Phoenix.Amandarius said: »You cannot accuse Republicans of anything as you sit there willingly with every Democrat in the country, again, looking the other way when a Clinton breaks the law.
I understand the desperation to defend her as it seems every Democrat in America has their eggs in one basket with Hillary and it is coming apart at the seams. In such a supposedly diverse party you would expect more than just one single viewpoint to arise in a Democratic Presidential primary and from it to come out of the mouth of something other than a rich white woman that stands for nothing.
Are you still denying that she lied to the entire world about a youtube video fueling the attack in Benghazi? Can you at least be honest about this fact that is so ridiculously obvious?
But 47 republican senators violating the Logan Act is ok because they aren't democrats. Am I right? Let us know what part of the Logan Act they violated, k?

If you are going to post the Logan Act, it would be better to post the actual law instead of commentary.
Quote: Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.
This section shall not abridge the right of a citizen to apply, himself or his agent, to any foreign government or the agents thereof for redress of any injury which he may have sustained from such government or any of its agents or subjects.
Did that letter negotiate anything? Did that letter do anything more than point out Congress's role in any negotiation made by Obama?

But they did not break the law.

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/13/world/middleeast/ayatollah-ali-khamenei-criticizes-republicans-letter-on-iran-nuclear-talks.html
NYT said: Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s supreme leader, said the letter warning that any nuclear deal could be scrapped by a new president was “a sign of a decline in political ethics and the destruction of the American establishment from within.” The statement was posted on his website.
...
“All countries, according to the international norms, remain faithful to their commitments even after their governments change, but the American senators are officially announcing that at the end of the term of their current government, their commitments will be considered null and void,” Mr. Khamenei wrote. He said the letter was a “sign of declining political ethics.” Dude's kinda got a point.

I want to know why no one said anything about Clinton using her personal email until right now. I mean... she's been in contact with both democrats and republicans via email during her time as secretary of state so they all knew about it. Why did no one on either side make a stink about it until right now?
Oh yeah... no one was worried about it until the presidential election started coming around the bend.
By fonewear 2015-03-12 13:56:13
Most of the 400 pages is lawyer talk. So even if I wanted to read it my mind would wonder to T and A.

Oh yeah... no one was worried about it until the presidential election started coming around the bend. Nobody made a fuss about it because it was expected that she turn over her personal emails regarding government business to the State Department for record keeping. Which she never did.
AP was the one who sued under Freedom of Information regulations.
And for some reason, this was posted in the wrong thread.

Yeah it should come as no surprise then that her qualifications to be a world leader are going to come under enormous scrutiny as 2016 approaches and the rumor that she was going announce her run formally that has been pushed back to summer.

I wanted to read Hillary's private e-mails but sadly she deleted them.
Unless you get a job at the NSA...

Pushed back until the next "fake" scandal to hit the public's mind.

There is no Clinton Email thread created, because those who would have made it (myself and Ravael) know the inevitable shitstorm it would have caused by the Obama Clinton apologists.

I don't think the Clinton email thing really needs it's own thread, at least not until something big about comes to light.
I just tried to tie into the Iran thing in order to reach a deal, lol.

Random Politics & Religion is for topics that aren't thread worthy on their own and do not have their own existing thread.
Rules and Guidelines
Forum Rules and P&R Section Guidelines still apply.
Satire is tolerated.
If your topic covers a story over 6 months old (Watergate, Benghazi, 2012 Election, etc.) post it here.
Discussions on racism, homophobia, transphobia, and the like are allowed, targeted insults based on these will not be tolerated.
Political debates get heated and are meant to be intense, if you take offense to being called or proven wrong, you don't belong here.
If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen; if you prove you can't handle the criticism you bring upon yourself in this thread, you may be removed from it. You are responsible for what you post.
Along those lines, heat is fine, but sustained, clearly personal hostility is not okay. The personal attack rules still apply. Attack positions, not posters. Failure to adhere to this will result in your removal from the thread.
This thread is NOT the Flame Core.
These rules are subject to change and modification where and when needed.
Random Politics & Religion may be mained or demained depending on the activity within at a Moderator's discretion.
With that out of the way, let the debates begin!
