Your political bias aside, the woman committed multiple crimes, and at least two felonies.

Jeff @1 claims of bias; then cites Fox 'News' contributor Andrew Napolitano to assert that Hillary Clinton "committed multiple crimes."

The linked article typifies the nature of this faux "scandal."

Napolitano writes:

Therein lies the rub. There mere fact that Clinton used a private e-mail account does not establish that she "concealed" so much as a single document from the State Department.

But, for the American hard right, and apparently the corporate media as a whole, there is this quantum leap of logic from Hillary used a private e-mail account to Hillary "concealed" documents from the State Department sans a shred of proof.

Interesting that Jeff @1 makes no reference whatsoever to the Bush/Rove e-mails discussed by Eric Boehlert, or the documented lies of Bill O'Reilly, yet Jeff claims that Brad Friedman and Boehlert have displayed "bias."

Look into the mirror, Jeff.

There is one area in which I strongly disagree with Boehlert.

It is way too early for Eric to declare that Clinton will be the only Democratic candidate. To the contrary, there is every indication that Bernie Sanders will run as a Democrat and challenge Hillary Clinton in the Democratic primaries.

If he does, Sanders has made it clear that his will not engage in a clash of personalities with Hillary Clinton or spend time on such faux "scandals" as e-mails or Benghazi.

Consider this recent YouGov poll, taken in the battleground states: Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Nevada, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.

While the poll specifically relates to Elizabeth Warren, the populist message it measures applies with equal if not greater force to Sanders. The results suggest that a corporate Democratic centrist, like Clinton, as well as any eventual GOP candidate, could prove vulnerable in an "issue-oriented" campaign.

Warren's position that those who steal on Wall Street should serve jail time: 97% agree

94% agreed with Warren's argument that our political system is rigged in favor of the rich and powerful

88% agree with her call to lower interest rates on student loans (94% of Democrats)

80% agree with her proposal to expand Social Security

74% agree with her position on closing tax loopholes for billionaires

72% agree with her position on raising the minimum raise.

Since Napolitano has a long and well-established habit of being consistently and entirely wrong about such things, maybe you can help me out, since he doesn't do so in the article you cite. What are the statutes of those "multiple crimes, and at least two felonies" that you have allowed yourself to be believe Hillary committed?

I'll look forward to that so I can check it out, since I'm not a dupe enough to simply fall for whatever the former Judge and current Fox "News" employee says.

As to my "political bias", you'd have to let me know what that is, and how it affects my thoughts on this matter, since I must be missing something here. Thanks in advance!

Oh, I suspect our friend Jeff didn't even bother to listen to the show that he is pretending to comment on here.

It's astonishing that the L$M forgets that Willard Romney took ALL of his e-mails as governor and claimed since they were on HIS computers they were his property. Add to that his refusal to release his complete tax returns and I have to Laugh out Loud at the pundits outraged over this non scandal since ALL of the State Department recipients emails ARE archived.

There really is nothing there other than the medias desperation to bring Hillary down a notch and make the 2016 contest competitive.

Also, is it true that Colin Powell released NONE of his emails? Where is the uproar about that? Such principled motherfuckers. NOT.

That's one of the weirdest most fucked up things about so many of these people who currently claim to be conservatives. The never-ending litany of blatant double standards. Of which they seem to be consistently and completely unaware. Truly impressive.

And so much of what they have to say is just SO GODDAMN STUPID!!! They don't know if man-induced climate change is real? Okay, that'll be helpful in dealing with one of the most urgent issues of our time. And they seem to think going to war with Iran is a good idea? ISIS, as fucked up as they are, does not pose nearly the threat that these homegrown lunatics do. Jennifer Rubin lecturing Chris Hayes on how Obama should be more like Reagan in dealing with Iran??!!!!

Are you fucking kidding me? No, they're not fucking kidding me. They're that goddamn stupid.

Well, David @7, not really all that "weird."

Just another day of IOKYAR!

David Lasagna @ 7:

This tweet from Boehlert speaks to your point about Powell pretty concisely:

Powell: all my old private emails from SoS are gone media: okay, thanks. HIlary: i handed over my private emails media: scandal!!

Can someone at Fox News tell me where Governor Willard Romney's emails are/went?

Or better yet what the other 100 pages of his annual tax return showed where/how he made his money

How about Cheney's public records on the buildup to the Iraq war or for that matter any of Cheney's e-mails.
