Clinton email issue has prompted Hearings..

Republican lead Select Committee on Benghazi has already scheduled hearings on the Clinton email issue.
Sec Clinton states the requirement to preserve did not apply when she took office but came in later.

Republicans wasted no time to make political hay out of what may be nothing.
Why does the GOP fear Sec Clinton if she's "one of them"?

So why didnt they question all these remaining emails when the Benghazi hearings were taking place?

Why bring it up now as so critical as to hold hearings just before she prepares to announce her candidacy?
Hmm..pretty obvious answer there.
Why do they fear her if she, as some here on DU say, " is just another Republican"?

They are scared to death of her & want to end her candidacy before it begins.
Why? If "she is one of them?"

Perhaps the deleted emails were personal & were deleted so as not to expose PRIVATE PERSONAL EMAILS, as Jeb Bush did.
This will go the way of the Benghazi hearings.
Nothing.

and waste billions on Email gate. They are scared of HRC, because she can beat all their candidates with her eyes closed and they know it.

If not, why not? Did they use personal email, or communicate in some other way? We know Kerry does use .gov, why didn't Hagel? These are the things that should be looked at--if they are NOT looked at and explained, then the investigation is purely political and not an examination of the administration's practices.

All her communications as Secretary of State are owned by the people. She has unlawfully taken private possession of this public property. And Lord knows how many national security laws she broke in the process of handling secret and classified information through an insecure network.

And one more powerful than anything they have to challenge her for 2016.
They fear her because of the strength of Dem support she has.
