Hillary Clinton's email server continues to pop up in the news

"The FBI has begun looking into the security of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s private e-mail setup, contacting in the past week a Denver-based technology firm that helped manage the unusual system, according to two government officials."
Also last week, the FBI contacted Clinton’s lawyer, David Ken­dall, with questions about the security of a thumb drive in his possession that contains copies of work e-mails Clinton sent during her time as secretary of state...
 

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa) wrote a letter to FBI Director James B. Comey on July 24 asking him what steps his office had taken to ensure that classified information held on Kendall’s thumb drive, and once kept on Clinton’s server, was being properly secured. A State Department official said that once the agency identified classified material in the e-mails in May, it instructed Clinton’s lawyers on “appropriate measures for physically securing” the e-mails. 
There was nothing particularly new in this article, other than what the polls continually show. Hillary has a trustworthy and transparency problem.

I guess it's all up to Obama. There are other reports that he does not like the Clintons. Both of them.

I wonder when someone is going to create a twitter account like Obama's Teleprompter and call it @Hillary'sEmailServer?

Obama's waiting to stick the knife in because he knows the Clintons have the goods on him as well. I doubt he comes off particularly well in the emails, too. In the meantime, drip drip drip, the details emerge sloooowly. He's hoping she self-immolates. And not that I care one bit but this feud is going to cost Dems a lot. They've got it coming but, man, if I was a true blue Dem I'd be furious with these prima donnas and their self-indulgent high stakes game playing and manipulations. Wait, no, strike that. If I was a true blue Dem I'd get all excited, choose a side (Team Hillary! Team Obama), and start a Twitter war featuring racial and gender stereotypes and a lot of incoherent vulgarity and community college logic (same thing) and end up blaming Republicans and conservatives for everything anyway.

I have this feeling that Hillary used her own personal server instead of the Government's because she didn't want Obama and his close friends to view what she was doing.

I think there's a strong possibility that the in-the-loop press, particularly the NY Times and the Washington Post have information they have not publicized that is even more damaging to Clinton than the info they have printed and are trying to ease Clinton out of the race before that info goes public.

Look at the picture the Post used to lead the article linked by Lem. I've never seen them do that before. Never.
