I hope everyone realizes that this whole email thing is a modern-day version of

stripping the witch naked and parading her through the streets.

It's no accident that no male governmental emailer has ever been subject to such intrusive and public scrutiny.

The two previous Secretaries of State did exactly the same thing (Powell and rice -- rice is a woman, though a republican).

Cheney and the gang also used a private server and "lost" literally millions of emails regarding, among other things, the lies that got us into the Iraq war.


Oh, and Cheney deliberately outed an undercover agent, so that's their regard for classified information.


Never mind! Hillary's admin didn't install the latest Microsoft update, so, jail her!
