Fascinating!

You don’t say!

Actually, you really don’t say.

Nice formatting of the ambiguous link, though.

A) I don’t like Hillary much this time around

B) About the e-mail/report - if this is as exciting as it gets, she’s a shoe-in to win.

I’m really hoping all Democrat-inclined folks point to Bernie in the primaries. Based on what the GOP has shown so far, I don’t think we have to hold our noses and vote for someone who will beat them, just about any Democratic candidate should be able to. I’d be far more comfortable with President Sanders than the leftward face of the oligarchy. Hillary’s not too muddy, but it ain’t because she’s played clean.

As usual, link froze computer. What the hell is “FOIA”?

Let’s avoid OPs that are just a link with no commentary, in particular when it’s hard to know what the actually link is (especially on mobile devices).

I won’t lock it this time, but next time make it a little more than just a link.
