He would prefer not to

It has been frustrating to watch the chummy and inept questions directed to Hillary Clinton by mainstream media types such as Chuck Todd and Lester Holt regarding the unsecured private email server Hillary Clinton used for official State Department business. At yesterday’s State Department briefing, Catherine Herridge sought to pierce the fog emitted by the Clinton campaign through a few questions to State Department spokesman John Kirby. Herridge shows how it’s done as Kirby declines to answer. I think he declines to answer on the ground that he cannot do so truthfully without consignment to outer darkness by the Obama administration. It is perfectly appropriate to draw adverse inferences from Kirby’s refusal to comment. Indeed, you’d be a fool not to.
