Huffington Post Sandernista Prays for Guccifer Salvation

May 10th, 2016 5:24 PM

Please, dear Guccifer. Please save us from the Evil Overlord Hillary with your revelations about hacking her email server. 

That is not a prayer from a conservative Republican hoping that the testimony of Romanian hacker "Guccifer" whose real name is Marcel-Lehel Lazar will discredit Hillary Clinton to such an extent that she would no longer be a viable candidate. Instead this fervid hope comes from a Bernie Sanders supporter, H.A. Goodman, who writes perhaps a bit too optimistically about this possibility in the Huffington Post as you can tell from this article title, Romanian Hacker ‘Guccifer’ Just Gave Bernie Sanders the Democratic Nomination:

There’s only one Democratic candidate not linked to an ongoing FBI investigation, and his name is Bernie Sanders. Vermont’s Senator will become Democratic nominee for many reasons, but a cyber hacker named “Guccifer” just solidified the fact only one candidate can type an email without scandal. Superdelegates exist so that Republicans like Donald Trump won’t use FBI investigations and foreign hackers against a Democratic nominee.

Hmm... So does this mean the Superdelegates who are in the bag for Hillary will suddenly switch to Bernie after they read Guccifer's Book of Revelation? And why wouldn't they just as easily switch to Joe Biden? However, since Goodman is in such a state of joy, why break his happy mood?

...the future Commander in Chief according to the smartest people in the room didn’t “willfully” violate laws, so this means Clinton is qualified to run the country. What they ignore is the reality that owning a server for “convenience” is almost certainly an outright lie. Every defender of Hillary Clinton’s email use, including the unnamed sources “close” to the FBI investigation, assume Clinton’s server was only used for convenience.

In addition, not “willfully” breaking laws doesn’t mean no laws were broken. It’s a sad day for American democracy when supporters of a presidential candidate are proud that no laws were “willfully” broken. Nonetheless, even if Clinton seriously believed a private server was convenient, and there was no political motive, “gross negligence” is enough to prosecute under the Espionage Act.

And you somehow believe the current highly politicized Justice Department is going to indict Hillary Clinton? Perhaps you should consult Lois Lerner about that possibility. However, Goodman believes indictments are likely as you can see him explain in the following video.
