Hillary Clinton’s legal adviser warns her — Time to lawyer up
New York Post ^ | October 3rd, 2015 | Ed Klein

Posted on 10/03/2015 5:53:27 PM PDT by Mariner

One of the Clintons’ oldest and most trusted legal advisers has urged Hillary to hire a criminal defense attorney to represent her in case she’s indicted for mishandling classified documents on her private e-mail server and for lying under oath.

The adviser, who has been a Clinton confidant for more than 30 years, laid out his concerns about Hillary’s legal exposure in a wide-ranging interview.

“This e-mail thing is spiraling out of control,” he said. “To paraphrase John Dean of Watergate fame, it’s a cancer on her candidacy.

“Frankly,” he continued, “I am used to my advice on legal matters being taken very seriously and acted upon by the Clintons. I’ve told them repeatedly that this FBI e-mail investigation could go in a very dangerous direction very quickly.

“I think Bill takes the matter seriously. But Hillary is still acting as though it’s a political smear job by right-wing zealots.”

This is a long time coming, but possible proof that karma exists. This woman engaged in underhanded methods to attempt to bring down Nixon. It’s fitting that through her habit of unlawfulness, she may have ensnared herself finally.

Hmmm, I was just in another thread in a totally different context where there was a conversation about Psycho (non-silent, capital P) eyes, and I daresay P!-syco (non-silent P, again), and looky here.

Total P!-sycho face.

" What is a felonous feminist to do?

Are you sure you really want an answer to that question, given the proclivities of this one in particular?

Since Hillary is entitled to lifetime Secret Service protection as President Clinton’s wife, would agents have to accompany her to prison if she were convicted and sentenced?

A law forbidding her to run again is a Bill of Attainder and is unlawful.

Only if the law was passed to specifically apply to her. But the law the poster referenced is already on the books, and the prohibition on holding federal office applies to anyone guilty of violating it. However, it could be argued that it doesn't apply to elective office, only appointed and civil service positions.

The classified e-mail is very serious, but the Benghazi/arming ISIS treason is extremely serious and that is the original intent for requesting the e-mails for that investigation.

Uh oh. Guess she isn’t getting out of the her campaign fast enough for O and VJ.

Better be prepared to dump all you know to every media, even the Fox network (only slightly better than the MSM and mostly because of Lou Dobbs) all in one day.

That’s probably your only hope, Hillary.

True that. They make it difficult for a layman to apply the law. I appreciate your clarification.

Hillary’s problem is she CAN’T lawyer up even if she wanted to, because it would make her look even more guilty than she looks now. After all, you generally only lawyer-up if you’ve broken the law.

Right now no one trusts her, and that won’t improve if she’s indicted. Voters will draw their own conclusions.

I hope you are right but I fear you are wrong. The Democrats and the press don't care about her crimes anymore than they cared about Bill's crimes.

WND- 09/07/2015 Hillary covered up Bill's rapes, sex with 'underage girls'
”......................Roger Stone, a seasoned political operative and pundit. A veteran of eight national presidential campaigns, he served as a senior campaign aide to three Republican presidents before leaving the GOP for the Libertarian Party.

His book, “The Clintons’ War on Women,” as “The definitive expose’ on Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton. Raw, shocking and true.”

ROGER STONE: The mainstream media have suppressed the shocking truth about the Clintons and the way they have climbed over the backs of innocent women, men and children in their quest for power and wealth. Most people who read this book will learn shocking facts for the first time. Clinton’s apologists will try to dismiss it as “old news.” News is not “old” to those who never heard it. The book is not about Whitewater or Monica Lewinsky and Bill Clinton and a cigar. It is the true story of serial rape, intimidation, violence, terror tactics, drugs, lies, greed, cover-up and ambition. It’s blunt, ugly and shocking. It’s the definitive expose on Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton. Bill and Hillary Clinton are the penicillin-resistant syphilis of our political system.

…………….……..”

Obama will close the door on Hillary when it is the most advantageous time for Joe Biden to “save the Demonic-Rat party.”

Obama has already thrown her under the bus. The only thing in question is when he and Valarie Jarrett start the engine and put it in drive.

I pray Hillary is the vengeful megalomaniac that I think she is. This could be fun.
