Hillary's Bosnia lie
Tuesday March 25, 2008
Categories: Democrats
The only thing truthful about Hillary Clinton's recent account of her trip to Tuzla as First Lady is that she went there. The Clintons still have the capacity to astonish by how easily they lie. I suppose it's possible she...

This is so unlike the Clinton's to lie for political gain. Of course it all depends on what the meaning of "is" is. But anyway . . .
Rod,
Thank you for posting this. I'm disturbed by how easily the Clintons mis-remember events. I'm thankful that there are many that have seen the truth.

The interesting thing about this whole story is that, in Hillary's version, we're supposed to believe that Bill Clinton said, "So, it's really dangerous there and I could get shot? Well, ok then, send Hillary instead."
Hmm... maybe not that unbelievable, but would he send Chelsea too?
I'm shocked that CBS would report this event. What have the Clintons done to honk off the brass at that network? Something tells me this story could be payback.
It was an honest mistake. The Bosnians greeted her with the traditional exploding roses and she thought the sound was gunfire.
How could Jesus lie like this?
(If Richardson is a "Judas," that makes Hillary "Jesus.")
Sigh. Either McCain or my sofa in November.
(If Richardson is a "Judas," that makes Hillary "Jesus.")
With Bill Clinton as Mary Magdelene.
There is no good way out of this lie for Hillary! because every possibility or excuse raises a host of other questions. For instance, in the impossible event that Hillary! were anywhere close to the truth, what kind of mother drags her 15-year-old daughter into a combat zone, where the child has to duck Serb bullets and run for her life?
Honest to God, the woman is a real-life Tommy Flanagan in drag.
To my grave disappointment, Hillary and her disbarred hubby have been lying with less and less style as their campaign slips into panic.
I once wrote :
In my lifetime I've had the privilege of watching Magic Johnson and Larry Bird and Michael Jordan play basketball, Wayne Gretzky play hockey, Muhammed Ali box, Tom Seaver pitch, Tiger Woods golf.
And I've heard the Clintons lie.
Greatness comes in many forms.
I guess, like aging boxers who stay in the ring after their skills are gone, the Clintons are sliding into pugsville.
It's so sad.

The Celebrity Deathmatch of Barack Obama vs. Hillary Clinton will be ... interesting to watch.
(Pass the popcorn!)
Well, to quote somebody-or-other:
"Vote for the crook. It's important."
