In March 2015, President Barack Obama told CBS News that he did not know Hillary Clinton used a private email system when she served as secretary of state and claimed he learned about it from the news just like everybody else. Well, Wikileaks posted an email that proves otherwise:
This was in March 2015. He repeated the same thing to 60 minutes in October 2015.
Bill Plante: Mr. President, when did you first learn Hillary Clinton used an email system outside of the US government for official business while she was secretary of state?
Obama: The same time when everyone else learned about it through news reports.
Then, in October 2015, Obama said the exact same thing during a 60 minutes interview and said the email server did not pose as a national security threat.
Steve Kroft: Did you know about Hillary Clinton’s use of private email server–
President Barack Obama: No.
Steve Kroft: –while she was Secretary of State?
President Barack Obama: No.
Steve Kroft: Do you think it posed a national security problem?
President Barack Obama: I don’t think it posed a national security problem….
Here’s the deal. On September 23, the FBI released over 200 pages of its interview notes from the Hillary email investigation. It revealed that Obama used a pseudonym in his emails to Hillary. Aide Huma Abedin told the FBI the president can only receive emails FROM APPROVED ADDRESSES. They had to inform the White House when Hillary changed her private email address so that way her communications would get through the server.
He knew Hillary’s email address was not a state.gov address. It doesn’t take a genius to know that her private email address was therefore on a separate server.
Today, Wikileaks dumped more emails from Hillary’s campaign chair John Podesta’s email address. Included in the batch is an email from Hillary aide Josh Schwerin to Hillary’s communications aide Jennifer Palmieri about a tweet by Katherine Miller on March 7 that questioned Obama’s claims he only found out about the email system through the media.
So not only did he know about it, but he went on national television TWICE and lied to the American people.

Lying is always easier than fixing the problem. Besides, the Chicago way is that the ends justify the means.
All it took was one call to the DOJ and one call to the FBI and the whole thing went away.
Oh, PAAAAleeeeeze…!!! For Obama to stop lying, he’d have to be dead or in a vegetative state. If he was reduced to poking a laptop with a wooden spoon, he’d still find a way to lie…early and often…
Oh come now… people can change. Even die-hard liberals can change their nature, given the right motivation.
For example, Ted Kennedy has been sober for years now.
Unless the devil allows liquor in hell.
OMG – that is funny! Just spit tea all over my screen!
LOL. Good’n.
Sobering up hasn’t changed Teddy’s private citizen voting habits over the last 7 years though now has it?
Honestly, did anyone suspect less? When they tell us the server wasn’t hacked, they didn’t sell weapons to drug lords in Mexico didn’t use the IRS to suppress conservative groups, they weren’t behind training, supplying and helping ISIS, the Iraqis wouldn’t work with us on a use of force agreement, they didn’t bribe Iran to agree to the treaty, no soldiers were abandoned on the field of battle in Benghazi and the vote isn’t rigged and we are now supposed to believe them. . . Oh, contraire my little bird. . . I think not.
obama lied ?
Of course, obama always lies…
And it’s the Russian’s fault..
Bush’s fault!
This reminds me of when Obama said there is “Not even a smidgen of corruption.” at the IRS! When talking about The IRS targeting conservative groups.
He is a pathological/serial liar!
A pompous, elite, idiot who has done much damage to our nation!
Thats according to what the definition of smidgen is
The real concern for me is that friends of mine who just love, love, love this creep refuse to see/admit any of this to themselves or anyone else.
Suffering from Clintonesia , a not so rare form of amnesia brought on by the words ,:’ Do you promise to tell the thuth , the whole truth
I agree with Rudy Guilliani’s comments this morning. If HRC wins this election – R’s will not recover for 20-30 years (if ever). However, with that being said, that is exactly what got us to the state of politics today. Little meek R’s would not stand up for what is right in this country and let the libs run it into the ground.
What’s that old saying about the cover up? Honestly color me stunned (it’s magenta I think) that a politician would lie when the truth and repairing the damage would have made it all go away so much faster. Well what do you expect of the Clinton Crime family and their associates. Is lying so ingrained in them that the first thing they think of is lying even if the truth would work just as well?
Getting caught in this lie is really going to hurt Obama’s reelection campaign. Oh, wait. That’s right. He’s a lame duck who can’t be damaged by anything less than video of him practicing, um, uh, animal husbandry, let’s call it.
And don’t forget that Obama’s secure blackberry was set up to allow communication (i.e. e-mail, text, calls) from clintonmail.com and/or Hillary’s non-secure blackberry. Wonder when that was set up? Before or after Obama ‘learned’ about its existence? There’s a FOIA begging to happen. Or would Obama block it and claim executive privilege?
