Quote:Uh... no.

 

Perhaps you should read the transcript of the speech.  It was more than a "couple dozen emails" that were classified and no, they weren't "deleted at the appropriate time".  In his own words the FBI Director said that there was evidence of potential violation of the law and he went further to say that anyone that does anything similar would face consequences.

I was referring to the "top secret" classified emails, but fine, bring in the hundreds detailed as classified, or first unclassified and then later classified.  They were sitting on a server that had not been correctly secured by the Department of Defense.

 

They were not distributed illegally to sources that had no business getting them.  They were just on the wrong server. BIG difference, though I know not to you.  I'll agree to disagree.

 

As for "deleted at the appropriate time", well, it they hadn't been, this investigation would not have taken so long.  The FBI had to piece together the emails from deleted segments that were still on the servers that Clinton had turned over to them.

 

As I have maintained from Day One, Clinton did something dumb, and that lapse in judgment will disqualify her from office to some.  Just don't tell me the FBI director didn't do his job correctly.
