Hillary Clinton and her advisers are livid that FBI Director James Comey let the word get out about a renewed investigation concerning her illegal use of private email servers while she was secretary of state. For obvious reasons, Clinton and her cronies had hoped her crimes would be overlooked by voters.
They should be kept firmly in mind, however, because of the scope of her offenses. We remind you they were understood months ago, when Comey announced the original FBI probe had been completed -- and would not result in Clinton being recommended for prosecution.
Some of Clinton's defenders have had the gall to defend her by insisting what she did "wasn't Watergate, after all."
No, it certainly was not. For those who do not remember the scandal that forced then-President Richard Nixon out of office, here is a refresher:
Nixon and many of his aides were caught using tactics such as breaking into the Democrats' national headquarters to influence elections. It also was revealed they disrupted some Democrat rallies -- as have Clinton cronies.
But never was it alleged that Nixon endangered Americans by putting national secrets at risk.
Clinton did.
