It was intended to encourage the declassifying of national security information because, "Our democratic principles require that the American people be informed of the activities of their Government."<br /><br />Regards,<br />AnonymouseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1400985529434569506.post-90690516516092182772015-03-12T18:18:46.552-04:002015-03-12T18:18:46.552-04:00Because everyone else seems to be talking about pu...Because everyone else seems to be talking about public records laws, I am glad to see this group talking about national security issues related to Hilary Clinton's email server. Kudos Diplomad!<br /><br />Based on news reports describing how the server itself was set up and maintained we know that it was NOT secure. It was, in effect, a communications portal "transmitting in the clear" for the entirety of Clinton's tenure as SecState. We must assume that every molecule of data that ever transited the server's motherboard also scurried off to Russia, China, Iran, etc.<br /><br />The full significance of this may not be immediately obvious. But consider what intelligence analysts could glean, even if the content of every email were perfectly "vanilla."<br /><br />For starters, they could assemble an email address book with associated human names, all correlated with personal information about the humans themselves. Every email addy would be a new intelligence target for sniffing, spoofing, phishing, or malware. Some of the collected email addresses would be for accounts previously unknown (even, perhaps within the dot-gov/dot-mil domains), and purposefully unpublished.<br /><br />Even without SBU or classified data the Clinton server would produce a bonanza of useful information.<br /><br />If anyone has the time it would be interesting to correlate published accounts of cyberattacks against the U.S. government with the timing of Clinton's email server set up in 2009. There was a massive cyberattack in 2010, as I recall, but I haven't researched it.<br /><br />Other people -- Huma Abedin, in particular -- are reported to have had email accounts on Clinton's server. This, clearly, adds another dimension to the issue of public records laws violations, but adds multiple new dimensions to the national security question.<br /><br />Regards,<br />AnonymouseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1400985529434569506.post-74191958717458398912015-03-12T07:22:39.512-04:002015-03-12T07:22:39.512-04:00What great dogs!

They look like they'd be very fun antidotes to the current insanity. <br /><br />After spending the 90s thinking that one scandal after another was going to be the one that finally sank the Clintons, I've given up hope on that score. I greatly fear the GOP will overplay their hand, Hillary will play the feminist victim card, and just like that we'll be back to the phony War on Women. <br /><br />I'd be interested to read your take on the GOP letter to Iran. I'm sympathetic to their reasons for writing it, but it seems like a bad road to go down.

I wonder if Mrs. Clinton complied with any of those requirements? If yes, there's a paper trail documenting that agreement to follow the rules she broke. If she didn't, it's more proof of her stance that the rules don't apply to her. I hope some IG folks are digging into that angle.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1400985529434569506.post-88564366965808505792015-03-11T18:58:43.153-04:002015-03-11T18:58:43.153-04:00Bad Kerry

I was introduced to State's classified email system at that time and thought its security was overkill. Just the login function was harder than any other email system I had ever used, and it was impossible to send/receive emails from personal accounts. I now realize it was not overkill and am surprised Hillary was able to do what she did with a private server. As a former FOIA worker bee, I would love to be tasked with the review of her email records for possible release. I am confident a lot of her 53,000 "private" emails would not qualify for exemption from the FOIA.Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06981706601001285694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1400985529434569506.post-36301158324093125102015-03-11T11:08:15.737-04:002015-03-11T11:08:15.737-04:00Great dogs indeed! if only people could be as loya...Great dogs indeed! if only people could be as loyal and moral as dogs.

Even if none of these were "classified" (which strains credulity) they must have included SBU material. And any JO knows that is is absolutely forbidden to send Sensitive But Unclassified material to a non-State.Gov account. Why did no one object? Perhaps BuzzFeed has the answer:<br />“There was a distrust of the inevitability of leaks, a distrust of people being loose with email, a distrust of FOIAs,” the current official said, adding that that mistrust seemed misplaced because at the State Department “even people who were deeply disappointed with Syria and Ukraine policy are pretty sympathetic to the Democrats and have a lot of loyalty.” http://www.buzzfeed.com/rosiegray/emails-show-divide-between-clinton-insiders-and-state-depart#.uc0PmG3M8.

She is lying through her teeth.<br />Found it interesting that just before her attempted Jedi Mind Trick (these are not the emails you are looking for) a Bill Clinton spokeshead came out with a Statement saying Billy has used E-Mail twice in his life; once to John Glenn and once to the military in general. Both times back when he was POTUS.<br />30 minutes later She Who Must Be Next claimed the majority of emails were personal, specifically between her and Bill. <br />1 of the 2 is lying; though I suspect both. Hillary about emails to Bill and Bill about only 2 emails.
