Hillary Clinton: Classified Emails Only Wrong Because I Got Caught
by Daniel Greenfield: Does that count as honestly dishonest or dishonestly honest?
When the poll numbers on trust turned against her, Hillary Clinton finally broke down and apologized for the email scandal, claiming that it was a mistake. Now she clarified why it was a mistake. It was a mistake because she got caught.
“So it was a mistake because of the reaction?” the editor asked.
“Yes, absolutely,” Clinton responded.
“Not because it would have made sense to use a work email for work purposes?” he continued.
“It makes sense – look, look – I know that this remains a subject of some interest, obviously… The facts have not changed,” she responded. Fact Check: The facts have changed. Hillary Clinton claimed that there were no classified emails. We now know that not only was not true, but that there were highly classified materials on her email server including some that could potentially have compromised human intelligence sources.
But the bottom line is the typically Clintonesque lack of remorse. Hillary Clinton doesn't think she did anything wrong. She said it was a mistake because the whole thing is inconvenient. Or as she put it, " “It was a mistake, because who wants to put people through all of this? I don’t want to go through it." And that amounts to an admission that if she could do it again and get away with it, she would.
Quite an admission for someone running for the highest office in the land.
