EO signed by Obama in 2009 could doom Hillary's 'classified email' excuses, but at least Biden is smiling

**Written by Doug Powers

Hillary Clinton has said that certain emails she received were marked "classified" by the intelligence community AFTER she received them

That claim has been blown out of the water (again) for multiple reasons:

The DIA, the NSA, and the NGA, which oversees U.S. government spy satellites, confirmed to Herridge that the information was classified at the time and remains classified now.

The State Department, along with the Clinton team, have maintained that the information was not classified at the time, with Clinton characterizing the situation as a "disagreement" among agencies about what should be classified.

"That has nothing to do with me," Clinton said last week in Las Vegas.

Herridge noted that under an Obama executive order from 2009, the State Department cannot decide whether information from other agencies should be classified.

She said only the agency that obtains the information can decide whether to mark it as classified.

Still a fan of those Obama EOs, Hillary? 

On Tuesday, the Pentagon wouldn't say if Hillary's emails compromised classified info. We all know what that probably means, and so do certain others:

null

The 2016 race in both parties could be surreal.
