Say Hello to the 'Hillary Defense' for Classified Document Law Violators

[JimBowie1958]

So how much damage has been done to our national security by Comeys head-up-his-arse decision to not prosecute Hillary because she is too stupid to be held accountable?

Clinton email decision seen as lifeline for those facing similar charges

The FBI recommendation not to prosecute Hillary Clinton and her staff on charges of mishandling classified information will give those accused of flouting national security rules a new line of defense even as it highlights a dual standard in how senior government officials are treated, several experts said Wednesday....

Lawyers who specialize in representing government and military officials who’ve had security clearances revoked said Comey’s recommendation offered them a new tactic in seeking to rehabilitate their clients, especially if Clinton is elected president in November.

“I intend to use the Hillary defense,” said Sean M. Bigley, a lawyer whose firm handles dozens of cases a year involving national security clearances. “I really question how any agency can say someone is a security risk if the president of the United States did something similar.”

He added, “We’ve had people lose 20-year careers for doing less than what she did.”

Mark F. Riley, a former military intelligence officer who became a lawyer defending those accused of national security violations, said he, too, would invoke the Clinton recommendation.

So, half a country is ready to elect a president, who "is extremely careless", is "screwing up" constantly and doesn't remember sh*t. And the country is USA, not Somalia or some African country....

That kind of person belongs to a mental clinic, not to the White House.

What happened to good old America?

Lawyers to Use Hillary Defense in Security Cases

Did we expect less? And it already appears lawyers for Petreaus and others will be appealing convictions based on the same thing.

And more are waking up every day, especially with the increased activity of Marxist radicals like the snipers in Dallas.

It is never truly too late to fix a problem.

The catch is that the level of effort, time and costs go way up exponentially the longer we do nothing.

The longer the Democrat control of the White House continues the more likely is a civil war and the more blood and treasure that will be required to repair everything.
