Yes, Clinton used a private email account to communicate while she was secretary of state. But so did secretaries of state before her. According to the State Department spokesman Marie Harf, John Kerry is the first secretary of state ever to rely primarily on official State Department email.

Condoleeza Rice didn't use unofficial email accounts, John Kerry is not the first.

Why isn't he excommunicated from Clinton world then? Or at least discouraged? One would think Bill could tamp it down if he really didn't approve.

Have "Karl Rove or Dick Cheney tactics" ever been uttered from HRC's lips? Seems a bit hypocritical, don't you think?

You'd probably have to "suspend disbelief" now wouldn't you.

I really can't understand what you are trying to say. But I think the answer is that Brock is a journalistic opportunist, as his track record demonstrates. You can't "tamp" that down if someone wants to print crazy stuff.

Well sitting presidents have sat down with publishers of such publications like the NYT and asked them to not move forward or hold off on publishing stories that they believed would harm national security. Such as when the NYT broke a foreign financing program (my details are fuzzy, sorry), but it was during the Bush administration.

You're suggesting Bill wouldn't sit down with someone he believed was doing more harm than good to his and his family's reputation and ambitions?
