State Department fears snow and global warming

The bad weather has forced a suspension of the war against ISIS--oh, wait--I meant the release of 29 emails of the former airborne Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. 

The State Department is asking for an extension of the requested January 29th date, hoping to be granted the release date of January 29, 2017, what with a presidential election and all somehow getting in the way. 

Republicans are slightly miffed, as is their wont, and will complain bitterly, just to get it on the record. In the end, nothing will be done about this nonsense, and the left will get its way.

Is it any wonder that Trump is ahead in the polls?

Shysters for the department, made the delay request in federal court, the same court that in May, ordered the emails to be released monthly, in response to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit.

The shysters argued: "The Clinton email team must perform its work on site . . . This storm will disrupt the Clinton email team's current plans to work a significant number of hours throughout the upcoming weekend and could affect the number of documents that can be produced on January 29, 2016," the snowflake phobic lawyers wrote.

Perhaps the solution would be to have any branch of the United States military 'work a significant number of hours throughout the upcoming weekend' because they won't use snow or global warming as an excuse--it's too feline-centric.

The lawyers are trying to push the complete email publication beyond the earliest primary contests in Iowa and New Hampshire.

If the emails are released on February 29th instead, it would be a day before the Super Tuesday primaries.

"It's clear that the State Department's delay is all about ensuring any further damaging developments in Hillary Clinton's email scandal are revealed only after the votes are counted in the early nominating states," RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said on Friday when the request was made. 

Priebus complained further: "The American people should be outraged at the Obama administration's gamesmanship to protect someone who recklessly exposed classified information on more than 1,300 occasions, including highly sensitive Top Secret intelligence."

Mark Toner a State Department mouthpiece said that State can't meet its court-mandated goal of Jan. 29th because there are 9,400 remaining pages that "contain a large amount of material that require interagency review." He added, "The remaining emails are also the most complex to process."

The agency will make public as many as possible by next week, according to Toner, and mentally flipped the bird to Priebus, who complained.
