We have Clearance, Clarence

I'm not ignoring all of the violence.  I'm just tired of it, and I don't have a whole lot to say right now except that we need to stop shooting each other.  Since the last post, we've had a black man shoot a bunch of officers in Baton Rouge, and there's breaking news from a few hours ago that an officer in Miami shot a black man who had his hands up and was literally doing his job, which was taking care of an autistic man.  Thank God that man survived.  Maybe God will use him to bring some sanity and unity to this nation.  I've never met him, but he just looks like the kind of guy who may be able to help do just that.  And unlike a lot of the others that became BLM poster children, this guy is both alive and appears to have done absolutely nothing wrong whatsoever, in fact going out of his way to make sure he did everything right to make sure that he would not get shot.  And yet he did get shot.  And then he got handcuffed?  What the hell?  There aren't many details on this yet, and we don't know which officer fired the shot or even what race the officer was, so let me move on to the topic I've put off for a few weeks now...

I work for a company that makes a lot of parts for defense contractors.  Naturally, I know a lot of people with security clearances because of this.  I also know some people who have had their security clearances revoked.  One, I believe, had it revoked for defaulting on a loan.  There are tons of other reasons you can have it revoked or not have it granted in the first place.  Check them out for yourself here: http://www.military.com/veteran-jobs/security-clearance-jobs/security-clearance-eligibility.html.  I'm not making this up.  Now, based on that list, how many times is Hillary Clinton disqualified from having a security clearance?  Be honest.  Did you lose count?

One of the more egregious things you can do to disqualify yourself from having a security clearance is being extremely careless with classified information.  According to the FBI, Hillary did exactly that.  According to EVERY SINGLE PERSON I've talked to about this that has a security clearance, if they did the same things that Hillary did, they would not only unquestionably have their security clearances revoked, but also almost certainly be terminated from their jobs, and likely face legal action as well.  Meanwhile, Hillary is not facing legal action and is currently seeking the highest job in the land.  She is running for President when she should not even be allowed to have a security clearance, because she put our nation in danger by being extremely careless with classified information on her personal server.

Assuming she sleeps with a former President with the same last name at least a few times per year, I understand that taking away her security clearance is a moot point.  Being a former President, Bill is still briefed on the the most sensitive of matters, and Hillary is certainly privy to these briefings.  But what makes this whole thing worse is that Hillary lied about what she did.  Repeatedly.  Trey Gowdy tore her a new one when he questioned James Comey.  That man should be this nation's Attorney General.  And I hadn't even mentioned her terrible leadership and lies surrounding Benghazi until just now, and I've already given you plenty of reasons why Killary should never serve as Commander-in-Chief.  And while I'm not the most enthusiastic Trump supporter, to put it mildly, it seems very likely that I will be sounding the Trump-Pence when I vote this November.

Donald Trump has said some stupid things, and he's done some stupid things, but I can't recall an incident in which he truly put national security at risk.  I don't know of a reason why he would be disqualified for a security clearance.  And, while many may dislike him, he does not have blood on his hands like Hillary does.  But please, tell me again how outraged you are that a chunk of Melania Trump's speech the other night echoed Michelle Obama's speech from eight years ago. Apparently this has become relevant, with the Left demanding an apology.  Has Hillary apologized to the families of the Benghazi victims yet?  Or the American people?  Or the world?
