You posted:


Colin Powell and Condi Rice also used/had recourse to private email addresses during their tenures as Secretary of State, as did Jeb Bush while he was governor of Florida.


That entire sentence is a combination of lies and false equivalencies. As I posted:

Hillary used ONLY a private email server and it had information on it that could impact national security.


Powell used a Secure Government Email Server for business as well as a private one. Rice did not use personal email for government business.

JEB's server would have crap like the schedule for fixing an off ramp on I-75. Nothing like what Hillary was doing.




Yes, Powell and Rice had access to private email accounts. Rice did not use it for government business and Powell had a secure government email for emails with sensitive information. That Is NOT What Hillary Did!!! Everyone has access to private email accounts now. Even if you have a business account, you will also have a private one. Other than Hillary of course.

Hillary (for her own convenience) used only her private email account. Equating what she did and what Rice and Powell did is simply telling lies. That is one way in which you lied. The other is to equate JEB's Florida state business with State Department Business. There is no national security threat inherent in the day to day operations of being the Governor of Florida.



You are just repeating lies that have already been proven to be false. I am not repeating talking points, GOPer or otherwise. I am telling the truth. If you honestly can't tell the difference then you have serious issues.

People do not come here to be lied to and insulted. I am not a GOPer by any wild stretch and take offense at being told that I am just repeating their talking points. How about you abandon the falsified defenses that even the Clinton campaign has abandoned? You are way out of line on this one.

Let. It. Go.
