If it took the Russians to expose the inner workings of the DNC and their attempts to manipulate the election, so be it.

What you should be asking though is if the Russians did hack the electoral process, not the just the DNC Emails, why didn't the Obama administration stop them?

Ive asked that in a few threads none on the left had any answers. If in fact the CIA knows that the russians were hacking, why didnt Obamas appointees step in and stop it. Id bet obama got briefed on it. The cia didnt just find out after the fact. Something really stinks here and if you read Ethereals thread and the thread I put up about the entire intelligence community disputing the CIAs claim, it gives for interesting thought

That is NOT a good question. Why would we expect a foreign power to interfere in our election process? You people are expecting "the Obama administration" to have superpowers. Act like Americans for a change! Did you want to win by ANY means?

But, wait, AZJim. You've slipped off the approved positions. Number one, the Democrat Party is happy to take money from foreign nationals and to have foreign nationals voting. The Democrat position has been recently that we don't need borders but rather bridges. What happened?

And, when the Democrat Party quits having dead people vote, quits encouraging foreign nationals to vote, quits coercing the elderly with dementia to sign absentee ballots, quits encouraging criminals to vote repeatedly and quits suing states that want honest elections. they might have a tiny little bit of credibility concerning wanting honest elections.

And, the hypocrites watched President Barack Obama campaigning for Great Britain to stay in the E.U. Meddling much?

I'm still waiting for two things.
Actual proof beyond a reasonable doubt that it happened at all. So far, all we've had is the same BS that has been going on since the elections. Accusations about the repubs cheating.
Then, I want to see how they exactly manufactured their spoof and the exact nature of the outcome. Did they alter votes? No evidence of that has surfaced.
Regardless, the American voter had a right to know some of these things. the DNC versus Sanders, the plans they had created on line were susceptible to hacking, and Hillary knew this from her prior experience with her own server.
If you don't want someone to find out your under-handed plans, the internet is the LAST place you should discuss this business.....

St. James, can you get a more reliable, more honorable, or more trusted Democrat than the Honorable Senator Harry Reid to tell you:

"'It's obvious he was a partisan in all this,' Reid told CNN (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/cnn/index.html). 'There's information out there. He had it, I'm confident. And he ignored it.'
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4027778/Partisan-Comey-ignored-reports-Russian-meddling-single-handedly-cost-Clinton-election-Trump-campaign-according-Harry-Reid.html#ixzz4Siw7ElaJ

Of course, for me, the lying weasel seals the case that the Democrats are lying again. I got a phone call last night from someone in a position to know who said Sen. Harry Reid has not told the truth in ten years.

Easy. The supposed hacking took place in both the DNC and RNC, but they only released information on the DNC. If Obama did anything, the first thing out of the right's mouth would have been how Obama was protecting Clinton.

Donald Trumps Theory On Catching Hackers Gives Cybersecurity Pros The Giggles

Along those lines: Is it impossible to track down an embezzler unless you see him taking the money?
WASHINGTON – President-elect Donald Trump claimed Monday that tracking computer hackers is virtually impossible unless they are caught “in the act” – a theory that comes as news to cybersecurity experts.

“That’s just silly,” laughed John Schindler, who worked for 10 years as an analyst at the National Security Agency. “That is just simply false.”

A review of forensic evidence pointed to the Russians, said James Lewis, a cybersecurity expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. “No one expects Putin to burst into tears on national TV and confess. Ambiguity is normal in espionage, but there shouldn’t be any doubt,” he said.

Trump’s Monday morning tweet ― one of two that countered fresh reports that Russia had actively tried to boost his candidacy by hacking Democratic emails ― also asked, “Why wasn’t this brought up before election?” ..............

Political parties are private organizations, not public. They are not bound by the results of the primaries, their rules are their own not the governments. If they wanted they could have just nominated Clinton and bypassed the whole primary process. There are no standards except those they set for themselves.

Are they required to? Not by any laws they aren't.

Russian hackers attacked email accounts linked to the Republican National Committee (RNC), according to a report late Sunday by ABC News.

Also from your link, which BTW I've previously read;

"Neither federal authorities nor RNC officials reportedly were concerned, however, because the email systems in question were outdated.
RNC spokesman Sean Spicer told the network that one of the emails belonged to an employee who departed from the RNC several years ago. A cybersecurity firm hired by the RNC to investigate the issue found that the employee’s email account was still on his personal computer, but the investigation found that the device had not been linked to an RNC server in several years."

“The DNC [hack] was the crown jewels. The RNC not as much,” an official briefed on the information, who is affiliated with Republicans, told ABC.

According to another official who spoke to ABC, federal authorities were not as worried about the hack on the RNC because “the extent of the compromises were completely different.”

Neither. Did the RNC experience an event, where someone who was not authorized to access their system, accessed their system? If you want to split hairs and focus on it being "an outdated system" or "an employee not employed by them for several years", that's fine, but at the end of the day, if someone asked if they had been hacked, then the answer would have to be yes.

I think we should have a thorough, high-quality investigation of the allegation of Russian hacking. It can begin after the inauguration. We can begin with the Clinton unauthorized server. We can indict and try Crooked. We can investigate the poor network security at the DNC. We can investigate the tight linkage between the left-media, the DNC, and the Clinton campaign. We can do our best to identify all of the hackers who traipsed through the various networks.
We can do a better job of using the NSA to identify attacks and to help organizations protect themselves.

None of those require an attempted Democratic party-led coup.

That's a good start but we should finally do an in depth investigation of the voting systems in every state to assure they are secure and to find out if people are voting who shouldn't be or if people are able to misuse the system. The democrats suddenly seem to think there are serious issues that need addressing since they lost the election. I think we should find out once and for all. In reality though I think they will probably want the whole thing to go quietly away now that its obvious they aren't going to be able to overturn this election.

I think a better option is a national identity standard that voters in national elections must meet in order to vote. The states can implement individual programs to meet the standards. if a state fails to meet the standard their votes do not count.

That is NOT a good question. Why would we expect a foreign power to interfere in our election process? You people are expecting "the Obama administration" to have superpowers. Act like Americans for a change! Did you want to win by ANY means?

Any means.

That statement pretty much sums up this poster. No one could possibly take anything he says seriously.

Do you live in Kansas? Do you know Anyone who does? Trust me, there are people here just like is described.

yeah..we look at you guys.......you are projecting yourself all over the place.
Look, the world did not end, there was no global flood, war did not break out, you lost nothing in this election...........
Doom and destruction has been predicted time and time again if the Repubs regained control, but none of that bad stuff has happened.
If you insist on crying foul, show us the evidence, or show us how the direct tinkering affected the outcome. Otherwise, you're still dealing from an empty hand

Actually, you just described the past 8 years, with the wishing and wanting from the right that Obama was going to bring the zombie apocalypse. Compare every government metric from 2008 to now for reality.

If I were the Russians, I would be hacking everyone. If I were Putin, I would be trying to create political instability by any means possible because as long as American politicians are pointing fingers at each other, they are paying less attention to Russia.

What part of this don't you understand Safety ??

"We contacted the FBI months ago when the [alleged hacking of the Democratic National Committee] issue came about. They reviewed all of our systems. We have hacking-detection systems in place, and the conclusion was then, as it was again two days ago when we went back to the FBI to ask them about this, that the RNC was not hacked," Priebus said today on ABC News' "This Week."

What part do I not understand? There is nothing I don't understand when I say the RNC experienced someone accessing their system without authorization, or better known as "hacking". Now, your mistake is trying to imply that I am saying it was as extensive as the DNC's hacking situation, but then again, what else is new.

i'm pretty sure hanger's gonna win the vezina this year.

Ok, ok the FBI lied when they said the RNC system hasn't been hacked.

The FBI couldn't nail down the motive. But because they were looking for a motive they acknowledge the breach.

imagine the outrage when the Dems got outed. If the dems hadn't posted their plans to the internet, they would have gotten away with it. They would have applauded their deception if no one had rung the bell on them. Now, they're just plain old mad that they got found out.

So the end justifies the means?

So, you would have just as soon not to have this stuff leaked. Fine.....
If you don't want to get caught, don't do it. If you don't want the world to know what's going on, DO NOT PUT IT ON A COMPUTER!!!!!
Now, to your query. This is how I look at it. The DNC server was just as secure as her private server. They claimed that those servers were quite secure. Well, guess what.......an unsecure computer is easy prey for hackers and that information she didn't want to come to light, did.
It could have been China, NKorea, Germany, France..... hell, it could have been the damned Egyptians. If that's what it takes, and our own government is too afraid to go after them, then let the international community know what Clinton is hiding.
What difference does it make now????

I agree with your point that if you don't want it out there then don't make it possible. I don't agree that the end justifies the means.

So, I'm not suppose to believe Priebus claim the FBI said RNC wasn't hacked. Very verifiable. But I am suppose to believe a NYT's story from anonymous sources the RNC was hacked and any information was withheld. Totally unverifiable.
