Deleter in Chief - Hillary Clinton - 2016 Race

Daily Mail: Reports on the statement by Hillary Clinton on her email scandal,  " I’ve deleted all my personal emails and the server will remain private: Hillary Clinton reveals HALF her inbox has not been handed over and says she used one account for convenience "

Lets Get Real:

The Q/A session with reporters was a disaster, if the Clinton Camp think that a Republican House will allow Hillary Clinton and her staff to decide what is private they are living in a very liberal bubble.  The House Select Committee should demand the Clinton server, this should be approved by the House and then sent to the Obama Justice Department, force them to slow walk the process, make every delay a cover up.   The Clintons can not be allowed to play this game, they are not the final judge on what is private and public when it comes to the role of a public servant, ALL papers private or public are on the public's dime.   If the Clinton camp are allowed to get away with this what will they be like in the Oval Office if they win.   Lets not play the 1990s games again, lets make it clear to the Clintons that they are not above the law, its a lesson they should have learnt a long time ago. 

Defending the Baltics - New Cold War 2

BBC News: Reports " Hundreds of US military vehicles have arrived in the Baltic states and are to stay in Europe, in a mission to reassure Nato allies unsettled by Russia's actions in Ukraine. "

Lets Get Real:

This is a smart move by the US and NATO, the Russian bear was starting to think it could do as it liked in the Eastern Europe and the Baltic States.  The comes with a risk, what if President Putin tries the same strategy in the Baltic as he used in the Crimea and East Ukraine, gets the minority Russian population worked up and then arms them, then sends in Russian troops to cause problems, that would call in to question the future of NATO, its either one for all or its nothing.   The Kremlin might view Obama as a walkover, the new Neville Chamberlain and thus try their luck, this move by NATO will have long term results, keep an eye on the Baltic and Russian moves to get the Baltics back in to the Russian sphere of influence. 

Was the Clinton email Legal - 2016 Race

Guardian: Reports " Clinton's former legal adviser deflects questions about private email account...Harold Koh, senior adviser while Hillary Clinton was secretary of state, invokes attorney-client privilege but legal expert says ‘it’s not as clearcut as he suggests’ "

Lets Get Real:

The last thing Hillary Clinton needs is for the lawyers to become part of the process, that would recall ALL the Clinton scandals of the 1990s, its never good when your lawyer starts to use attorney client privilege, peoples think its fishy, as if you have something to hide.  HRC has to closed down this chatter, or her campaign for the 2016 could be over before it starts.   The extreme liberal press have never liked the Clintons, to conservative, to willing to do a deal, to close to big business.   Thus the Clinton team need clear and simple answers to the reporters questions, they also need fresh talking points for their defenders.   Lets see how the press conferences goes and the reaction over the hours and days ahead. 

The Clinton Saga - Emails - 2016 Race

CNN - Politics: Reports on email scandal and past Clintons scandals, " Secrecy. Shielding documents. Accusations of arrogance and hypocrisy. Debates about the letter and the spirit of the rules. A public defense -- but also jitters and disbelief -- from fellow Democrats. Legitimate criticism along with some eye-rolling conspiracy theories from Republicans. "

Lets Get Real:

WELCOME BACK to the 1990s. the great economic years before the dot com bubble broke, before 9/11, and the Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.   The Bill Clinton Presidency was good for most Americans, the morality of the Oval Office came in to question, and the Republicans could use the Bill Clinton scandal in 2000 to win over Al Gore, when Gore with a good economy should have won hands down.   The Republicans should keep back, lets see how the story develops, lets allow Hillary to create her own scandals, and call her before Congress a week before the Iowa vote in January 2016.   The winner will be the one standing, not the side that gets the best of the 24/7 news cycle. 

Hillary Clinton and the Press - 2016 Race

Politico: Reports that former Secretary of State and prospective Democrat Nominee for President will hold a press conference today. 

Lets Get Real:

Hillary Clinton has taken her time to talk to the press, the Clinton Campaign has waited, days, the idea that the story would go away has not worked, in fact it has become more complicated with the news that President Obama and Secretary Clinton shared emails using her private server,  Thus its present and past use could be a risk to US national security, one can assume that POTUS and his Secretary State used to email to discuss foreign policy, in the case of Libya the terrorist act that killed the US Ambassador to Libya.   The Clinton Camp will try to get away without any third party checking the Clinton server, if there are ANY deletions there will be further fuel added to the Clinton scandal, lets see if the press really go after HRC, one has doubts.  The Clinton Camp is already saying its a vast right wing conspiracy to get the Clintons, wonder from which scandal that was used, yes it was the intern scandal.   Fun times if your a political geek, this is just the gravy before the meal of the primary elections. 

The Other shoe just dropped, POTUS and Hillary Clinton - 2016 Race

Guardian: Reports " Obama and Hillary Clinton exchanged emails through her private account...White House says Obama unaware of the details of her personal email address and private server, nor how her team will comply with the Federal Records Act "

Lets Get Real:

As stated this could be the other shoe that drops with the Clinton email scandal, did POTUS and his Secretary of State exchanged secret information while on email, how come POTUS did not know that Clinton was using a private email and server at her home.  The House Select Committee will demand the emails, they will want to see ALL the emails that concern Libya.   This is the Obama Team is throwing the Clintons under the bus, they must be furious that they have become the defenders for the Clintons, it is always other people who have to clear up after the Clintons.   The 1990s are back, the good old days. 

Never Trust the Greeks - Greek Crisis

Telegraph: Reports " Eurozone tightens noose on Greece as Syriza told to face the 'naked truth' over bail-out..Head of Europe's finance ministers tells Greece to stop wasting time over enacting reforms as the country scrambles to meet €350m in IMF loan repayments this week "

Lets Get Real:

As always with the EU the devil is in the detail, the so called compromise of a few weeks ago shows what the deal meant to the different sides, the EU thought that the left wing Government in Greece would play ball and make cuts, while Athens though that the Germany tax payer would pay for the political promises of the left wing Greek Government.  When it comes to real money you can not play about, the Greeks are skint and are not trusted by the EU, this is not new, the Romans had a very low opinion of the Greeks, you give them a hand and your rings are gone.   The Greeks have to understand that they are on charity, its Germany that is the power house of the EU, time for the Greeks to grow up and show some pride, get out of the Euro, get the economy working and show that they can be like the Classic Greeks, for the Country that gave us Democracy the present Greece should not been shown any respect or charity, Lady Thatcher would have no time for the Greeks of the present.
