People who “voluntarily relinquish" documents they shouldn’t have in the first place should always remain suspect

Lady Justice will never catch up to a presidential-bound Madam Clinton

Only the hopelessly gullible would believe that Hillary Clinton has volunteered to willingly surrender her private email server to “authorities”. Mainstream media reporting the latest on the Hillary email controversy would have been far more honest and accurate had they reported that Clinton handed over her private email server only after all it contained had been scrubbed, scoured, whitewashed and edited. Hillary would NEVER have turned over to authorities anything that would implicate her signature cunning and dishonesty.
“Hillary Clinton agreed to turn over her private email server to authorities on Tuesday, the same day an intelligence community inspector general told congressional committees that at least five emails from the server did contain classified information. (CNN, Aug. 12, 2015)
“The decision to hand over the server, as well as a thumb drive of all her work-related emails to the Justice Department, represents an effort to blunt an expanding probe into the use of a private email account. “Clinton, now the Democratic presidential front-runner, "directed her team to give her email server that was used during her tenure as (Secretary of State) to the Department of Justice, as well as a thumb drive containing copies of her emails already provided to the State Department," her spokesman, Nick Merrill, told CNN early Tuesday evening. "She pledged to cooperate with the government's security inquiry, and if there are more questions, we will continue to address them."
Ask yourself: Would the nakedly ambitious Hillary Clinton ever have turned over her controversial emails had she not been running as the presumed Democrat candidate for the 2016 presidency? Where were the emails containing “classified information” headed before her primary campaign? To the same hole where her role in the Benghazi scandal is buried is where.

“Classified documents” have a way of disappearing when the Clintons are involved

In a system now wholly controlled by the Obama Democrat-enabled regime, how many believe that even with the FBI, and Department of Justice in on the act, that justice will ever catch up to multi-millionaire Madam Clinton? How does Madam Clinton get away with what she does; for example, crying poor when she’s one of America’s wealthiest public figures, courtesy of the still-unaudited Clinton Foundation, which in reality is a bottomless pit family trust? Because she’s Mrs. Slick Willy Clinton. Husband Bill, who soars on popularity polls, can do wrong as far as his loyal fans are concerned. Women still line up for hours just to get a glimpse of what they perversely see as “sexy Bill”. Anything connected to the former president, including his wife, is okay with them and they have long ago forgotten that Hillary only sticks to Bill in order to regain power of the White House--this time with no blankety-blank husband standing in her way. Why are people so easily deceived when the mainstream media does cartwheels all because Hillary Clinton has finally turned her emails over to authorities? Shouldn’t it have been the authorities confiscated the emails before she used turning them over as yet another campaign publicity stunt? “But, but....the FBI and other authorities have come down on Hillary’s head like the proverbial hammer”, the easily fooled gullible will counter. Really, what took them so infernally long? Overly long are the octopus arms of the Clintons on what the peanut gallery call “the authorities”. Behind the Clintons, the Bush’s, the Obamas are the paid-to-protect them bureaucrats so eagerly waiting to do their will. The bureaucrats behind the Clintons let them get away with everything, though it would be impossible to prove--even murder. “Classified documents” have a way of disappearing when the Clintons are involved. How soon the public forgot the document sock-stuffing Clintonista, Sandy Berger. (Wikipedia)
“On July 19, 2004, it was revealed that the U.S. Department of Justice was investigating Berger for unauthorized removal of classified documents in October 2003 from a National Archives reading room prior to testifying before the 9/11 Commission. The documents were five classified copies of a single report commissioned from Richard Clarke covering internal assessments of the Clinton Administration's handling of the unsuccessful 2000 millennium attack plots. An associate of Berger said Berger took one copy in September 2003 and four copies in October 2003. Berger subsequently lied to investigators when questioned about the removal of the documents. In April 2005, Berger pled guilty to a misdemeanor charge of unauthorized removal and retention of classified material from the National Archives in Washington. According to the lead prosecutor in the case, Berger only took copies of classified information and no original material was destroyed. Berger was fined $50,000, sentenced to serve two years of probation and 100 hours of community service, and stripped of his security clearance for 3 years. The Justice Department initially said Berger stole only copies of classified documents and not originals. But the House Government Reform Committee later revealed that an unsupervised Berger had been given access to classified files of original, uncopied, uninventoried documents on terrorism. During the House Government Reform Committee hearings, Nancy Kegan Smith acknowledged that she had granted Berger access to original materials in her office. On December 20, 2006, Inspector General Paul Brachfeld reported that Berger took a break to go outside without an escort. "In total, during this visit, he removed four documents ... Mr. Berger said he placed the documents under a trailer in an accessible construction area outside Archives 1 (the main Archives building)." Berger acknowledged that he later retrieved the documents from the construction area and returned with them to his office On May 17, 2007, Berger relinquished his license to practice law as a result of the Justice Department investigation. Saying, "I have decided to voluntarily relinquish my license." He added that, "While I derived great satisfaction from years of practicing law, I have not done so for 15 years and do not envision returning to the profession. I am very sorry for what I did, and I deeply apologize." By giving up his license, Berger avoided cross-examination by the Bar Counsel regarding details of his thefts
People who “voluntarily relinquish” documents they shouldn’t have in the first place should always remain suspect. Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton’s traveling circus will get over this bump in the road with only minor bruises leaving Lady Justice far behind in the rearview mirror.
