Nothing but the willingness to suppose that being close enough to people with power to be ever at risk of being thrown under a bus, is as good as having power oneself.
If you were following the revelations about Hillary Clinton’s private State Department IT operation last week, you probably heard that, as the initial New York Times story put it, “55,000 pages of emails were given to the department” in December after being selected by a private aide to the former secretary. You might have wondered: What does that mean, 55,000 “pages”? Or maybe you just read it, as the crack fact-check team over at PolitiFact did just last night, as 55,000 emails.
It turns out the reference is to literal physical pages. From Friday’s Times: “Finally, in December, dozens of boxes filled with 50,000 pages of printed emails from Mrs. Clinton’s personal account were delivered to the State Department.”
Why did Mrs. Clinton have her staff go through the trouble of printing out, boxing and shipping 50,000 or 55,000 pages instead of just sending a copy of the electronic record? One can only speculate, but there is an obvious advantage: Printed files are less informative and far harder to search than the electronic originals.

Likewise, printouts are not subject to electronic discovery in the event of investigation or lawsuit. The Times reports that department lawyers responding to a request from the House Select Committee on Benghazi took two months to find “roughly 900 pages pertaining to the Benghazi attacks.” And printouts do not include electronic “metadata,” which can provide crucial forensic evidence.
I’m kind of curious to find out what they are using to blackmail Davis with. I mean, c’mon, the man is intelligent, he knows what cretins the Clintons are, and what he looks like defending them all the time. There is no way he is doing this unless they have something on him.
This is the vast right wing conspiracy trying to make misongynistic hay out of old news becuse they fear stong indenpendent pathblazing feminist icons like Hillary and anyway her pornographic missives to/from Huma are a private matter protected by executive privilige so shut up already!
I want to say one thing to the American people. I want you to listen to me. I’m going to say this again. I did not have communication relations with that server, clintonemail.com. I never told anybody to lie, not a single time–never. These allegations are false. And I need to go back to work for the American people. Thank you.
What kind of psychopathology leads one to willingly become such a toady?

Playing every possible angle, every time.
Everything, all the time.
