CIA watchdog ‘accidentally destroyed’ copy of ‘torture report’

Totally believable, without question, I completely buy into the story... :roll:

I thought documents were electronic these days, must be a backup somewhere.
 
"My side"?


Hillary deleted the only copy of a 6,700-page report about the CIA’s torture methods?

Ck8it on deleted thousands of official emails. Why are you applying a different standard?

This isnt a email. This is a Senate Intelligence Committee, 6,700-page report about the CIA’s torture methods.
 
She's from a country named after a pot pie, what do you expect???? :mrgreen:

Medusa's not that bad, she just has to realize that to people in the US, especially DOD employees, her comments come off like an American trying to explain Turkey to her because they watch the BBC.

It's all government documents. A by do you insist on a double standard?

Ones emails the other is a 6,700 page report. Comparing apples to oranges for partisan reasons.
 

Lerner emails - Article gives every indication that the "deception" was an internal matter with the IRS acting alone; no indication that the WH was involved.

SBA - Incident occurred before the Obama presidency (2003-2005); lawsuit only came about in February 2008 nearly 1 year before Obama's inauguration.

EPA - Acted alone - no indication of WH connection.

VA - a "culture of mishaps" when taken into account staffers who were charged with adhering to records retention and destruction protocol were constantly pulled from their assigned duties and in their hast to drill through the backlog hastily destroyed medical claims, letters and other documents as well. No WH connection; just stupid in-house recordkeeping/maintenance.

ObamaCare Rollout - chalked up to slopping record keeping; no WH connection.
 
Thanks for being honest about promoting a double standard.

Let me repeat myself. What you are attempting to do is comparing apples to oranges for partisan reasons.

They are all under the purview of the Executive office. At what point do you start holding the leader responsible for the behavior of his staff? My whole comment was that there are a lot of occurrences of important documents that go Missing in the Obama administration, and all of those links count towards that claim regardless of how you choose to minimize them.

You're confirming that you're holding clinto to a different standard.

Never....

Nope, to use your analogy appropriately it would go something like this:

apdst - "There sure are a lot of fruits in that basket"

TheDemSocialist: "No, there are not. There are apples and Oranges."
 
You're confirming that you're holding clinto to a different standard.

Im confirming that you are trying to compare apples to oranges and call them the same.

Nice job covering for Clinton. Your general attitude spells doom for Liberalism.

Nice try... Wait a minute let m,e change that..

Pathetic try. You know exactly what I'm talking about and are simply acting stupid to avoid it. Hillary deleted files/emails she shouldn't have and you have repeatedly supported the whitewashing of those actions.

All were official documents that are supposed to have very clear procedures for handling them and both were wrongly handled. Apples to apples. You're the one trying to make them sound like it's something different for "partisan reasons".

So is your answer a yes or no?

And I supported those actions?

What if there were 6,700 one-page emails about torture?

I don't think you really comprehend that the size of the document has nothing to do with its importance.
 
Much ado about nothing.

The CIA IG accidentally their copy not the only copy. Given that almost everything is drafted electronically I'd find it very hard to believe that only one copy of a 6200 page document that took lots of effort to put together exists.
