In about 47 states yes. A small handful ban political discrimination, and it's mostly liberal ones that do. Joementum posted:Paul Ryan seems to think July 4th was when a battle happened. We won the Civil War on July 4th, 1863 - that was the day that Grant took Vicksburg, the last holdout fort on the Mississippi, and the day that Lee retreated from Gettysburg. It took about a year and a half for the South to give up, but they lost it then.

Side note: General Betrayus is the name of the villain in the Pac man cartoon Z which is somehow worse than that one Battletoads cartoon from the nineties, and my three year old unfortunately loves it.

Reminder, the reason they went after Petraeus wasn't because he gave classified information to his mistress -- that was the stated reason of course -- but it was because he lied to investigators.

Not true in all cases. According to Comey some of the data that was classified at the time of sending was not owned by the State Department, so whatever the State Department felt it should be classified as is irrelevant.

That's a long-running inter-agency debate -- more aptly pointed out when he talked about how things weren't tagged correctly which is more or less the FBI taking a shot a state's well known laissez-faire attitude towards the FBI and DoD's equally well-known proclivity towards over-classification.
