1. The violation of the law dealt with destruction of papers of historical significance.
2. The Bush emails were separate from official emails. These were personal email addresses.
Aw, not the “Bush precedent” tactic. As inapplicable as this is, they continue to cite Bush after eight years of Obama, and Hillary did what she did as part of Obama’s administration.
... and used for what? For classified government business? Probably not. If true it is more likely the private email was used for republican party business so that government email systems were not used for political purposes etc I believe they are supposed to separate those communications and use different systems.
This story is worthless as written.
If all Nina did was give blow jobs she’d never get pregnant and need an abortion.
Anyway he can go down , as well as, his entire family for all I care now.
I though the Bush Administration had two email servers, a government server for official government use and the RNC server for party business?

If GW Bush did anything like what Hillary did, don’t you think Obama would have been crowing about it 7 - 8 years ago or while campaignin? This is a nothingburger being brought out now as some lame attempt at equivalence to try and put the Witch’s troubles in a memory hole.
I say that the Obama Justice Department had had seven plus years to take action on this if there was anything illegal done, yet they haven’t.
They seem to be comparing the RNC server and email to the President, with an office holder running her own server. Short articlr:

Et tu quoque ad hominem fallacy.
Clinton broke the law. IF what Bush did was wrong, it doesn’t excuse Hillary’ crimes.
Gin up an investigation on George, Newsweak.
Nothing will come of it either during this lawless administration.
Ask them if the know how many emails Obama lost seeing as how no one has asked him to turn over any... because up until recently it wasn’t even known that he lied about knowing Hillary was using a non gov server.
Why does she need kneepads?
The emails concerned cleaning out the appointed judges which isn’t illegal or involved with classified information.
Second, the requests for emails were improper in the first place: The President has plenary power to fire US attorneys and does not have to justify to Congress or anyone else why he has done so. Bush should have simply told Congress to bugger off. Bill Clinton demanded the resignation of EVERY US Attorney on the day he took office. So the demand for the communications was the usual double standard.
Third, the question of interest to Congress was whether the firings had been politically motivated; that is why they involved demands of email on unsecured servers. The President's political business -- as opposed to official US government business -- is not required by law, executive order, or even government policy to be conducted on secure servers. In fact, political consultations have never been conducted via government systems, and most government workers consider it unethical to do so, and depending on the nature of their work and the type of politics involved, it may even be illegal.
Fourth, again, whether or not the President's decision to fire some US attorneys was grounded in political considerations or not, there is nothing unethical about that. What Bush should have told Congress was to go f**k themselves, and he should have reminded the press not only of his legitimate, lawful authority, but of what Bill Clinton had done eight years before. But he was doing the New-Tone-Two-Step.
Fifth, there was no classified material involved.
Sixth, we actually do NOT know how many of Clinton's emails involved classified material. There were 110 classified documents simply in the emails the FBI was able to recover.
But note that the FBI did not really make any serious effort to recover documents, and tens of thousands of them have still never been recovered.
Given that Hillary®! exclusively used a private server for all of her business, the number of actually classified documents is more likely in the thousands.
Seventh: your friends are morons if they think it's OK to compromise US national security "just a little." If you've ever been in the military or intelligence organizations, or done classified work for DOJ, you will know that a great deal of our classified material is compartmentalized. Many people in that position have had the experience of discovering -- years later -- that they "heard something about something going on somewhere" that later turned out to be the testing location or plans for the Stealth Bomber, the location of a CIA listening station, the identity of a US agent, foreign mole asset, or what have you.
Our enemies already have access to many of our secrets. By gaining additional intel on just a few bits of information, they may be able to put together a very large picture. And that is very dangerous for your country.
There have even been cases where the classified material, while of little value of itself, was believed used to crack US encryption when the compromised material "in the clear" was compared with intercepted codes.
Eighth, Bush did not use a server to "collect bribes." What the hell are you even talking about?
Finally, let's be clear about something that your idiot friends don't seem to get, and which neither Trump nor the Republicans in Congress have hammered home anywhere near hard enough: The most charitable interpretation of Hillary Clinton's most recent crimes is that she was "extremely careless." She was not "extremely careless" with pieces of paper, or electrons, or even with some kind of abstract matter or concepts. She was not "extremely careless" with cookie recipes or yoga postures.
She was extremely careless with US National Security, and that means she was "extremely careless" with people's lives. If you've got a son in the military, she was careless with his life. If your daughter or your husband is working for consular operations or in a CIA station she was careless with their lives. If you're just a civilian sitting at a desk minding your own business selling insurance policies, she was potentially careless with your life.
Tell that to your dumbass friends.
BUT IT’S DUBYAS FAULT
blah blah blah....typical leftist drivel
Sorry Nina. Bush isn’t running for president. You might want to get off of your ass and out of the office a little more often. Maybe read a newspaper or something. As far as I know, Bush didn’t have a private server next to the toilet so he could exchange classified emails. You sure are a dumb broad. Geez. No wonder the “media” is going in the toilet.
Well, my first question is .. since the RNC is not a part of the GOVERNMENT .. why would it be required to keep all the emails ..??
It would be talking strategy .. not military plans.
This appears to be another of the LEFT’s usual “same as” kind of stuff. However, the RNC is not a department of the US Govt .. and therefore I don’t think the WH would have any jurisdiction over the RNC’s emails. I’m guessing .. using logic.
It’s not a double standard, because now we know that the Bush Crime Family and the Clinton Crime Family are the same family.
The “four” administrations since January of 1989 are a seamless foreign regime that, having killed thousands of Americans at home and abroad, is trying to keep itself in power to 2020 and beyond, so that it can kill more thousands or even millions of Americans. The last patriot and non-traitor to reside in the White House was Ronald Reagan.
