(3,030 posts)"A report that says so little new against Clinton, amounts to a vindication."
No, it says that what was already known was indeed true and she was wrong to do it. So was Colin Powell.
Two wrongs make a right?

Intimidating witnesses.
That she's been lying about it being ok.
That the server wasn't actually for convenience, it was to avoid the law.
The list goes on.

We already know Powell is a criminal. Way to go comparing Clinton to him Forbes!

(32,324 posts)A person casually reads one section of it to find out that the State Department commonly had problems with enforcement of the email situation.
Which doesn't exonerate her at all - since she was after all, the Head of the State Department. It was her job to make sure the place ran in a tight fashion.

Colin Powell did it too + the worst is yet to come with the FBI investigation + who really cares about State Dept. policy and FOIA = VINDICATION!
Alrighty then.
