Hillary Clinton: "Hold Me Accountable" (LOL)

OKAY … TURN YOURSELF IN!

Hillary Clinton – who should probably be looking at the inside of a jail cell right now – told CNN this week she wants Americans to “hold her accountable.”

Really?  That’s a pretty funny comment coming from a woman who conducted all sorts of taxpayer business (including top secret taxpayer business) on her private email server.  Last week, The New York Times reported that twenty-two emails recovered from Clinton’s server would not be released publicly by the U.S. State Department because they contained classified information.

This marked the first time the federal government has acknowledged that Clinton – who ran the agency from 2009-13 – handled “top secret” material on her private server.

Oh, in addition to those 22 emails – the State Department announced that eighteen emails exchanged between Clinton and U.S. president Barack Obama would not be released, either.

But yeah … let’s “hold her accountable.”

“This is very much like Benghazi,” Clinton told ABC News. “Republicans are going to continue to use it, beat up on me. I understand that.  That’s the way they are.”

Meanwhile former State Department inspector general Howard Krongard told The New York Post he believed Clinton’s establishment of a private email server was a “premeditated” effort to circumvent federal open records laws.

“This was all planned in advance,” he said, arguing that Clinton’s private email server represented “a change in the standard” used by previous secretaries.

“This eliminates claims by the State Department that they were unaware of her private email server until later,” Krongard told the paper. “How else was she supposed to do business without email?”

Indeed …

But again … let’s “hold her accountable.”

We’ve always felt the real scandal associated with Clinton’s email server wasn’t necessarily the lack of transparency – intentional or otherwise – but rather the corporate cronyism and pay-to-play warmongering (which appear to be the focus of another botched coverup).

Either way … her claiming that she wishes to be “held accountable” is laughable.

Despite the scandal, Clinton is expected to win a narrower-than-expected victory over independent socialist U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders in early-voting Iowa this week, although polls in early-voting New Hampshire show Sanders is likely to win in the Granite State.

“Hold Me Accountable”…that’s an oxymoron.

You can’t hold a Clinton accountable.

You know in the 90’s I always felt the Republicans over dramatized their misdeeds and were way to far ahead of reality to their evil deeds. Then the Clintons left the White House and I’ll be damned if they haven’t done their very best job of catching up to the hyperbole.

I know people on this site love to bash Hillary. Fair enough.

However, when you examine the evidence, not circumstantial, but concrete evidence going all the way back to Whitewater up to Benghazi and now the emails…there really is no case.

She’s never been indicted, never been arrested, never been charged and never served any time in prison. You can spend a lot of time on the internet doing some arm chair investigating…as I’ve done…and what you find is the common sentence…”insufficient evidence that Clinton had engaged in criminal wrongdoing.”

Is she out of touch? Sure. Is she secretive? Sure. Does she fake it to make it? Sure. However, none of this rises to the actual allegations leveled against her (more often than not by GOP bodies of control). She is one gigantic white elephant (no pun intended).

Ed February 1, 2016 at 7:09 pm

Uh, maybe her lack of being indicted and convicted speaks much more about the state of a corrupt American governmental structure – to which many America are actually now rebelling against in the form of Donald Trump – than any indication of her supposed innocence. But anyway, I enjoyed your diatribe.

So what? Organized crime has been employed by the corrupt American governmental structure before to advance “civil rights” in the 1960s. Besides, when Trump or Cruz win, that sweet luck that Hillary has (and that you’re referring to) will run out and she will rightfully be charged, convicted, and sent to jail for violating secrecy laws. Further, on a different note, we’ll also eventually find out that Obama claimed foreign status in college to receive exemptions to get in and stay in the Ivy League. Thus is the state of your corrupt Jackass party.

SMH February 1, 2016 at 8:39 pm

You sure are you going to be disappointed.

Dick C Normis February 1, 2016 at 8:44 pm

Ok, couple of things.

I love how you put civil rights in quotes. V funny…well not really.

Secondly, Cruz is not a natural born US citizen and despite his attempts to white wash this, he’s more “illegal” than Obama wasn’t. He very well could end up at the Supreme Court to establish whether he is eligible to even be president.

Now, I’m not saying Hillary has done anything illegal…nor am I saying she hasn’t (in this case) but she doesn’t help herself by constantly invoking the shroud of secrecy and obfuscation. There may be nothing to any of this, but people will ask…”how come you didn’t release everything from the start and save us the trouble?”

Lastly, I’ve seen numerous urban legends about Barry. Born in Kenya, he’s a muslim, he was sworn in on the Koran, he’s the anti-christ and even that he’s a good golfer. I’ll be here for you when they finally find that last piece of missing evidence to prove he was born in Kenya all along and you can troll me all you want.

Ed February 1, 2016 at 9:10 pm

The funny thing is your Jackass prez has never released important data about his college career. Why is that? I mean, what president doesn’t release their transcripts?!; and even more telling, what media walks away from such a potentially big story?! (other than a corrupt media). Perhaps it’s more simple than your seemingly propagandist intent…perhaps he really did violate rules/laws related to his college entrance – and perhaps like Hillary’s luck that you allude to – he’s simply being covered by a corrupt government, corrupt media, and folks such as yourself.

Dick C Normis February 1, 2016 at 9:19 pm

Dude…I can’t do all your debunking for you. You’re going to have to do some of the work. You can get started here:

http://www.factcheck.org/2012/07/obamas-sealed-records/

Ed February 1, 2016 at 9:45 pm

Bwahahaha… you cited a source, and yet, you didn’t even bother to note that his college records are still sealed. Why are they sealed?!?!?!?! Furtheg, I never once said that they were court sealed; regardless, that doesn’t mean that he didn’t commit a crime as there is still a chance that he may have committed fraud (if he claimed foreign status to take advantage of admission and Fed financial privileges) and frankly, his whole college situation needs to be investigated (but of course, a corrupt government won’t do such). But anyway, keep peddling your jackass bias and nonsense.

SMH February 1, 2016 at 10:12 pm

HUH? there is still a chance = Like in Dumb and Dumber

SECOND REQUEST TO READ THE DAMN ARTICLE

Claims #1, 2 and 4, college records. Obama’s college records are not “sealed” by a court order, as this graphic would have you believe. It would be illegal under federal law (the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974) for Occidental, Columbia or Harvard Law School to give any former student’s records to reporters or members of the public without that person’s specific, written permission. Obama hasn’t released them, but neither have other presidential candidates released their college records. George W. Bush’s grades at Yale eventually became public, but only because somebody leaked them to the New Yorker magazine. Bush himself refused to release them, according to a 1999 profile in the Washington Post.

You may not mind being lied too but then that’s just you. Now, come back with Bush lied and people died…circle those wagons.

The hearings were a joke both Republicans and Democrats looked stupid.

I believe there was no clear account of what happened immediately afterwards. No, the Republicans look stupid.

Never said I did believe that and it was made clear during her testimony and other hearings that wasn’t what happened.

idcydm February 1, 2016 at 9:04 pm

So she lied, right? Tell me why did the administration continue the charade, they knew at the time it wasn’t true. Could it be it was a political decision?

Benghazi!!!! February 1, 2016 at 9:18 pm

Hillary had to rely on what she was being told – she is not the CIA or military. It is my understanding that she called it a terrorist attack long before Obama did. About a week afterwards. I’m sure politics played into it, but at the same time I doubt the government tells us everything immediately after such a tragedy. Even local law enforcement agencies don’t tell us details/motives of a crime till they know for certain or at trial. And for some people once the testimony and evidence are revealed they still will not believe it.

idcydm February 1, 2016 at 9:42 pm

Give me a break, “rely on what she was being told”, you believe the administration didn’t know? The administration knew it was a terrorist attack before the attack was over, my thirty plus years of Military Service tells me so.

So it’s OK they played politics with Benghazi. You are right the government doesn’t tell us everything but they did tell us it was a video.

I was elated to see Joe Scarborough check Andrea Mitchel this morning. He refuted her accusation that Hillary had to have a provable motive & an awareness that she was committing a crime. At every opportunity she questions Bernie’s right to challenge Hillary’s e-mail defense. Poor narcissistic Chris Matthews was so intimidated by Joe that he had the look of a lost soul & remained mute. He’s usually a strident Hillary die hard.

It is not just that Trump is losing, he is just getting 25%. This is a Trump disaster. Trump needed 30%. The biggest loser is the pollsters.

Trump quote:
Iowans are a bunch of losers. The state is a big failure. Your team couldn’t even win tbe conference, then to get whipped by Stanford in the Rose Bowl.. Really, nerd university if there ever was one. When I become President, you can forget about the ethanol mandate. Your state has more hogs than people, though the difference in appearance is negligible.
