Hillary Clinton supporters are currently scrambling to minimize the significance of her using a private Gmail address to conduct all of her business as Secretary of State, but in 2007, Clinton herself took a decidedly different tack, saying that secret email accounts shredded the very Constitution of the United States.
Clinton, then running for president, was speaking at the Take Back America conference held by the Campaign for Americas Future, and took the Bush administration to task for alleged violations of constitutional governance.
Our Constitution is being shredded. We know about the secret wiretaps, the secret military tribunals, the secret White House email accounts, Clinton said. Its a stunning record of secrecy and corruption, of cronyism run amok. It is everything our founders were afraid of, everything our Constitution was designed to prevent.
Clinton, like many other critics, bashed those private White House email accounts at the time as a way to circumvent public scrutiny, the same charge Clinton squarely denies right this very moment.
Clintons sole-use of Gmail and privately-owned, in-house server are not the only issues of government transparency Clinton seems to have shifted on since her 2007 speech. For example, despite condemning secret wiretaps in her speech, Clinton has recently refused to say whether she supports giving the federal government the authority to conduct searches without a warrant.
Lol - I hopped on here to post the same thing! She must be loaded by now and mad as mad can be. I hope there are no lamps within reach, and that Billy Boy is far away...maybe even on Little St. James Island for stress relief.
What we are watching is something I never expected to see. I think the Muslim wants her to go down.
Yes, the Obama camp is against the Clinton camp.
Obama won in 2008, and they mean to win again to preserve Obama’s legacy.
I am enjoying seeing the heat turned up on Hillary.
It will get her used to Hell.

Yup. How long will the Clinton’s take muslim poop?
Making some popcorn now. ;)
Let the games begin.
Government officials should be free to use public or secure communications as needed. The question is whether they have the wisdom to discern when and how to use each of the above in the interest of serving the general population. In the real world, subterfuge for the sake of personal gain holds sway. This is totally what motivates Hillary and 95% of the operatives who wish to rule over the rest of us peons.
Unless she does it, of course.
Ho Lee Shiite!!!
Wei Tu Lo!!
