The Clintons are so used to getting away with lies, coverups, corruption, and bribery that maybe they start to actually believe their own stories.
Is Hillary so self deluded that she believes her own BS. Did she really think no one would notice?

| No no... you missed Wolfson's conference call. Hillary "misspoke", you see. (What she meant to say is an open question -- maybe "diaper fire"? "Sniper pyre"? "Wiper mire"? The mind boggles.) |

| This reminds me of that part in the movie "Anger Management" when this character was talking to Adam Sandler and said to him "I've seen some sh*t! I kid you not!". And then Adam Sandler says "Vietnam?". The guy says "Grenada". And then Adam Sandler says "But, didn't that last like 30 minutes or something?" Immediately the other guy gets in a fight to draw Adam Sandler in it and change the subject. |

Man, I really used to like the Clintons, even with their middle right tendencies I still considered them acceptable Dems. Damn, people will always let you down.
And where's all the outrage over her BS? Even the "liberals" on MSNBC are still playing the Wright line over and over, but no mention of this. Thanks for the post. |

Actually it has gotten a fair amount of play, and I was extremely gratified, when flipping through the Sunday talk shows, to see that the topic du jour was "Can Hillary win?"
Now if we can just get the &*^#%*& media to pay attention to John McCain's various "senior moments"... |

Hillary Clinton is filthier than Monica Lewdinsky.
8 years of Bill Clinton as President is enough! I am glad Mrs. Bill Clinton is losing and Bill won't be President again. |

And there was this story:
| Quote: |
GREENSBURG, Pa. (AP) - Hillary Rodham Clinton said Tuesday she made a mistake in claiming that she came under hostile fire in Bosnia 12 years ago, as rival Barack Obama's campaign continued to challenge her credibility.
In a recent speech and interviews, the New York senator described a harrowing scene in Tuzla, Bosnia, in which she and her daughter, Chelsea, had to run for cover as soon as they landed for a visit in But video footage of the day showed a peaceful reception in which a young girl greeted the first lady on the tarmac.
Clinton told reporters in Pennsylvania on Tuesday that she erred in describing the scene, which she now realizes after talking with aides and others.
"So I made a mistake," she said. "That happens. It proves I'm human, which you know, for some people, is a revelation."
The more important issue, she said, is whether she would be a better commander in chief than Obama or Republican presidential candidate John McCain. Clinton and Obama are competing for votes in Pennsylvania's April 22 primary.
Clinton's aides had tried to control the Bosnia flap Monday, saying the New York senator "misspoke."
But Clinton had to address the issue herself Tuesday, after repeated airings of the 1996 video clips caused critics to ridicule her.
Reminded that she had said it was the first time she had misspoken in 12 years, Clinton told reporters: "I was joking. Lighten up, guys."
In a March 17 speech in Washington, Clinton said of the Bosnia trip: "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."
That account was still posted on her campaign Web site Tuesday.
Clinton told CNN last week, "There was no greeting ceremony, and we basically were told to run to our cars. Now, that is what happened."
Several news outlets disputed the claims.
Clinton began retracting the remarks in a series of private interviews Monday and Tuesday before addressing about two dozen reporters here after a speech.
She told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: "I was sleep-deprived, and I misspoke."
She told KDKA radio in Pittsburgh: "You know, I have written about this and described it in many different settings, and I did misspeak the other day. This has been a very long campaign."
The Obama campaign fueled the Bosnia brouhaha Tuesday, sponsoring a conference call with Pennsylvania reporters that featured retired Maj. Gen. Walter Stewart of the Pennsylvania Army National Guard. Stewart said he was assigned to the Army's European headquarters when Clinton visited Bosnia as first lady in 1996. He said her claim that she landed under enemy fire insulted U.S. soldiers charged with her security.
Clinton's explanation that she misspoke was "really astonishing," said Stewart, who supports Obama.
"She has no sense of what a statement like that does to soldiers," Stewart said. "She is insulting the command in its entirety."
"Believe me, heads would have rolled all over" if the military put the first lady and her daughter in a position of "unacceptable risk."
At her news conference, Clinton said, "the military and the Secret Service did a terrific job" of handling the situation in Bosnia. "We did take precautions," she said, noting that she was the first president's wife to enter a war zone since Eleanor Roosevelt... |
Such an immense act of contrition. Leading off with "so" is the give away. Like Slick Willy, what hurts them most is getting caught, not that they did it. They both are so power-hungry they can't see straight, much less talk straight.
As I predicted months ago, she would stoop lower and lower to get what she's after. But if she's not careful, she might also be sinking her chances of ever again being a viable candidate for this high office.
It's almost like a Shakespearian tragedy minus the eloquence.
But what I find audacious are her constant comparisons to Eleanor Roosevelt, a class act on all accounts that Hillary can't hold a candle to.
Time to retire Bill and Hill and take your butt buddies Ferraro and Carville with you to Martha's Vineyard with the rest of the la de dah libs of yore. |

Two points: First, Hillary is not Bill. This should be obvious enough, but the media sells them as a couple and most people have bought into it. They are, despite general opinion, two distinct individuals. To wit: she didn't get away with her lies. She covered it with a weak story; Bill would have laughed and started playing the sax, maybe gone on a stroll for a burger.
Second: you can't really blame her for thinking she could get away with it. Well, maybe you can, but re: Czarjorge's comment, I like the Clintons too, you have to realize it's a different playing field these days. Everybody knows now that lies win presidencies. The lies have gone 2-0 in recent years. If some aspect of your campaign isn't spit-polish perfect, just lie about it and you're a shoe-in. |

Oh wait, I'm sorry, this new film from the Hillary campaign shows what really happened...

...in Hillary's deranged view of reality that is. She could even be a Dave's poster! |
