[ link to www.politicsdaily.com] Should Hillary Clinton resign as secretary of state due to the WikiLeaks revelations? My friend Jack Shafer at Slate makes a good case. His reason: Clinton, like predecessor Condoleezza Rice, signed orders instructing U.S. foreign service officers to spy on the diplomats of other nations. Cables went out under her name telling State Department officials overseas to collect the fingerprints, facial images, DNA, and iris scans of African leaders, to obtain passwords, credit card numbers, and frequent flyer accounts used by foreign diplomats, and to gather private information on United Nations officials, including Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. Diplomats are not spies (though spies do pose as diplomats). They do collect information -- by working contacts overseas, reviewing the local media, interacting with the population of the nations where they are stationed -- often acquiring intelligence that is as valuable, if not more so, than the secrets snatched by intelligence officials. But there is a line between a diplomat and a spook. The former uses aboveboard methods to find out what his or her government needs to know about other nations; the latter resorts to espionage, wiretaps, bribery, and other underhanded means. There are many reasons for keeping the two roles distinct. Diplomats are awarded immunity and can gain certain access overseas because they are not spies. politicsdaily.com |

Naw, they want the same freedom in other political parties, and the only way fascists learn anything is I guess to have their man-made Armageddon (which will affect other people so move out of the way and let them all go back to Hell). |

She ordered people to break the law which is a crime. She should be prosecuted for a crime like this but the libtard media refuses to insist that she be held accountable. That's one of the benefits to be a communist piece of shit, you have the corrupt state run media on your side. That cunt belongs in jail. Pearl Harbor was an inside job. |
