James Carville: Hillary Clinton didn’t want Louie Gohmert ‘rifling through her emails’

March 15, 2015

 In an attempt to defend Hillary Clinton’s use of her personal email account to conduct State Department business James Carville might have accidentally admitted what we all feel is most likely the truth–the former first lady did not want the Congress to read her emails. Here is what he had to say:

“At the end of the day, the Republicans can’t pass a budget, we have another investigation,” Carville said. “Just like we had the Whitewater. Just like you go through File-gate. You go through Travel-gate. You go through seven or different eight congressional committees. You wonder why the public is not following this, because they know what it is. It was something she did. It was legal. I suspect she didn’t want Louie Gohmert rifling through her emails. Which seems to me to be a kind of reasonable position for someone to take. It amounts to,  just like everything else before it, it amounts to nothing a bunch of people flapping their jaws about nothing.”

  That would be all very well and good, of course, if Hillary Clinton was using her personal email account for personal reasons and personal reasons alone; if that were the case the Congress would have no reason to, and no basis for, “rifling through her emails.” 

  However, as we all know by now, that was not the case so this admission leads us to one obvious question: why didn’t Hillary Clinton want  Louie Gohmert and the Congress “rifling through” her State Department emails which were apparently hidden on her personal email server?

    It wasn’t legal. Emails sent from private accounts are supposed to be archived within 20 days of being sent. Clinton waited 2 years and she didn’t do it voluntarily, the State Dept had to ask for them.

    She says her emails were archived because they were sent to government accounts. Well, what about the ones that weren’t???

    Since no one read the supposed ‘personal’ emails before they were deleted. We have only this known liar’s word that the emails were personal.

    I am so disgusted with these people and those who defend them. Utterly disgusted!

      I understand your frustration! It is maddening to me that people will just accept her word that she only deleted her personal emails, especially after we learned that not even the aides who deleted them looked at them to make sure they were personal!

    Two years seems to be the typical holding period for requested documents germane to a Clintonian investigation; Rose Law firm anyone?

    10 days and this is the best they could come up with? The vast right wing conspiracy is apparently alive and well. Too bad it looks like Val Jar may have had her fingers in the pie.

      It turns out the vast right wing conspiracy might just be a vast left wing conspiracy…

    So, Carville crawled out from under a rock to run cover for his pal? Since when do we need his two cents worth on the Clintons? I think we have their number, at least those of us paying attention do. Carville is a “has been” and should just go away!

        Maybe they have a “file” on him as well, who knows. That seems to be the name of the game for these electeds now. Make sure you have some dirt on people, just in case, mind you!

        I understand that and I wouldn’t be surprised if it is true. I believe obama (jarrett) has files on many people.

        Carville is a has-been, though. Does anyone even listen to him anymore?
