Guv,you “DON"T” use email remember ?

"Everyone Would Freak Out "

“No, John Hoffman, a Christie appointee and the state’s acting attorney general, said in the opinion, private jet flights and luxury box seats paid for by Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and luxury hotel stays worth $30,000 paid for by Jordan’s King Abdullah do not have to be disclosed.”

Oh please!
The Clinton’s are under way more scrutiny than anyone. Has been for a long time. If Hillary so much as sneezes, the media is on it like dip on a chip.
Spare me this crazy notion that there is bias in this story. The “liberal” media has been non-stop on this email crap as well as their charity. They are looking to find something - anything - until the Obama’s take their next trip and the right can pour over the expenses with a fine tooth comb to wail about the cost. The reason noone outside the FOXspere and various other places that hate her anyway is BECAUSE WE ARE TIRED. It’s not even full campaign season and people that work aren’t even really thinking about this stuff. It’s noise.

Also I’m getting sick of politicians whining about how “no one is talking about something” yet in the same breath brag about how many viewers FOXNews gets. If FOX is obsessing over it, that means they are talking which means they have a lot of people listening. But I guess that doesn’t fit the “liberal media” and we are victims narrative.

Chris Christie is just a big fat liar. Pun intended…

Actually the MSM did, indeed, “freak out” over Hill’s emails; the NYT must have written about 3 dozen articles on them all by itself. Then, there was that fiasco of a press briefing over at the UN.

Yeah, pretty much a freak out over Hill’s emails by my definition.

poor, poor chris christie. e-mails? hillary? if the republican strategy is just to go after hillary instead of having a discussion on fixing problems, they will have no more luck than they had with obama. americans are sick of attack politics. let’s get back to civilly talking issues AND please stop loading up bills with a bunch of false flag unrelated issues that make the bill impossible to pass. have the guts to introduce an issue, debate the merits, and take a stand with an up or down vote.

Oh how I wish the media including TPM would dog Christie about his defrauding the PA of NY & NJ bondholders of $1.8 billion dollars!

In that case we do have emails from PA lawyers advising Christie his actions in using PA funds for the Pulaski Skyway NJ owned road would be ILLEGAL since Holland tunnel was built before the PA and therefore its access roads are not eligible for PA funding.

Could you imagine the demand to impeach Obama and rightfully so if he had committed such fraud by simply ignoring the maps and declaring by executive order that the Pulaski Skyway is instead an access road to the Lincoln tunnel which is eligible for funding?

The spineless Democrats political incompetence on yet another issue makes me sick to my stomach and selecting the Iraq war criminal Hillary makes me wanna puke, but only because the next president will be picking new Supreme Court justices will I swallow the vomit in my mouth and vote for Hillary.

But I hope everyday that Sanders or O’Malley or Web or anybody else can convince the Democrats that nominating Hillary with all her baggage will turn a for sure Democratic win into a crap shoot.

People don’t care about Hillary’s emails. People delete email every day and it’s no big deal.

Gov. Sammiches is going nowhere in the polls and his desperation is showing’

In essence, I believe you pretty much laid out Hillary’s GE strategy. She has a plethora of actual issues to push and campaign on, paid maternity leave, immigration reform, raising the minimum wage…the list goes on, all of which are polling very well with the overall American electorate.

The policies the GOP are discussing? Going to war in the Middle East again and attacking Hillary for made up scandals over the past 20 years. Neither of which is very popular with the American voters.

And, even more interesting, the issues she is going to stake out, will force the GOP to reflexively stand against, thus putting them at odds with voters AND exposing them as the party of “NO” yet again.

I care about Hillary’s emails.

I am an IT professional and would immediately FIRE and employee who sent out any email in their official capacity from any account other than their company issued one.

Properly securing and configuring an email server requires a full time person to look at the access logs for suspicious activity, are we to believe that Hillary had such a full time person in her employ looking at those access logs every day?

Jesus Christ! He did delete communications from the day Bridgegate was happening! And his staff deleted plenty of correspondence from that time, including Regina Egea’s famous deleted text messages, which the administration themselves had no record of, which means they deleted them too (AT&T documents show a record of an exchange between the two parties).

Everyone Would Freak Out If I Deleted BridgeGate Emails

But then you’re under criminal investigation-- so there’s that.

Chris Christie as George Costanza: “It’s not a lie…if you believe it.”

Though I don’t think we’re talking Yahoo Mail here.

Though dependent of course on the industry or institution-- firing-- is a bit harsh-- no?
Unless spelled out in an issued memorandum or employee indoctrination.
And wouldn’t that be a call made by HR (and Legal)?

HRC didn’t setup her own proprietary mailserver without parsing all of the possible pitfalls.
She’s far too savvy not to have considered a worst-case scenario-- and be advised on how to handle it publicly.

A non-starter for this IT professional.
