The corruption of the Obama administration makes Nixon look like a saint-the incompetence makes Carter look like a genius. Most corrupt, secretive administration in history.
Yet so arrogant they don't even bother to actually try to be secretive. What is so amazing to me is people are still cheer leading for the letter D rather than caring about... oh, little things like trust, character, honesty, keeping promises... etc.
Maybe it isn't arrogance after all; maybe, just maybe, the tipping point has arrived and the ignorant low information voters now outnumber the wise and sensible humans in this country.... on both sides.

That image is chilling. She had that fake smile and sociopathic stare even in her youth.
Clinton made the mistake of ambushing Lynch, not a wise thing but in keeping with his slightly inflated ego problem. Lynch was just being the polite person she is and engaged in a little small talk and pleasantries. Nothing more than that, but good for a little bit of political phony scandal fodder, huh?
I'm not so sure about this whole thing. Does anyone know how the 1 local reporter from the Arizona ABC affiliate just happened to be at the airport to witness this? Who tipped him off to be there? He's getting "attaboys" from the media. Not even suggesting he's knowingly a part of it, just that someone looked for a local dupe for an eyewitness. Until I know how he knew enough to be there, I think it's possible Lynch was looking to recuse herself, expected a brouhaha when the reporter got the scoop of his lifetime, and now has an excuse to say she made a mistake but doesn't think in hindsight that it was proper and now she'll let someone else make the decision. She's actually helped by the people calling for her to step away from the decision. You can't tell me Axelrod needed to say anything, yet he gave his 2 cents on twitter.
Or, I could be totally wrong and both Clinton and Lynch are connivers or stupid and it has just as much to do with the Clinton Foundation as it does with the e-mails.
I utterly agree: it could not look worse, under the circumstances.
However, I take heart in that it is only a motion: the Judge presiding could, and should, deny the motion forthwith.
Finally: Shame on those Republican primary voters. Out of 16 men and women running, you come up with Trump as the nominee. This election should have been a slam dunk for the Republicans. I cannot bring myself, even now, to vote for Trump, but there were several that I would have voted for in November.
Perhaps the Cleveland delegates will dump Trump after all, since the prize is within their reach, if only they have the courage to act.
This is SUCH A COINCIDENCE ... the fact that Loretta and Bill just had a private meeting on an airplane in AZ.
She didn't waste any time did she? You'd think she'd at least have the decency to wait a specific period of time before doing this. These people have no shame. I'd wager a first year law student would know better than to meet privately with the spouse of a government official who was being investigated by the Feds.
It's even worse than that because Bill might end up being criminally charged as well.
He created the Clinton Foundation, which is also being investigated by the "Justice" Department.
What prosecutor would have a secret meeting with a possible defendant and then try to hide that fact?
If the local reporter hadn't found out about it, we would never have known. The FBI and Secret Service agents on the scene did not allow any cameras or recordings.
We keep hearing about these Obama administration officials that have "great integrity" according to everyone -- even conservatives.
Apparently, integrity and proximity to the Boy King don't mix.
Lynch and Comey are supposed to be "straight shooters."
It's funny to hear the Clinton defenders screech about all the time and money spent on investigating Benghazi, the email scandal, and the IRS targeting scandal (not to mention the Fast and Furious and Solyndra scandals) when it is clear that the Obama Administration has stonewalled all legitimate Congressional requests for documents as well as FOIA requests by others.
The country voted for Obama and got Zimbabwe.
In the meantime, Boehner, Cantor, Ryan, McCarthy, McConnell and the other Republican leaders have given new meaning to the term "gutless wonders."
No wonder we have Trump!

clinton was running late, lynch sat around delaying her take off and photos were prohibited....some co wink a dink.
Nothing here to see for the, 'we have to pass it to find out what is in it" crowd. Their curiosity centers have been chemically altered by the kool aid served at the whitehouse.
Lynch has said she won't overrule what the FBI decides about this overblown, contrived and artificial email scandal.
These are Democrats we are talking about, who don't share the systemic corruption that envelopes the Republican Party. There are such things as genuine small talk that happen without the traditional GOP sleaze surrounding such things.
Bill certainly showed poor judgement, and the AG should not have allowed him to speak to her. They both know enough about Republicans to know they would start foaming and frothing, even if they only discussed the weather.
