Why be upset over hacking

It appears as though almost every department of this administration has been hacked. It seems to me that the American people should be outraged at the incompetence of this administration more than the hacking
Can anybody tell me one department of the federal government that is competent?? If they are that incompetent how can we believe it when they say that Putin himself ordered the hacking of the DNC.
One thing nobody asked Julian Assange is did he pay for the information about the DNC.
Why was Seth Rich killed? We will never know because I don't think they are trying t o find out. Isn't this the obvious scource?

The Washington Post reported in 2010 that there were 1,271 government organizations and 1,931 private companies in 10,000 locations in the United States that are working on counterterrorism, homeland security, and intelligence, and that the intelligence community as a whole includes 854,000 people holding top-secret clearances.[2] According to a 2008 study by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, private contractors make up 29% of the workforce in the U.S. intelligence community and account for 49% of their personnel budgets.[3]
No way in hell can that many people keep a secret. Think there might be a leek?? DUH.

    Exactly.

    Podesta's password was "password," if what has been reported is true.

    Hillary's Security?? What a joke.

    DNC?? Another joke.

    "17 different Intelligence agencies??"

    Are you kidding me?? Is that level of overlapping necessary?? You will have a hard time convincing me of that.

    The Obama Legacy: Over 1,000 Democratic Seats Lost to Republicans
    Jim Hoft Nov 4th, 2015 In May 2009, after the historic Democratic victories in the 2008 election that saw Democrats win the presidency, the House and a super majority in the Senate, liberal strategist James Carville argued that Democrats could dominate politics for the next four decades.

    But that was in 2009.
    Since then Obama has destroyed public morale and trust in government with his radical Progressive agenda and anti-American foreign policy.
    In 2010 Democrats lost the House to Republicans.
    In 2014 Democrats lost the Senate to Republicans.
    Since Obama took office Democrats have lost:
    ** 14 Senate seats
    ** 69 House seats
    ** 12 governorships
    ** 910 state legislature seats
    That's over 1,000 seats lost!
    Nice job, Barack.

    So now the Russians did hack ?

    Will wonders never cease.

    Now, for blaming the victims, instead of dealing with the perpetrators.

    Oh, yeah, the cops were at fault as well, for not effectively policing.

    Or eating too many donuts.

    you sir are a wonder that never seems to cease [:0]

    It wouldn't be hard to believe the Russians hacked the DNC. Heck everybody else probably did also. So--now we are to believe Trump is a Russian agent HUH? And Regan was going to start a nuclear war. Who ever hacked the Government and the DNC is guilty of exposing the TRUTH? Dear Lord we can't have that sort of thing going on. Can we barz??
    THE TRUTH IS TREASON IN THE EMPIRE OF LIES. So true.

    What I blame the "victims" for Barzillia, is their complete and utter lack of Cyber Security.

    To such an extent that our SOS (Hillary) went so far as to set up her own "Private Server," all in order to have "control" over its release or oversight.

    Give me a break Brother. You do not believe these idiots brought about their own downfall??

    I suppose not.

    It is immaterial what the DNC did, or did not do, when we are examining the facts of whether cyber warfare was being conducted by the Russians, or not.

    You apparently now agree that the US intelligence reports were accurate in that matter ?

    Trump reportedly does.

    If you are wanting to discuss what the DNC did or did not do, and argue with me, then you will find a hard time in doing so.

    But they did not ask the Russians to do so, or encourage them during the campaign.

    There are plenty of "willing idiots" awards in this mess to go around.


    I agree. "Plenty of willing Idiots to go around."

    So Barzillia, do you not believe that the good Ol' USA does not do the same thing at every opportunity itself, given the chance??

    Hell, I remember a year or two ago, that there was a big stink about Angela Merkle's cell phone being "hacked," by us.

    Its a big World. If you are not going to go out of your way to protect yourself, no one else will do it for you either.

    You get what you get.

    Embarrassing facts?? Too bad, so sad

    IF the Russians contributed to HRC's NOT becoming the POTUS they should be thanked! Hell rewarded.

    The Russians and Chinese among others have been hacking every thing from the Pentagon and the DNC, to Yahoo and Paypal.

    This time it matters more because according to the Hacked it caused the voters to be aware of the lies, deceit and general disregard for law and order of the politicians.

    Tough Chit.

    Now as far as the hacking goes, we need smarter IT people who can either fry the hackers equipment and/or back door install damaging software, or improve our security so that it simply can't be hacked.

    Calling out the hackers as responsible for the election results is also like saying the hackers were only hacking financial info during Obama's years and not during Bush or eventually Trump's terms.

    Were hackers responsible for Obama's wins too?

    'Cyber warfare' is ongoing 24/7/365. It is conducted against us by the Russians, the Chinese, Iran, along with every other enemy we have. It is also conducted by most, if not all, nations we consider friendly. We certainly are always involved in doing the same to every other nation on the globe as well.

    What I stated above is a fact,...a fact that makes the utter stupidity of the DNC a 'material' event. To leave yourself so open through a lack of even basic security, when one KNOWS what is constantly being attempted by foreign governments, as well as domestic opponents, shows idiocy above and beyond the call of duty.

    They share in the blame for what occurred, just as I would should I have my car stolen in a bad neighborhood, while it is left idling with the keys in it. Everyone knows the kind of world we live in,....well not everyone I guess. Thanks for being dumb as a rock you liberal dolts, and be sure to keep it up![:)]

    While having this discussion, it is wise to recall what was learned from the 'hacking', whoever may or may not have done it.

    1) The media is in cahoots with the demorats.
    2) There was infighting and backstabbing inside a political organization.
    3) The demorats wanted Hillary, not Bernie.

    Did I miss anything? I mean, it was fun to see the little pantload from Politico submitting his article to the Ds for review. And a hoot to see Donna Brazille and Debbie Wassaman Schultz exposed for the scummy bottomfeeders we knew them to be.

    But other than those few things, what exactly of any real consequence was revealed? What major news flash did we see? We still don't know if Podesra has lower eyelids. We don't know between Hillary and Huma which one is da husband and who is da wife.

    Obama says they 'Russian hacking' was known about in August. Why wasn't it an issue to be dealt with until Hillary lost?

    For a government bureaucrat.

    You do not know who the perps were..... Either does Podesta.

    You seem incapable of seeing the utter STUPIDITY of Podesta and his willful, arrogance in having "PASSWORD" as a PASSWORD on anything except a hunting camp toilet...

    Podesta's email was hacked; it happens every day to millions. If your stuff is important and secret you better leave it off the public domain part of the internet and have a password safer than this meat head did.
