Tell just enough of the story to get people looking at someone else other than her. Lying by omission. Lie about that lie knowing you'll most likely have to lie again to hide that lie. Hillary's default setting. It all depends on what your definition of "is" is, I guess.

Give it up.


the whole world's intell agencies agreed, sadaam did indeed use wmds against his people and Iraians and did his best to convince the world he had them.


the coalition of nations GWB had was more extensive and involved than any 'coalition of nations' obama ever claimed to have and in name only.


We should have invaded Iran instead of Iraq.


GWB outwitted hillary? GWB pulled the wool over HRC? Imagu\ine what a real enemy would do to her.


She'd press the red nuke button thinking it was another RED RESET BUTTON and tell the surviving American people her dog did it.


If lying is a problem, then you cannot vote for HRC or it reflects poorly on you.

You are right he got bad intel and because of it he made his case on WMDs and along with the President and his staff duped a lot of people who relied on their expertise into voting for a war that should never have happened, we have the chaos in the middle east today as a direct result. In the meantime we have the right trying desperately to make a strawman out of a few mislabeled emails by Hillary Clinton.

Revisiting Clinton and Classified Information
A very POOR attempt to try and TWIST the facts.

Those 3 emails were FOUND by going through old State Dept files and the "deleted" emails they reconstructed from her server.

They are IN ADDITION to the ones she "turned over".

I Know, details, details, details!

https://www.fbi.gov/news/pressrel/pr...-e-mail-system

The FBI also discovered several thousand work-related e-mails that were not in the group of 30,000 that were returned by Secretary Clinton to State in 2014. We found those additional e-mails in a variety of ways. Some had been deleted over the years and we found traces of them on devices that supported or were connected to the private e-mail domain. Others we found by reviewing the archived government e-mail accounts of people who had been government employees at the same time as Secretary Clinton, including high-ranking officials at other agencies, people with whom a Secretary of State might naturally correspond.


This helped us recover work-related e-mails that were not among the 30,000 produced to State. Still others we recovered from the laborious review of the millions of e-mail fragments dumped into the slack space of the server decommissioned in 2013.

With respect to the thousands of e-mails we found that were not among those produced to State, agencies have concluded that three of those were classified at the time they were sent or received, one at the Secret level and two at the Confidential level. There were no additional Top Secret e-mails found. Finally, none of those we found have since been “up-classified.”

Hillary tried to pin her email scandal on Colin Powell supposedly recommending her to use private email at a dinner for Madeline Albright.

Powell points out that Hillary had already been using her private email server for a year BEFORE he told Hillary to use a private email for NONCLASSIFIED info. Powell also sent Hillary an email describing how he used private email for NONCLASSIFIED into.

Key points:
-Powell said he used private email for non-classified
-Powell told Hillary he did this 1 year after Hillary had already set up her private server
-Powell didn't have his own private server nor did he tell Hillary to have one

Colin Powell Hillary Clinton Him Email Scandal, 'She Was Using for Year' : People.com
I suppose the usual Hillary right or wrongers have defended her passing the buck by now, but fyi:


"A State Department inspector general report released in May 2016 said that Mr. Powell and other senior officials had used personal email accounts for official business, but that by the time Mrs. Clinton took office, the rules were clear that using a private server in such a manner was neither allowed nor encouraged because of “significant security risks.”

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/19/us...mail.html?_r=0

The glaring differences between Clinton and prior officials' use of personal email is so obvious, in both volume and procedure, her defenders on this issue should be embarrassed.

There were 3 classified emails, yes some emails were deleted going back several years so what's your point?
