Not long after George W. Bush assumed the presidency in 2001, Rove, his top political aide, set up a private email server for use in the White House. The stated purpose of the system � the primary domain name on which was gwb43.com � was that it would be used exclusively for the sort of political correspondence that Bush and Rove were not permitted to do on the taxpayer's dime.

Seven years later, Bush and Rove were embroiled in two competing scandals � the Valerie Plame scandal, in which operatives for Vice Pres. Dick Cheney, including Rove and Scooter Libby, were accused of unmasking Valerie Plame, a CIA specialist in the black market for weapons of mass destruction, for purely partisan reasons, and the U.S. Attorney purge, in which Rove's political operation in the White House was accused of ordering Attorney General Alberto Gonzales to purge eight U.S. attorneys who were qualified prosecutors and replace them with political hacks with little or no prosecutorial experience.

Rove escaped prosecution in the Libby case, but Libby was convicted (Bush quickly commuted the sentence) on March 6, 2007, at the same time Bush and Rove were under fire for purging the U.S. attorneys. During the investigation, it came to light that Rove's server had been used to send official, non-political emails � correspondence that was required by law to be preserved under the Presidential Records Act.

On April 12, 2007, Rove's operation admitted that it had deleted at least 5 million emails from the server. In December 2009, technicians who had examined the server reported that the number of emails that had been deleted was far greater � 22 million.

What was in the emails? No one will ever know. It's likely as not that there was incriminating evidence in the correspondence that tied Rove and others to the treasonous exposure of Agent Plame (which, at a minimum, was a violation of government security), the U.S. attorneys' purge and perhaps other scandals, including the inquiry into charges that Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff had used his entre with others in the GOP to bribe government officials. Abramoff was in prison serving the first year of his sentence when the email scandal broke.

Trump uses Veterans as pawns for his political gain. He really doesn't give diddly squat about them. He took donations claiming they were for veterans, but only after being investigated, did he start to disperse some of the money.

asecondthought (view profile) Posted 8:06 am, 06/30/2016 TRUMP - The only one that even mentions the VETS waiting months to see a doctor. Call me what you want, but I would never vote for Hillary. She belongs in jail - any member of the military or other DOD civilian who used private email to conduct highly sensitive government correspondence would be in Jail. I guess you think Bush and his cronies should also be in jail for there use of a private server and deletion of e-mails?

If he said vets don't get good health care, he is lying. I am a vet and I use veteran care for my health needs. I am more then satisfied with my medical care from the veteran's service. You actually get to see a real doctor and most time 2 of them on a visit.

Trump did mention the Vets. He said they were thieves.

So, Cory Lewandouchebag and Bobby Knight.

Good Lord.

Considering the alternative, Trump is the only option. My decision is based largely upon who would likely put together the most intelligent, qualified, and non-political team to run the administration. The team built around a President is, at least, as important as the President himself.

PRESIDENT TRUMP

I just can't vote for an old fat socialist white woman in a pantsuit.

IDK but it looks like to me you have had to much already.

I'll drink to that

I think most people will wake up at some point and realize a criminal like crooked Hillary could never be President.

Maybe I'll flip a coin

He has insulted ever group but old fat white men in sheets.
