: according to DomainTools.com, the domain clintonemail.com has been hosted by Confluence Networks since 12/22/2011, more than three years. Confluence Networks, based out of the British Virgin Islands, has only existed as a domain (confluence-networks.com) since April 2011, appears to be closely related to a Dubai-based media advertising firm, and has always had its domain name managed by PrivacyProtect.org, a registration privacy firm that lists addresses out of Luxembourg and Australia, but gives a phone number apparently out of Denmark, and that shows up repeatedly in connection with fraud, scam, and spam-related domains."

Campus Reform

"In the future, close attention may be paid to the content published by Students for a Conservative Voice to ensure that any material that is produced with student fee funds does not compromise the cultural harmony of the campus."   

 . . . "Sadly, this is not the first time that the Minnesota Republic has had to deal with censorship issues at the U of M. Earlier this year, a stack of our publication was found in the garbage next to our newsstand. Our newsstands have also been vandalized and signs promoting the Minnesota Republichave been ripped up and thrown on the ground.

"The Minnesota Republic has dealt with all of this, while the U of M has stood by and allowed it to happen. Whether it is offensive speech or not, all speech on a public university campus should be protected." . . .

Obama takes inside hit from new Defense Secretary

Legal Insurrection
3-year timeline for ISIS campaign “political”

"Barack Obama is fighting a losing battle to defend his foreign policy—and the latest blow has come from inside his own cabinet.

"Today, new Defense Secretary Ash Carter went on the record as a critic of the three year plan to defeat ISIS contained in President Obama’s request for use of continued military force in the Middle East.

“ 'I wouldn’t assure anyone that this will be over in three years or that the campaign will be completed in three years,” Carter said, before admitting that he understands why that sort of timeline was included in the request." . . .
. . .
"Carter has done more here than challenge a talking point; what he’s done is shine light on the non-strategy used by the Administration to cook up this authorization. Their choices had nothing to do with the needs of the mission, but everything to do with what would make Obama look good before an increasingly hostile audience."

THE GREAT, AMAZING, INCOMPARABLE STAN EVANS IS DEAD

Ann Coulter
"If and when Congress votes on a new immigration bill -- whatever the "triggers," timetables or other provisos -- the real issue to be decided will be the same as it has been from the beginning. That issue is whether the Republican Party, dazed from a daily pounding by the Washington press corps, will agree to commit political suicide by enfranchising 11 plus million illegal aliens on U.S. soil, the vast majority of whom will soon be casting Democratic ballots." 

. . . "I can't remember Stan being on the wrong side of any issue -- including when he was screaming from the rooftops that Republicans' work was not done just because they had managed to block Hillarycare. 

"The GOP argument that "America has the best health care in the world!" may have sufficed to stop Hillarycare, but it was not going stop national health care forever. Fix it, he said. Make it market-based. Allow competition. Otherwise, some other Democrat would come along and dump socialized medicine on the country. 

"He was right about that, and he's right about immigration being the most dangerous threat to America's survival since the Cold War. Immigration, Stan wrote a few years ago, "is strictly about the votes, and nothing but the votes. All the rest is sham and smokescreen. Obama and his party want their 70 percent of these 11-plus million illegals and will stop at nothing to get it." 

"Two weeks ago, he told me not to give up. And neither should you, America. "

A flustered Marie Harf is grilled on Clinton’s private email

Legal Insurrection

. . . "Harf’s latest mess comes to us from a press conference held earlier today. Reporters asked if the Department of State could say with certitude that Clinton’s private email was never used to share classified information. DOS’s response? “It’s not really a pertinent question.”

“ 'Do you have anything further on whether there’s going to be any kind of comprehensive review on the contents of these emails or how it is you’ve reached the decision that there is no classified information included?” asks a reporter." . . .

From the comments to this post:

Marie Harf is the perfect spokeswoman for this administration.
Arrogant, dismissive, condescending, and above all, stupid and intellectually incurious enough to never think or deviate from the talking points given to her or ask for any information other than what her masters see fit giving her.
It really takes a special kind of person to deliver unbelievably stupid statements with the kind of arrogance Harf does.
