Hillary, fubar is when you turn over 50k emails and server, but GOP still talks about emails and not issues. Enough!

(297,050 posts)8. Oh sorry.. I hadn't realized it was in 2010! Anyway I was just kidding.. figured she'd been too

SNAFU is "Situation normal, all fucked up."
FUBAR is "Fucked up beyond all recognition."
I believe these to be coinages from the enlisted men of the US Army. Creative guys, I've always thought.

State Department
She was told that "Fubar is unprintable on civil email."
FUBAR, for the record, is an acronym for "fucked up beyond all recognition."
