Why can't she STOP LYING?! Hillary caught telling a whopper on her Scooby-tour
2015-04-16
[The Right Scoop] I'm beginning to think Hillary is a compulsive liar. Today she was caught telling a lie about her family and their immigrant status, just so that she can reach out to pro-illegal alien advocates.
As clearly evidenced by the current occupant of the WH, it's a perfect segway to power.
Speaking in Iowa Wednesday, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said that all her grandparents had immigrated to the United States, a story that conflicts with public census and other records related to her maternal and paternal grandparents.

The story of her grandmother specifically immigrating is one Clinton has told before. Clinton's sole foreign-born grandparent, Hugh Rodham Sr., immigrated as a child.

"Her grandparents always spoke about the immigrant experience and, as a result she has always thought of them as immigrants," a Clinton spokesman told BuzzFeed News. "As has been correctly pointed out, while her grandfather was an immigrant, it appears that Hillary's grandmother was born shortly after her parents and siblings arrived in the U.S. in the early 1880s."

The now-retired general counsel and chief of staff of the House Judiciary Committee Jerry Zeifman: [Watergate Investigation, 1970's - Why she was fired] "Because she was a liar,” Zeifman said in an interview last week. “She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.”

#14  She lies because it works. Only a fraction of the people that heard the story saw the correction. Those that did and liked her will make excuses.

I think the right should stop calling her a liar (people expect politicians to lie) and start insinuating dementia and serious memory troubles.

#13  Lying is a requirement to be a registered Demonrat. Probably we will find it is in their DNA.

#7  Stick with what works. Imagine a Hillary who only told the truth -- fat, 6 kids each with a different father and behind on the mortgage for her trailer.

#6  Why can't she stop? You ever hear about the story about the dog and the scorpion?

#5  "Her grandparents always spoke about the immigrant experience and, as a result she has always thought of them as immigrants,"

While she was little, I told my daughter many stories about how I grew up in a cave, how her grandfather was almost single-handedly responsible for killing all the saber-toothed tigers in North America, how all the roads and buildings were put in shortly before she was born, how we didn't have baths, and all kinds of other good stuff.

After she figured out I may have been stretching the truth a bit, she discarded all that.

Why can't Hillary?

#4  Well hell, you can now choose your gender and you can make up your own language (see Mx, Xer, etc.) so of course you can make up your own history.

All of life is a construct, nothing is real or unchangeable.

Welcome to the Post Modern world.

#3  I've come to the conclusion that these people lie to you as a demonstration of power. "Here, I'll tell you some impossible transparently BS, and you'll nod your head and go along so I don't yell at you."
It has become apparent that she'd rather lie, even when it would be easier to tell the truth.

#2  I think all lefties have this problem. See, history isn't about facts to them, so it's not set in stone as it were. It's more like snot. And snot is to be flung wherever it's needed to serve their purpose.

If a perfect lie detector is developed, all politicians and government officials should be fitted with explosive collars that go off when they lie. Sure, the detonation rate will be high, but it's the life they chose.
