Meet "Snopes." I am not joking. These are the 2 people who began and run the Snopes "fact-checking" website. They are Barbara and David Mikkelson of California. Again-- I repeat, this is not a joke. You are looking at "Snopes." That is their cat.

Even when information is fully discussed in the open press, it’s still a major crime to CONFIRM it in public.

their logic, we can’t know it is classified because it is classified, since we can’t prove it true, it is false

CNN’s Starr: Clinton’s Answer On Nuke Launch Time Used ‘Extremely Classified’ Info
breitbart.com ^ | Oct 20, 2016

Posted on 10/21/2016, 12:44:35 AM by Helicondelta

On Thursday’s broadcast of “CNN Newsroom,” CNN Pentagon Correspondent Barbara Starr reported that Democratic presidential nominee former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s statement about the time it takes to launch nuclear weapons is “extremely classified,” and while there is a lot of information available to public on what the process is for launching nuclear weapons, “if you know information to be classified, and you’re a government official, even if it’s in the open source, even if it’s on the Internet, you are not supposed to disclose it.”

She further stated, “the bottom line is, the US military, not especially thrilled to be discussing in precise detail what it takes to launch nuclear weapons.”

Way to destroy your credibility Snopes

The weird thing I thought of with all of this: What if she came out and said something about "the UFO that crashed in Roswell". Now you can argue that these "claims" have been common knowledge and available for anybody to see. But her acknowledgement in the position she is in would be a national security breach nonetheless.

The same would go for the four minute response time. People could CLAIM it was four minutes for years. Officials actually ACKNOWLEDGING it is a different story altogether.

Yup, Snopes comes up top on pinko-Google. And the Snopes piece is a huge lie. They address only other’s comments on how long it takes to determine if a strike against us is happening being classified. They do NOT address what Hillary said - how long it takes from order to launch.

Snopes even admits they’re lying (diverging slightly, LOL) with “At this point the substance of the claim diverges slightly, from holding that it takes four minutes to launch nuclear weapons once the President has given the order to do so, to holding that the President has four minutes to decide whether to launch nuclear weapons once he’s been informed that a nuclear attack on the U.S. is imminent.”

To defend liars, one must also lie.
