Comey: Hillary isn't "particularly sophisticated" about classified levels

Washington -- She doesn't know what wiping a server means. She doesn't know what a (C) means embedded in her emails. She doesn't know how to tell the truth if it goes against her political or financial interests.

Hillary Clinton, former First Lady, former Secretary of State, has used the "incompetence" defense regarding her use of a private email server and that was supported by FBI Director James Comey at the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on Thursday.

Comey said that Mrs. Clinton is not "particularly sophisticated" enough to understand confidential markings on three of her emails. 

To be sophisticated enough would require that she be able to memorize that '(C)' stands for 'Confidential' when embodied alongside a paragraph of an email. She may have tried to memorize that designation, but it's highly likely she was not able to comprehend this intricate requirement. 

Comey admitted that Clinton was "extremely careless" about her handling of the emails, and the left downplayed the significance of the classified emails since there were only 3 discussed. But since nobody died in this instance as they did in Benghazi, no foul.

The question was also not asked as to whether someone who couldn't adequately handle classified emails could adequately handle the running of a country.
