More E-Mails.....

[bornaneer]

There is some damming stuff coming out in the e-mail leaks. New one today shows Hillary had veto power over what comments she made could be used by the NYT........its really sickening. Please don't give me the "off the record" ********.

Hillary Clinton spent time in summer 2015 with New York Times reporter Mark Leibovich and made a crack about 2008 Republican presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
Leibovich emailed campaign communication director Jennifer Palmieri on July 7, 2015, to try to lobby for a batch of quotes.

“These exchanges were pretty interesting…..would love the option to use,” he wrote.But Palmieri told Lebovich that Clinton did not want the Palin quote to appear, and it did not.The email exchange also indicates that Palmieri misunderstood the terms of the agreement. She wrote that she thought the campaign would be able to pick the quotes that would be used. Leibovich responded, "i wanted the option to use all — and you could veto what you didn’t want.

Staff at The Boston Globe worked with Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign to maximize her “presence” during her primary race against Sen. Bernie Sanders, new emails show. The exchange is one of thousands from the inbox of Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta leaked by the online hacktivist group WikiLeaks over the past week
Marjorie Pritchard, the Globe’s op-ed editor, contacted Podesta wondering if the Clinton campaign was still set to submit an op-ed. But then, Pritchard went above and beyond and offered tips about how the campaign could extract maximum benefit from the piece by coordinating its publication to match the Globe’s regular reporting. "It would be good to get it in on Tuesday, when she is in New Hampshire,” Pritchard says. “That would give her a big presence on Tuesday with the piece and on Wednesday with the news story. Please let me know.”

I'm shocked. If this is true, it's over for Hillary. Seriously, get back to us when you've got something.

Only pointing out some truths. As I have said many times earlier in case you can't read.......she will win. You should be ecstatic.......you, RPJ and others wanted her and you are going to get her.

She's just the best of two bad choices imo but I strongly believe that she won't ruin the country (or the world) for the next president. I can't say that about Trump.

Don't flatter yourself thinking that others read (and remember) your posts.

As I also have said earlier to several others....." life for you and I will go on as usual". I don't think that Trump or Hillary will be allowed to ruin the country. To many checks and balances in place for that to happen.

I disagree. I've watched GeeDub almost single handedly start a war in Iraq with questionable (at best) intelligence and that's just one example. With executive orders and other means available to a President, do not underestimate what a misguided President can do. Fortunately I don't think that he'll get a chance to take his buffoonery to the highest office.

Just released from John Podesta's emails: "My plan doesn't include justice, equality or fairness." "It is to create the future around a compliant citizenry so that voters remain unaware of what their government is actually doing to them."

Arab Spring is Hillary's and Obama's doing. Syria is the consequences of that, and it's just about got us back to a cold war stance with Russia. You underestimate her buffoonery.

You mean the one that Hillary voted for?

See how influential a misguided President can be? Thanks for making my point.

You over estimate the power of a SOS.

The quotes are attributed to who?

Donna Brazile, the current head of the Democratic National Committee, appears to have tipped the Clinton campaign off to a question about the death penalty that was going to be asked during a CNN town hall in March, newly released emails show.

"From time to time I get the questions in advance," Brazile wrote in an email to Clinton campaign communications director Jennifer Palmieri on March 12.
Brazile, who was a CNN contributor at the time of the email, went on to ask Palmieri about Clinton's stance on the death penalty.

"Here's one that worries me about HRC," wrote Brazile in the email, which was released on Tuesday by Wikileaks. The emails come from the Gmail account of Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta.

"Yes, it is one she gets asked about," Palmieri responded. "Not everyone likes her answer but can share it. Betsaida - can you send her answer on death penalty?"

Clinton was indeed asked about her stance on the death penalty during a CNN-hosted town hall the next day in Columbus, Ohio.

Your'e welcome.....I agree.....and a thanks to you as well.

The chairman of Univision pressured Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign to attack Donald Trump more fiercely on immigration, according to a new report.
Haim Saban reached out to Clinton’s camp last year after Trump said some illegal immigrants from Mexico are “drug dealers” and “rapists” during his campaign launch, The Washington Post said Monday.
“Haim thinks we are under reacting to Trump/Hispanics,” Clinton campaign manager John Podesta allegedly wrote to top campaign aides after speaking with Saban, according to hacked emails recently posted by WikiLeaks. "[He] thinks we can get something by standing up for Latinos or attacking R’s for not condemning."
Huma Abedin, the Clinton campaign’s vice chairwoman, said in a separate message Saban had also made similar overtures to her.
“If Haim is raising it, it means he’s hearing it from his Univision colleagues,” she said of Saban, who has given millions to the pro-Clinton super PAC Priorities USA.
“Haim is right – we should be jamming this all the time,” Clinton communications director Jennifer Palmieri said in another message, looping in her deputies. "Can we think about what else we can do? Issue a broader challenge?”

The Washington Post said Saban and his wife have donated $10 million to a pro-Clinton super PAC this year.

Saban on Monday said his support for Clinton does not conflict with his role leading the most watched Spanish-language television network.

“I’ve been a supporter of Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party long before my affiliation with Univision, and one thing has nothing to do with the other,” added Saban, who grew up in Israel.

WikiLeaks blew any credibility they had when they tried to accuse Bernie of being bought off for the DNC primary. Seriously, someone like Bernie being bought off? [pfftt]

And then turn around and state the reason they were delaying the release of other information was their concern for being drone striked. Does any sane person think the US would drone strike an embassy in London?

Bornaneer is right about some of this stuff in the wikileaks dump being damning. In a more conventional election cycle, this week would be marking 6 weeks in a row with Hillary on the defensive and probably losing badly in the polls (to someone like Rubio, Kasich, Jeb, Romney, or McCain).

But besides his myriad other issues, this is part of the problem for the Republicans in nominating someone who so totally consumes all available air in the news cycle. It's not that Hillary's problems are trivial---it's that they SEEM trivial in comparison to the abject and unrelenting buffoonery of the other side. Trump supporters can wail and whine about 'bias,' but Trump is digging his own hole and doing it in spite of a party that has tried to embrace him. Anderson Cooper isn't holding a gun to Trump's head to force him to tweet nonsense at 3:00 am that doubles down on his worst moments. He is without question the most oblivious and self-destructive Presidential candidate in U.S. history.

Ultimately, the GOP is getting a harsh lesson in an old personal responsibility trope that they used to benefit from: You are responsible for your actions and you must sleep in the bed you make. The GOP fomented the rise of Trump and now they are watching him destroy their party. No 'media creation' or spin could come within 1000 miles of producing the result that Trump has delivered--ripping the party of Ronald Reagan in half. The party did it to itself by embracing the worst dullards among the fringes of their base (and yes the dems have their own equivalents on the left too) and allowed what used to be a marginal set of voices to become the dominant ones. I have no predictions of what will ultimately happen. Maybe the wounds can eventually be healed, via an unprecedented coordination of mass conservative amnesia. I think smarter money might be on a spin-off of the nativisit/populist/alt-right/Trumpist folks into a new "Brietbart" party, leaving behind the National Review, defense hawk, and Chamber of Commerce set to rebuild the GOP (how is anyone's guess).

Good analysis.....the stupidity of the GOP that we have seen for the last 25 plus years is responsible for the nomination of a party outsider like Trump and the soon to be coronation of the likes of Hillary Clinton. With that being said I'll still take Trump.

I'm saying some of them are probably legit, specifically the ones about the DNC showing bias for Hillary in the primary.

I'm saying a lot of them are pure ********.
