Featured Ambassador Fired by Hillary Drops BOMBSHELL About Her Email Scandal [VIDEO]

    It was recently revealed that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was using a private email address on a private email server while serving as head of the State Department.

    As if the potentially felonious secrecy of hiding her communications from the American public weren’t bad enough, we can now add a whole heap of hypocrisy on top of this scandal.

    It turns out that in 2012, while Hillary was still in charge of the State Department, the Ambassador to Kenya, Scott Gration, was fired from his position for using a private email account to conduct business.

    This was apparently in violation of Hillary’s own rules, rules that she herself was hypocritically breaking while enforcing them on others.

    Such was the message delivered by Gration, also a retired Air Force general, who called the whole situation an obvious double standard.

    According to BizPac Review, Gration told CNN host Michael Smerconish that in light of the news about Hillary’s own private emails, he now feels his dismissal for the same thing is unfair.

    “As I was going through it, I did not perceive that it was a double standard because I did not know of Secretary Clinton’s use of a commercial email account,” Gration said. “But as I’ve reflected on it in the last couple of days, it does appear like there was a different standard that was used in my case and that has been used in hers.”

    You wish.

    A certain group of democrats that hate Hillary. care a great deal. They want her election chances eliminated entirely. This is their first shot across the bow. There will be others.

    And because democrats are behind her email revalations, it won't go away until something "better" replaces it.

    Not that anyone here cares, but the ambassador was asked to resign for a number of reasons, including "The Ambassador has lost the respect and confidence of the staff to lead the mission. Of more than 80 chiefs of mission inspected in recent cycles, the Ambassador ranked last for interpersonal relations, next to last on both managerial skill and attention to morale, and third from last in his overall scores from surveys of mission members."

    and

    "The Ambassador has damaged the cohesion of Embassy Nairobi’s country team by underscoring differences between offices working directly with Kenya and those with regional responsibilities. Country team members, particularly those from other agencies, relied on the recently departed deputy chief of mission to maintain a sense of common purpose at Embassy Nairobi. Unless corrected there is a risk that the country team will become dysfunctional. The Ambassador needs to broaden his understanding of why various agencies are part of his mission, cease avoiding contact with them, and work with the assistance of a senior Department of State (Department) official and the next deputy chief of mission to restore country team harmony."

    He sounds a lot like Hillary.

    Did pretty much what he wanted to. Didn't seem to think the rules applied to him.

    A lot like Hillary.

    He says that, yet here he is for the 3rd or 4th time.:laugh:

    Here's betting he'll chime in as long as the thread is alive. He cares a lot.;)

    Hillary backer for sure.

    Is that you Jeb? Nobody cares.

    We don't care that you did it. We don't care that Hillary did it. Go back to bed and tomorrow we'll focus on some real issues.:thumbsup:

    What he wants is for people on this board to stop posting about it. When he does not like a topic he harasses people to get them to stop posting about it. He and several others do it regularly. They like to try to control content on the board.

    This is what DNC operatives do. They work to control the message. Shut down the message they do not like and promote what they do.

    Sounds like what you and others do to anyone who doesn't tow your mean, nasty racially prejudiced GOP inspired line.

    Ms. Clinton will probably not be running period. She has crossed President Obama, Michelle and Valarie --not to mention a number of other Democrats. They want her out of contention.

    Number of articles about Clintons email scandal on other news agencies:


    Politico-3
    CNN-1
    National Review-2
    Cspan-21 clips
    CNBC-1


    I could go on but my point is made. Everyone cares about the Clinton email debacle.
