...and how many times do you think the U.S. has tried to break into Vladimir Putin's private e-mails? O Kim Jong Un's? or Benjamin Netanyahu's? Probably a lot more than five times.

Point is, everybody does this now, including us. It's the dark side of diplomacy and national (in)security. In our country you hear about these attempts because we have a free press. In other countries they hush it up and the news is suppressed. But cyber-warfare is everywhere and the U.S. certainly does its share.

the point is her private email did not have the protection the government system had. If they or someone else broke in or not, HRC put delicate information on the front seat of her car and left the keys in the ignition....maybe she just got lucky as opposed to outwitting russian hackers?

We'll set aside the lies that her email was never hacked. Imagine, her tech support, claimed they were never hacked so obviously they didn't know they were hacked. Generates a lot of confidence in her judgement and management of her techies. Management that would have been cared for by the government system. I mean she said she was so busy with Russia and China and the middle east she didn't have time to use the government system so she decided to heire people and contract work out to create her own system.

Say what???

Right, I was so busy I didn't have time to go to the store to buy a frozen turkey for dinner, so I drove 50 miles and spent a week in the woods to try and shoot a turkey for dinner.

Silly response. Vlad doesn't use a private server ... apples and oranges.

You are arguing that she was hacked simply because the attempted was made, not because of any actual evidence that she actually was hacked.

But im still wondering what does this matter, since we know for a fact President Obama's government secured email was hacked.

They could have just gone to work for the company that "managed" the server. Opps. Maybe they did. LOL

So the answer is no, Russia could not hack into Hilary's email.

Russian hackers try to break into many servers. That is what they do.

And an even sillier response. Unless you're a top KGB agent or sleeping with the ex-Mrs. Putin you have no idea what IT he has at his command.

My point stands. Cyber-warfare is raging and everybody does it -- or tries to. No one should be the least bit surprised that someone tried to hack Hillary, especially since the U.S. is continuously trying to hack everybody else. And the idea that anyone's servers (including the government's) are absolutely unbreachable displays a towering lack of sophistication. With enough time -- and perhaps some inside help -- anybody's system is vulnerable.
