you walk a tight line .. its all fine and dandy now because the hacks are not pointed in the direction of you candidate but as always once the focus shift (like trumps sexual assault claim ) you can bet the Right will be screaming at the top of their lungs about privacy rights ... or bias

and this is from a conservative site again not sure why some cant see the big picture

Julian Assange Is A Russian Front-Man, Not A Freedom Fighter
Assange’s dissemination of others’ secrets has nothing to do with democracy and transparency, and everything to do with the sordid underworld of international espionage.

"These allegations are both persist ent and disturbing," the two leaders said in a joint statement. "We have no conclusive evidence of wrongdoing, but the seriousness of the allegations, and the weight of circumstantial information, compel an effort to establish the facts."

Funny that sums up about all the republican investigations into the Clintons (revenge for Ronald? Iran contra? ) except the last part "effort to establish the facts " they never believe them in the end reguardless

sounds politically motivated....when does the investigation into the Obama Admin secret negotiations with Iran begin???

"These allegations should be laid to rest once and for all," House Speaker Thomas S. Foley (D-Wash.) and Senate Majority Leader George J. Mitchell (D-Maine) said in a joint statement yesterday. "We have no conclusive evidence of wrongdoing, but the seriousness of the allegations, and the weight of circumstantial information, compel an effort to establish the facts."

House Minority Leader Robert H. Michel (R-Ill.) said he believes Democrats are "wasting an awful lot of money on a charade."

"It's going to end up with nothing being resolved except a lot of political shenanigans," continued Michel. "There is nothing there, and the people back home don't give two hoots about it."

Yesterday's announcement capped several months of informal inquiry by House Democratic leaders to determine whether there was sufficient circumstantial evidence to warrant a full-scale investigation into what has been termed the "October Surprise."


I'm fully in favor of applying the democrat standards going forward.....
