A Quick Lesson in Clintonese

Turns out the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s email server is actually an investigation and not a security inquiry as Clinton calls it. After all, she learned from the best. It is my hope that no charges will be filed, but sometimes words really have meaning.

Even though Hillary Clinton has repeatedly described the FBI probe over her use of a private email server as a “security inquiry,” FBI Director James Comey today questioned the use of that phrase.

“I don’t know what that means,” Comey told reporters today in Washington, D.C. “We’re conducting an investigation. That’s the bureau’s business. That’s what we do.”

One reporter noted that former Secretary of State Clinton often refers to it as a “security inquiry.”

The word “investigation” — “it’s in our name,” Comey responded. “And I’m not familiar with the term ‘security inquiry.’”
