Quote:Treason isn't the appropriate charge.  After all, she did not intentionally give classified information (directly) to anyone.  However, she clearly (it appears at this point) mis-handled classified information and it appears that she did impede an investigation regarding a possible breach of security.  It also looks like there is a "cover up" regarding this.

 

Again I ask, what if this activity was done by Donald Rumsfeld or Robert Gates, both Secretaries of State under President Bush?  Do you think that it would be a "non-issue"?  Would it be just "democrats foaming at the mouth" calling for an investigation and possible charges?  What would the media do?

I don't think people are ignoring this though outside of right wing news (I presume) they are not claiming it's criminal while the investigation is still ongoing.

 

Aren't there a couple of GOP candidates with their own email issues? How's the media treating that?

 

Regardless it's all a matter of perspective combined with political affiliation. While the non right wing media was blasting Bush, the right wing media was calling anyone who didn't support the Prez unamerican. Interestingly enough they no longer have that stance. What's the point? That the various media sources are politically biased so of course right wing media approaches this more fervently just like left wing media treats right wingers more fervently. They both protect their own. You are smart and I am sure quite aware of this. I am honestly not even sure why you are asking question. I assume you already know the answer.
