Hillary Clinton's spokesman admits an account Clinton gave of her trip to Bosnia doesn't square with the evidence.
  • She Lied

    A misstatement is when you mistakenly or unintentionally say something that you do not intend. Saying Cleveland, Iowa, instead of Cleveland, Ohio, would be a misstatement. Calling someone by the wrong name would be a misstatement, if you actually knew their right name and jsut had a brain fart or something.

    A whole paragraph on a fictional account of a trip to Bosnia is not a misstatement. The words were written, thought out, and completely intentional. And they were not true. Not in the slightest.

    She intended every word of that story. She intended the whole account, and not a word of it was true, and she knew it. Her recount of her trip is so ridiculous that it cannot be possible that she misremembered the trip either. I think its pretty clear she, knowingly and willfully, lied.

    I think everyone sees this clearly. Nobody believes different. Which is why folks like locait are not saying a single word trying to defend Clinton here. Because not even the most delusional shill could possibly come up with an argument saying she didn't lie. Which is why the rebut has been to attack Obama, who is not actually at issue here.

    It's the same thing my Dad does when I argue with him about politics. Criticize Bush about Katrina, and he'll come back with how much John Kerry annoys him. Which has nothing to do with Katrina. He's done this for years.

    Don't go down this road folks. Obama is not at issue here. Clinton is. This is all about Clinton lying, not about anything Obama has said or done. Try to defend what Clinton said locait, or try to dismiss it. Otherwise I think everyone should just go ahead and ignore you.
