HILLARY CLINTON: CONGENTIAL LIAR THEN (1996) AND MORE SO NOW (2013) !!!!!!!

Essay;Blizzard of Lies

Americans of all political persuasions are coming to the sad realization that our First Lady -- a woman of undoubted talents who was a role model for many in her generation -- is a congenital liar.

Drip by drip, like Whitewater torture, the case is being made that she is compelled to mislead, and to ensnare her subordinates and friends in a web of deceit.



1. Remember the story she told about studying The Wall Street Journal to explain her 10,000 percent profit in 1979 commodity trading? We now know that was a lie told to turn aside accusations that as the Governor's wife she profited corruptly, her account being run by a lawyer for state poultry interests through a disreputable broker.

She lied for good reason: To admit otherwise would be to confess taking, and paying taxes on, what some think amounted to a $100,000 bribe.

2. The abuse of Presidential power known as Travelgate elicited another series of lies. She induced a White House lawyer to assert flatly to investigators that Mrs. Clinton did not order the firing of White House travel aides, who were then harassed by the F.B.I. and Justice Department to justify patronage replacement by Mrs. Clinton's cronies.

Now we know, from a memo long concealed from investigators, that there would be "hell to pay" if the furious First Lady's desires were scorned. The career of the lawyer who transmitted Hillary's lie to authorities is now in jeopardy. Again, she lied with good reason: to avoid being identified as a vindictive political power player who used the F.B.I. to ruin the lives of people standing in the way of juicy patronage.

3. In the aftermath of the apparent suicide of her former partner and closest confidant, White House Deputy Counsel Vincent Foster, she ordered the overturn of an agreement to allow the Justice Department to examine the files in the dead man's office. Her closest friends and aides, under oath, have been blatantly disremembering this likely obstruction of justice, and may have to pay for supporting Hillary's lie with jail terms.

Again, the lying was not irrational. Investigators believe that damning records from the Rose Law Firm, wrongfully kept in Vincent Foster's White House office, were spirited out in the dead of night and hidden from the law for two years -- in Hillary's closet, in Web Hubbell's basement before his felony conviction, in the President's secretary's personal files -- before some were forced out last week.

Why the White House concealment? For good reason: The records show Hillary Clinton was lying when she denied actively representing a criminal enterprise known as the Madison S.& L., and indicate she may have conspired with Web Hubbell's father-in-law to make a sham land deal that cost taxpayers $3 million.

Why the belated release of some of the incriminating evidence? Not because it mysteriously turned up in offices previously searched. Certainly not because Hillary Clinton and her new hang-tough White House counsel want to respond fully to lawful subpoenas.

One reason for the Friday-night dribble of evidence from the White House is the discovery by the F.B.I. of copies of some of those records elsewhere. When Clinton witnesses are asked about specific items in "lost" records -- which investigators have -- the White House "finds" its copy and releases it. By concealing the Madison billing records two days beyond the statute of limitations, Hillary evaded a civil suit by bamboozled bank regulators.

Another reason for recent revelations is the imminent turning of former aides and partners of Hillary against her; they were willing to cover her lying when it advanced their careers, but are inclined to listen to their own lawyers when faced with perjury indictments.

Therefore, ask not "Why didn't she just come clean at the beginning?" She had good reasons to lie; she is in the longtime habit of lying; and she has never been called to account for lying herself or in suborning lying in her aides and friends.

No wonder the President is fearful of holding a prime-time press conference. Having been separately deposed by the independent counsel at least twice, the President and First Lady would be well advised to retain separate defense counsel.

Some dogs just never change their spots !!!!!!!!!

[Whirlaway]

Speaks volumes about her supporters.............

[Whirlaway]

BTW; Safire considered himself to be a Conservative Libertarian.....his phones were tapped under the Nixon administration.....He was on the Pulitzer Board.......he won a Pulitzer......he voted for Clinton in 1992...but even Safire had enough of the Clinton lies and scandals.................

[CJ7]

btw who fucking cares about 92'

the Wicked Beast Hildawitch will be the next potus, and theres nothing you or the GOP can do or say to stop her.

enjoy your smear campaign for the next 3 years, you have 8 more after that !

WOOO HOOO !

[Whirlaway]

History repeats itself but you don't care.

Hillary was a congenital liar then and she will be as President.........but you are ok with that....

No wonder America's future is bleak...........and you celebrate.

[CJ7]

people like you are the rights worst enemy, nothing personal, just a fact in the political arena

[Whirlaway]

I take comfort in you speaking/thinking for what represents the best/worse interest of the political right......................... ...

BTW CBJ, didn't you get the email, you are suppose to boycott my threads !

[CJ7]

Im not speaking/thinking for what represents the best/worse interest of the political right. The facts speak for themselves These low information voters you keep bringing up represent winning or losing an election and IMO are offended at the label the right has given them. Apparently they are informed enough to know the right could care less about them having to work 4 jobs to keep a roof over their kids heads, and are more interested in how many lies an outgoing potus has told.

nope, I didn't get the email ... like I would have paid any attention to it anyway

[Jackie S]

I agree that the odds favor Hillary being the next POTUS. She is Mrs Bill Clinton, he can't run again, so there are enough people who will think that they will in fact be getting Bill Clinton again. Heck, that is good for 40 percentage points right there.

My favorite "lie" that she came up with was the "I was named after Sir Edmund Hillary". Sometime back, she finally admitted that it was a fabrication she sort of made up on the spot when she was on a trip to Nepal.

I think Her lying is borderline pathological. But in the end, nobody will give a shit, because she is Mrs Bill Clinton.

[CJ7]

she'll suck the womens vote dry just because the women want a 1st woman president

Well, I think that is probably true. Even the damn few bright spots in the Republican party are dimming rapidly. And we've already seen that ignorant bastards way outnumber informed voters, so Hillary is a shoo-in.

[Yssup Rider]

So are you asserting that Hillary Rodham Clinton, most likely the next President of the United State, was a LIAR FROM BIRTH? That means she was born lying ... even before she could speak.

Or do you need English lessons, Whineaway?

I think it's the latter, but an answer would be appreciated, ignoramus!

They too uninformed to realize the left doesn't give a fuck about them either.

[JD Barleycorn]

CJ, and those like him, only care about winning. They don't care about good governance or honesty. They will accept a liar, an unAmerican piece of shit, a tyrant as long as they can say to the themselves, "I won".



CJ and a friend or two waiting for the slaughter.
