I don’t know that this is the post that says it’s a dozen, but it gives an outline of the scope of the Post mistake (the FBI says less than 50). I’ll try to find that one: mediamatters.org/blog/2016/03/29/washington-post-corrects-faulty-report-that-nea/209615

Do you think only having ~50 agents investigating full-time signifies a lack of substance?

I think if there are more than a couple assigned (full-time), it’s probably a significant investigation.

Oh, the Democrats aren’t the “party of death” any more than the Republicans. It was the GOP after all who upheld Roe v Wade and PP v Casey, not the Democrats.

That’s like saying the Dems are the “party of slavery” because they once were.

Nobody saw Roe coming because it was invented out of the thin air and it was forty years ago. But let’s look at something more contemporary.

In Carhart vs. Gonzales, the Supreme Court took up the question whether states could ban partial birth abortion. Every Republican appointee on the court voted in favor of the bans. Every Democrat appointee voted against banning partial birth abortion.

Abortion is part of the Dem party platform. Protection of life from conception is in the Repub party platform. Hillary Clinton praises Planned Parenthood, the seller of baby body parts, without exception even for that, and is endorsed by that odious organization. No Repub candidate is endorsed by Planned Parenthood. National Abortion Rights League approves all but a handful of Dem congresspersons, and only approves a handful of Repubs. National Right to Life League endorses almost all Repub congresspersons and almost no Dems.

The head of the Dem party, Barack Obama, wants abortion untouched and approves it because he doesn’t ever want one of his daughters “burdened by a baby”.

It’s all pretty plain, though the Dems don’t like to claim the title. They like what it is, but they don’t like the name.

First of all, nobody but the FBI knows how many are working on it or have. Secondly, even fifty is a huge devotion of resources. 147 or whatever the most-cited number is, is enormous.

Your judgments. Highly debateable.

But one does remember Hillary Clinton’s laughing when she learned Quaddhaffi was sodomized and tortured to death. And she mocked him besides. A strange sense of humor, hers.

Definitely a strike against her, but I think there is a huge issue with her vote to support the Iraq War when she was in the Senate.

If she were so knowledgeable and able in foreign affairs as she claims to be, she would have seen that the Iraq War would lead to disaster in the area. Her vote to support the Iraq war shows her misjudgment and lack of ability to deal with foreign policy issues.

As well as starting the war against Libya without so much as telling congress, let alone asking them.

And now, I guess we are backing competing rebel groups in Syria and acting as the Iranian air force there as well. All of it is just crazy.

Hillary hasn’t mopped a floor in her life! 😃

Admittedly, she probably hasn’t in decades, but I would guess she did during the very early years of her marriage to Bill. They didn’t have a lot of money then.

She super intelligent, but she doesn’t have a crystal ball. A lot of people voted for the Iraq War, and a lot of Americans supported it.

Would rather they were hunting down ISIS.

I know, right?

The money that has been spent over the years trying to take that woman down at all costs boggles the mind. It also further endears her to many people who have watched her serve her country with wisdom and strength.

The FBI only has the power to make arrests within our borders and I do not think Obama or Hillary belive ISIS is a huge threat within the jurisdiction of the FBI. They can assist in investigations overseas if a host country invites them …probably not any country where ISIS is headquartered

Endears her?..speak for yourself.It doesn’t sound like the majority in her party find her endearing.Tolerate is probably a more accurate term:rolleyes:

She has endeared herself to me, and I would assume to the thousands of people who come to her rallies and chant her name and cheer when she speaks.

I respect your right now to like her, I don’t like Trump or Cruz. But I have to say that they have their supporters who won’t vote for anyone else. So does Hillary. Her supporters are just as loyal.
