Hillary Clinton Lies Blaming Colin Powell For Email Scandal Stating He Told Her To Get A Private Server

One of the traits of good leader is taking responsibility for one's actions. Another trait is following the law in making good, responsible, lawful choices. U.S. presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, has taken the cowardly approach during her ongoing email scandal, where she illegally maintained a private server and wantonly mishandled classified documents, while U.S. Secretary of State, under President Barack Obama.

Clinton is now blaming distinguished, former U.S. Secretary of State and four star Army general, Colin Powell, stating he told her to use a private email server. Clinton is a lawyer. She was brief on the procedures and protocols of the U.S. government, while a Senator in Congress and later as Secretary of State. Clinton knew she was not supposed to maintain a private server, as it is a violation of U.S. government rules and laws. Clinton has no excuse and should not try to pin the blame for her crimes on Powell.

 
Colin Powell: don't try to pin this mess on me

Powell blasted Clinton's deceitful claims, "The truth is, she was using [the private email server] for a year before I sent her a memo telling her what I did." That did not stop Clinton from criminally breaking the law again in telling the FBI that Powell was the one who told her to use a private server. Lying to the FBI is a serious federal crime, punishable by fines and imprisonment (and the Judiciary Report has consistently maintained Clinton lied to the FBI and Congress). 

The American people firmly believe the FBI have been bribed, leading them to rig the criminal investigation to let lawbreaking Clinton off the hook. Therefore, don't hold your breath that anything will come of Clinton's criminal conduct that led to American classified documents ending up in the hands of hackers working for the Communist Bloc.

"The truth is, she was using [the private email server] for a year before I sent her a memo telling her what I did," Powell added. Why does the former diplomat believe this to be the case? "Why do you think?" he said. "It doesn't bother me. But it's okay; I'm free."...

Colin Powell Concerned About Obama Spending

Colin Powell

Former U.S. Secretary, Colin Powell, is concerned about President Barack Obama's many spending initiatives and the strain it will create on the budget and deficit.

Powell airs doubts on Obama agenda

July 3, 2009 - Colin Powell, one of President Obama's most prominent Republican supporters, expressed concern Friday that the president's ambitious blitz of costly initiatives may be enlarging the size of government and the federal debt too much.

"I'm concerned at the number of programs that are being presented, the bills associated with these programs and the additional government that will be needed to execute them," Mr. Powell said in an excerpt of an interview with CNN's John King, released by the network Friday morning.

Mr. Powell, a retired U.S. army general who rose to political prominence after a long and accomplished military career, said that health care reform and many of Mr. Obama's other initiatives are "important" to Americans.

But, he said, "one of the cautions that has to be given to the president -- and I've talked to some of his people about this -- is that you can't have so many things on the table that you can't absorb it all."

"And we can't pay for it all," said Mr. Powell, who was the first African-American to serve as secretary of state, under former President George W. Bush. He was also national security adviser to President Reagan, and was chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under President George H.W. Bush from 1989 to 1993...
