David Brock fights back against the Fake "email scandal" of Clinton

[zebonaut]

The Wingers are doing their best to destroy Clinton with fake scandals; but it will backfire in their faces when Bernie Sanders is elected President in a Landslide. Hehehehe

1. I think they sent the wrong guy out to defend things

Comes across as a paid hack, vs. reasonable argument being made

Ended up making her position look worse and continues to focus voter's attention on this issue over and over again, and stirs up more of the story than was there but 9 minutes prior to his appearance.

4. I don't know how you could watch that and think that Brock came off worse than anybody else on

that show especially the "esteemed" Bob Woodward. Did you hear that clown say with a straight face that it was a good story in spite of the fact that the one independent source cited actually says the opposite of what the author is claiming? Somehow Brock is "nitpicking" and "distorting" by pointing out that there's no factual basis to the article and that the author was essentially blogging his opinion on the front page of the NYT? Give me a fucking break.

Seroiously, outside of Beltway insiders, who can bear to watch that shit?

2. I'm on David's side here.

I think this whole brouhaha was ginned up just like the Benghazi crap and all the other crap that these half-insane Repubs come up with to try to "nail" the Clintons or Obama or whoever they decide has done some deep and dark crime. Meanwhile, they want to eliminate social security and Obamacare and medicaid, and anything else that is helpful to Americans. The immorality or crime here is the Repub's.

Maybe Clinton was not as rigorous as she should have been in the protocol she was following (at least as we can see now with 20/20 hindsight) but there were plenty of people doing exactly the same thing at the time. I'm a Bernie supporter but it doesn't really matter to me whether Hillary is "nailed" for some sloppy protocol or not and I'm not sure anybody, even Bernie, would not have done exactly as Hillary did. My liking for Bernie has nothing to do w/ Hillary's following some standard of behavior that people decide she should have followed after the fact.

In fact this whole Congress and the Republicans in general have made government nothing more than a "tempest in a teapot" when people have real needs that need to be attended to and are not being attended to.
