A most excellent parody, cva66....and a truer parody was never composed!

I had to vent somehow. Yelling would upset my dogs. LOL.

If it was official business there’s a good chance there are email CC and BCC distributions that may appear on other drives within the department, as well as the original recipient, whoever it was.

If the “crashed” hard drive still exists, a forensic examination would show what caused it to crash and when.

If the drive does not exist, but every other drive in the Agency has been preserved, that would be proof of a willing effort to destroy evidence.

Either way, somebody is going to be in a lot of trouble.

I may harbor contempt for certain members of congress but not of “congress”. For congress is the voice of the people... we lose that, we lose all. So hold your nose for the stinky ones and support those who are trying to bring light onto the corruption.

Our dear reader will forever be known in my mind as “Smidgens”

I will not ever hold my nose for stinky ones again.

And in congress, they all stink.

You can hold your nose if you want to, I’m not going to.

That is exactly how we have lost all already.

How many emails is the equivalent of 12 minutes of lost tape?

[Greysard]

So if they (an agency) has failed to do so, those who are accountable for the data/information should already be changing clothes... You know, orange IS the new black...

Failure to do his work is not a crime. It is a cause for dismissal - but that's nothing, compared to conviction of many influential people.

At most one can allege criminal conspiracy and obstruction of justice... but those charges also need proof. If all interested parties clam up, there isn't much that the law can do - assuming that the law is interested in doing anything.

I guess you misread my post or have no reading comprehension.

[chris37]

So hold your nose for the stinky ones

No, I read your post just fine, and I understood it just fine.

I think it is you who failed to comprehend my post, so here let me bold it for you so that the words might penetrate better:

I will not ever hold my nose for stinky ones again. And in congress, they all stink. You can hold your nose if you want to, I’m not going to. That is exactly how we have lost all already.

Comprehend that, drone, because I swear before God that I am done with the stinking GOP.

In the days of the Roman Republic, when the “Ceasars” became emperors, this is what happened. Soon the Senate was nothing but a status symbol, they had no real responsibility. the exact same thing is happening here.

The most transparent administration ever. Here's the emails you wanted....
