Growltiger sat on her haunches, flicking her tail and licking her chops as she watched Mrs. Hillary Clinton's epic, Olympic-level skate after the Feds caught her conducting government (and whatever else) business on a private server while she was Secretary of State. Who knows who hacked into that server? Who cares? As the former Secretary herself said of the You-Tube video raid on Benghazi on the anniversary of 9-11, "At this point, what difference does it make?"
The humans' reactions when FBI Director Comey gave Mrs. Clinton a free skate were actually more interesting than Mrs. Clinton's free skate itself. The aforementioned expressions ranged from smug (Mrs. Clinton, Attorney General Loretta Lynch, Former President Bill Clinton and President Obama) to pained (FBI Director Comey who probably understood he was taking the FBI to new lows) to shock (judges, pundits and prosecutors who understood the law had been broken and were aghast that nothing was going to be done about it) to anger (men and women who have watched the Clintons flout the law and flaunt their power since they came onto the political scene) to profound sadness (the ones who understood that Mr. Comey has just verified that the United States no longer is a country governed by the rule of law, but rather, like any other Banana Republic, Dictatorship or Feudal kingdom, is governed by the rule of men -- or in this case, women.)
Put simply, Mrs. Clinton was and is "too big to jail".
Growltiger took some feline pleasure in knowing it never occurred to her that Mrs. Clinton wouldn't skate. The tiger cat was never so naive as to believe the woman who was agile enough to double Axel Whitewater, toe loop Castle Grand, flip Travelgate and Salchow a $1,000 investment in cattle futures into $100,000 return in just ten months wouldn't also be able to pull off a quadruple loop and out maneuver an FBI Director who had to take into consideration his reputation, future and most importantly his government pension and retirement by being foolish enough to refer for prosecution a Democrat presidential candidate to a Democrat Attorney General who had just had a tete-a-tete with the Democrat candidate's husband, a former Democrat president himself, when their airplanes just happened to touch down at the same airport at about the same time. (You cannot make this stuff up).
As a thought experiment, try to imagine this same scenario only substitute Donald Trump's name for Hillary Clinton's. While you're at it, try to remember the media firestorm that evolved when Richard Nixon was caught covering up a break-in about which he had no foreknowledge.
In Mr. Comey's defense, he probably convinced himself that Mrs. Clinton has surely learned her lesson, and if elected, she most likely won't expose any more state secrets to the Russians, Chinese and North Koreans, all of whom most certainly hacked the private server from which she conducted State Department business she didn't want available to nosy busybodies like the American people.
Unfortunately, Growltiger can't tell her dear readers much else about E-mailgate because in truth, the feisty feline didn't pay any attention to what was going on. She understood from the outset that unless Vice President Biden got into the race and gave the majority media a candidate to back, the majority media which is only slightly more partisan than the DNC, was going to encircle and protect Mrs. Clinton the way musk oxen encircle and protect their babies when the wolves attack.
Be on the lookout for the next media expose of Donald Trump's casinos, lack of compassion for illegal immigrants and/or the fact that Globalist Establishment Republicans don't like him any more than Globalist Establishment Democrats do.
