Remember The GOP Email Scandal?

Many of the people now screaming for Hillary Clinton to turn over her server and make all her emails public (even the private ones) are the same freedom-protectors who went absolutely apeshit when Edward Snowdon publicly leaked NSA documents and shattered our notions of information privacy.

I'm not suggesting that the Clinton and Snowdon situations are the same, but in one case they demand bright sunshine, and in the other they're appalled when the curtain is pulled open.  Having it both ways?

Even though I'd like to see her flip 'em all off and tell 'em it's none of their friggin' business, maybe Hillary should just cough up the server, clear the air and be done with it.  (A friend says she'll do just that, as soon as all of Bill's porn can be removed!)

Are the FUD-mongers being unfair to Hillary?  Well, there was that time in 2007 when it was discovered that Karl Rove and and other presidential staffers had deleted 22 million White House emails on a private, non-government Republican National Committee server, which Rove and crew used almost exclusively for official communications.  This email-deletion revelation came about as Congressional Democrats started asking questions about the Bush administration's sudden firing of eight U.S. Attorneys for political reasons.  (All eight were Republican, but not Republican enough.)  So the D's poke around a little and -- poof! -- 22 million emails vanished.

Do you remember the indignant public uproar that resulted from this scandalous disclosure?  Me neither, because there wasn't one.

Goddam liberal media!
