Lies, Damn Lies, and Mispeakings

www.rollingstone.com

The Hillary camp is now saying that the candidate simply mispoke in concocting an elaborately detailed Bosnian war story of sniper fire and corkscrew maneuvers and running, heads down to armored vehicles.

Balderdash.

Hillary is a habitual teller of tall tales. She’s far worse than Al Gore ever was.

The Clinton's have been known for "not recalling things" and dabbling in questionable if not criminal activities, but Hillary, one of the Democratic Parties nominees is an outright liar, trying to make herself more electable, OR, maybe just a story teller, you can decide.

Back on the the 17th of March, Hillary was speaking at the George Washingon University and was quoted as saying,

(from the first source in "Additional News Links")

I certainly do remember that trip to Bosnia, and as Togo said, there was a saying around the White House that if a place was too small, too poor, or too dangerous, the president couldn't go, so send the First Lady. That’s where we went.

I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base. But it was a moment of great pride for me to visit our troops,

She also wrote in her book describing the scene in Bosnia!

BUT, under further pressure to find out what ACTUALLY happened to the then First Lady, we get this reply,

(From the second source in "Additional News Links")

The Clinton campaign says Senator Hillary Clinton may have “misspoke” recently when she said she had to evade sniper fire when she was visiting Bosnia in 1996 as first lady.

She has been using the episode as an example of her foreign policy bona fides.

MISSPOKE?... MISSPOKE???.... usually you KNOW when when somebody is or isn't shooting at you!

How do you misspeak when you write something in a book or use it as an example of your "prowess" in foreign affairs?

No, what she was doing was, what we ordinary folk call, is "LYING!

She is not afraid to lie to us, to tell us blatant lies while campaigning to become president, and she will still be lying to the people if she ever does become elected president, in my opinion.

Thank goodness it doesn't look like she'll get the chance.

One thing I'll always remember, YOU CAN NEVER TRUST A LIAR OR A THIEF!

You realize you are critiquing her about a story she told?

Who friggin cares?

OMG DID HILLARY REALLY GET SHOTZ AT??!?!?!

It doesn't matter. Question her politics, not her stories. You're buying into the typical media garbage.

You can never trust a liar, so WHY would anybody want to put a liar in office as the US president?

This isn't the ONLY lie she has ever been caught in.

We already have been thru 8 years of, if not a liar, a very deceitful president, the last thing this country should even consider is electing another person as president who is anything but a totally honest person in every aspect of their life.

With her and Bill's past, Whitewater, cattle futures, (and maybe even the death of Vince Foster), why even bother looking at her political ideals or even consider her as the future US president?

I wouldn't trust her as far as I could throw her!

It was a story, (read lie), she told to an audience to bolster their opinion of her "Foreign Affairs" experience.

She was blatantly lying to an audience about her past to try to get them to vote for her. These are the American people that she wants to become president for that she is ALREADY starting to tell lies to!

It's not about if she was shot at or not, but her LYING about it that is so troubling!

ANOTHER LIE from the woman who wants to be our illustrious leader!

Ohio Hospital Contests a Story Clinton Tells

Over the last five weeks, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York has featured in her campaign stump speeches the story of a health care horror: an uninsured pregnant woman who lost her baby and died herself after being denied care by an Ohio hospital because she could not come up with a $100 fee.

The woman, Trina Bachtel, did die last August, two weeks after her baby boy was stillborn at O’Bleness Memorial Hospital in Athens, Ohio. But hospital administrators said Friday that Ms. Bachtel was under the care of an obstetrics practice affiliated with the hospital, that she was never refused treatment and that she was, in fact, insured.

“We implore the Clinton campaign to immediately desist from repeating this STORY,” said Rick Castrop, chief executive officer of the O’Bleness Health System.

"Lies, Damn Lies," and they just don't stop!

The last thing this country needs is another lying deceitful person as President!
