THIS IS CALLED "THE UPWARD FACING DOG POSE"
Imagine this scenario. You are at work, and your boss comes up and asks for an email you sent to a client who has since decided to sue the firm.
Your reply? “Sure – just give me a few months to print them out and have my staff go through them. I’m not turning over my actual electronic files though. ..
Boss: “WTF !! Why not?”
You: “Well, I never actually used the official corporate email system these past 6 years. I had a private email server installed by the Geek Squad in my closet”
Boss: “What’s that got to do with it? If anything, it makes it worse”
You: “Well, I’ve broken no laws – that I’m aware of. Just explicitly defined work rules. Anyway, I have 32,000 personal emails commingled with my work stuff. Funeral services for my mom. Wedding arrangements for my daughter. Yoga routines . . .”
Boss: “Sorry to hear about your mother. Congrats on your daughter. And no we don’t care about your Yoga pants. its stuff related to the lawsuit we need to see – and pronto”
You: “I’ll see what I can do. There must be at least 55,000 pages out there. I’ll have my staff get on it right away, but realistically this isn’t going to happen overnight”
Boss sputters in indignation.
You: “Sorry for the inconvenience. Anyway, I quit, so don’t even think about firing me. And I might be running for president, so don’t get on my wrong side. I have a long enemies list, and you DON’T want to get on that . . .”
Preposterous right? Not for Hillary, of course. Two of the more mind boggling lies she came up with this week:
“Bill and I had a number of emails back and forth among the 32,000 personal messages which I’m not releasing” (paraphrase). Bill immediately contradicted this by asserting “I’ve only sent 2 emails in my entire life”.
Actually, BOTH of these sound like lies, don’t they? A powerful ex president, globetrotting around the world raking in speaking fees for “The Clinton (non campaign) Foundation”. Two emails in his entire life? Really?
The second Hillary lie was even more brazen. “I opted for convenience . ..(instead of complying with government regulations) and decided to carry only one device.” Wait – roll the videotape from 2 weeks ago, where she admitted carrying both an iPhone and a Blackberry. Or an even earlier interview (AFTER she set up her private email server) where she admitted carrying 4 devices - 2 phones, plus both a mini and a regular iPad. “I don't throw anything away. I'm like two steps short of a hoarder” http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2015/03/10/hillary_clinton_one_phone_defense_even_more_questionable_given_that_she.html
Yes – she really, really said that.
That’s the problem when your most basic instinct is to lie continually. You can’t recall what you said previously, and everything ends up contradicting each other. I learned this early on watching an old episode of “Dragnet”, during interrogation of robbery suspects.
So what does Hillary expect of us NOW? “You’ll have to trust me, that the 32,000 emails I’m not releasing are personal and don’t reveal any crimes or unsavory activities while I was on the taxpayers’ dime”.
Trust me.
I’m sure diehard democrats will. They’re already screeching that this is a fake scandal made up by republicans, simply to make Hillary look bad.
The republicans aren’t smart enough to make Hillary look this bad, though. Only she is capable of this sort of fantastically tragic result.
Full disclosure – today’s photo is of Hillary using one of the iPads she denied owning in yesterday’s press conference. Notice Attorney General Eric Holder craning his neck to get a better look. Do you think it’s a selfie of Hillary in her yoga togs? You know how (some) black men seem to find “PAWG”s (phat ass white girls) irresistible . . .
