Oh I don't know. Maybe taking in millions of dollars in bribes from foreign leaders and countries in the ruse of a charity foundation and then doing them favors in return as Secretary of State might also be a problem.

So...you are upset that all those emails that were leaked showed Hillary and the DNC in a bad light and exposed how corrupt they are.

No, a hack on American security isn't an exaggeration, it is a major threat to our country and should be fully investigated. So if Hillary's emails are so important to you, as well as Benghazi, why isn't this important to you?

As for an investigation, Obama can't call an investigation, that is the job of Congress to do. It is the Republicans in Congress that needs to call this investigation.

American Security? We are talking about a private server owned by the DNC? LOL

Sounds like it was an insider who leaked the information anyway.

I'm past the "LOCK HER UP", since she refuses to go away, I demand the firing squad.
Instruct the squad to follow her instructions, while some go high, some go low, riddle her from top to bottom...
So you don't care about National Security now? Weird, I would think National Security would be a top priority. And now you would rather see your fascist leader have Clinton executed? That makes sense, what better way to get rid of any political competition is to have them executed.

I can only imagine the things Trump and his supporters will do to this country, but based on what happen to Nazi Germany after they lost the war, I can imagine it won't be good....but at least Trump and all his supporters will deserve the outcome.

And you want an investigation on it? Correct? We both should agree that an investigation is needed regardless of who is at fault for this hack.

I thought Hillary was fine with some of Trump's tax info getting illegally released...now she is in a tizzy over her campaign's corruption getting revealed - supposedly by Russia hackers.

I can see no reason why they should be entitled to any such information, especially since there is no evidence that there was any outside influence from any foreign government on our election and no hacking of the machines.

There you go. The electoral college is theoretically the last refuge for preserving our democratic process. There's no reason they shouldn't be fully informed.

I mean, how many investigations did the Republicans have on Benghazi? Having the country hacked during an election is far worse than Benghazi.
Just how was the country or election hacked ? That is a nonsensical statement as meaningless as the rabbit hole it pops out of.

They can investigate whatever they want but to have any credibility they need to share the evidence with the public and a road map that leads to the conclusion they draw. How does something that has no conclusive evidence lead to a definite conclusion. Then we have the word intent again. Even with the overwhelming evidence the FBI had they couldn't prove intent.

This is nothing but politics. An attempt to marginalize and delegitimize Trump's victory by the butt hurt on the left and the right along with media that will spin it endlessly which is in there interest but not the public interest.

If they did screw with our elections we basically got what we deserved. We've screwed with theirs enough.
