Yep. We’re definitely in the best of hands:

More from the Washington Examiner:

 

State Department spokesman John Kirby said Tuesday then-Sen. John Kerry used a “non-official” email address to send Hillary Clinton information in 2011 that has since been classified.

The emails between Kerry and Clinton were included among a small batch of records made public by the State Department Friday. It had been upgraded to “secret,” the level of classification in government above “confidential,” but below “top secret.”

“I can tell you the [email] that we talked about being upgraded to secret was sent from a non-official account, and the account from which it was sent is no longer active,” Kirby said of the email Tuesday. “I’ve not spoken to the secretary about his reaction to that being out there.”

That’s great. Just great.

          I’m sorry, I’m not familiar with the naval term, “at anchorage”. If it means, “handcuffed to the ship’s anchor just before they drop anchor”, then I’m all for it.

          • Arttie the Deplorable

            I’m sorry I should have said at anchor in the anchorage. I was actually the thinking that the yacht would be serviced by the fine upstanding citizens of the city of Benghazi for all the care. The peace and comfort of wondering friend or foe.

    • JosephBloughs ✓Viagrafied

      That’s the modus operandi for the establishment of both parties. There’s no accountability because the so-called system of checks and balances is completely and thoroughly broken. Congress? Don’t make me laugh! Every wretched and corrupt branch of government gives the other a wink and a nod. They’ve discovered it’s so much easier and convenient for everyone to just get what they want. If and when that ever changes, then perhaps this won’t resemble a banana republic anymore.

      • Aparition42

        Spot on. We are effectively living under a one-party system. If the courts, the congress, and the executive are all on the same team, then checks and balances are meaningless.

        Some people talk about conspiracy, but consensus is so much worse. They don’t have to scheme and plot, because they’re all already in agreement.

        • thale_taxurfeet ♂ Vilified

          Government Club…

        • Fingolfin

          So what about when things go the way of Constitutionality?

          • Aparition42

            If I’m understanding you correctly, you’re talking about the rule of law. In a functioning constitutional government the political class would be subject to the same laws as everyone else regardless of what their personal desires may be.

            What I’m complaining about is basically the opposite. The Constitution’s strict separation of powers has been bypassed because much of congress, the president and his administration, and the courts are in agreement when it comes to certain points regarding their own culpability to the law.

            When the Supreme Court failed to block subsidies to individuals who purchase insurance through the federal exchange, the rule of law officially ended. They did not judge the law by the literal words on paper, but by their feelings about what the legislature probably meant when they wrote it. Regardless of whether you actually believe that the legislature intended for federal exchange purchases to be eligible for subsidies, the law as written said they weren’t. The supreme court did not determine whether the law had been broken based on the law the legislature actually voted on, but on what they wanted the law to have said.

            If the meaning of the actual text of a law is subject to interpretation based on the thoughts and feelings of the courts rather than the definition of the words used, we are not ruled by law, but by the whims of man.

          • Fingolfin

            What I meant was, how can you sustain a claim of autocracy if the autocracy actually gives up power (in rare instances)?

      • TheForgottenTimeZone

        Part of the problem is the isolated nature in which our leaders live. Few have held outside jobs (as in non-elected, non-appointed) in decades. It’s obvious that neither Hillary nor Lurch understand how e-mail works, or what the rules are in the real world. This is something that everyone else who has had real jobs and has had to sign statements acknowledging policy and procedures does understand. They also have aides that will do “the little stuff” for them, which further insulates them from real life. It’s why “experience in government” is a false asset.

    Let us not forget that Hillary previously argued that investigators could get emails to/from her from the other party’s email account on the State Dept. server. So, Hillary, what about emails sent from private email accounts (like Kerry’s) to your private email account?

    • http://truthbeforedishonor.wordpress.com John Hitchcock

      Let’s hope 2017 comes with a cascade of indictments. And multiple life sentences so parole doesn’t factor.

  • John Howard

    As Hillary put it, it’s about time somebody set down some rules to prevent this sort of thing from happening.

    • Michael the white suburbanite

      you would think there is “no controlling legal authority”

        Well, she’s so accustomed to being above the law, she probably forgets that they even exist.

    • TheForgottenTimeZone

      Last I heard, the Secret Service wouldn’t let him. They barely consented to using a BlackBerry (which uses its own messaging system). There’s a reason that neither GHW Bush, Bill Clinton, nor GW Bush used e-mail for more than one or two “test” messages. It’s not that they were “old school” or technologically incompetent; it’s that they knew the inherent security and privacy risks.

        I’m trying to figure out a detail in the story. It says that Kerry used private email to send Secret information to Hillary’s private email. This occurred in 2011. Hillary was SoS in 2011. Where did Kerry get Secret information? He wasn’t SoS then.

    All of this private e-mail address/private server crap has been for serving one singular purpose: To keep Republicans from getting access to official communications of Obama officials and other prominent elected Dems for as long as possible.

    Remember, to these people, the Republican Party is the biggest enemy of all……

      Peter Scheitzer’s book “Clinton Cash,” which was very judiciously authenticated, makes it hard to imagine that Obama could not possibly have been oblivious to the debris field that his “staff” had constructed. Obama’s camarilla and clerisy had to have hacked Hillary’s fisher-price server.
