MORE HILDEBEAST NEWS…

Yesterday I piled on to Hillary Clinton for her “lies” concerning her trip to Bosnia wherein she had claimed various times that she landed amidst sniper fire.
It was a bald-faced lie and many in the LameStream Media have been aware of this …

Saw this last night. It’s about time somebody calls it like it is. She LIED, not missremembered, misspoke, imbellished or misstook. She LIED. Col. Hunt always has a way of cutting to the chase and has never fraised his wording politically correct.
Under Davis’ reasoning, because the police in my neighborhood are armed with handguns, every time I walk my dog I do it underfire. Just like Hillary.

I imagine the birds quit chirping when she’s around.

No, actually, Col. Hunt showed his face and the birds were all at rigid attention.

How did Lanny Davis spin this story?

PappaMac on March 26, 2008 at 9:43 AM

Well for one he tried comparing/equating Hillary’s outright lie to McCain’s mixup of Iran and Syria. When that didn’t work he pulled the ridiculous quote from the paper which got shot down. After that he just whined…

Seinfeld’s George Costanza famously quipped: “It’s not a lie if you believe it.”

The Hildabeast very proudly told people her lie on several occasions. What kind of mother takes her 15-yr old daughter to a war zone without the protection of kevlar helmet and flak vest? According to the beast, she did so, and proudly.

Col. Hunt was there and knows first hand that Hillery was lying. Lanny Davis tries to to equate saying the wrong thing accidentally with purposely making things up to inflate your story. Typical Clinton hack.

ABCNews Shock: “Bosnia Story May Fuel Perception of Dishonesty” …

All’s fair in love and fake sniper fire…

It seems like it has been all Obama, all the time, so I thought I would give Hillary a little attention. She finally decided to give her take on the Rev. Wright fiasco and accidentally I suppose it just happened…

I fear this glorious story is near an end

If the Tuzla story’s done, the takeaway should be BillO’s dumbassitude. Davis quoted a news report that confirmed Hunt’s point. BillO ignored that fact.

When I was a small boy, my mother gave me a piece of advice. Never strive to be untruthful. In order to be a successful liar you have to have a tremendous memory. Obviously Mrs. Clinton’s mother never gave her that little tidbit of advice.

Davis was doing more than disagreeing, he was essentially calling Hunt a liar.

Last night I shouted at my TV for the first time in months. It was mildly cathartic.

What I shouted isn’t fit to repeat in whole, but it involved, in part, the horse Davis rode in on.

Another crazy thing about Lanny Davis is that he’s still trying to paint the story the way Hillary first described it, after she herself has recanted.

I always thought he seemed like a decent guy, but he came across terribly on this one.

Lanny Davis is a shining example of the type of legendary quality jerks the Clintons have surrounded themselves with. The guy is a moron to the extent that he will go on Fox News and argue with an Army Colonel who was there on the ground in Tuzla the day Shillary was there, saying with a perfectly straight face that sniper fire was all over the place, when the Colonel said that there was no sniper fire that day. As said the comedian Sinbad who was also there. As said the CBS reporter who was there on the scene travelling with Shillary. Yet despite all this, Davis kept arguing that everyone who was there that day was mistaken and Shillary is telling the truth. Davis is an even bigger moron than that, because he then went on CNN and got into an argument with Times columnist Joe Klein on the exact same thing! This is why Shillary is losing credibility and it’s also why she is going to lose this campaign. She surrounds herself with what amounts to a confederacy of dunces!

But why, with the public forum that he has had in the media the last few years, has he kept his mouth shut about this incident, instead of telling the truth long ago?????

JBrad on March 26, 2008 at 10:33 AM

It wasn’t an “incident” until Hillary lied about it during a Presidential campaign. Before that it was a successful and uneventful visit by a First Lady.

Why should he be talking about this or any of the hundreds of other successful visits by VIPs?

I wish someone would find that little Bosnian girl and get her version. She must be in her in her late teens, or early 20s by now? Plus, I’m sure the MSM would ask her who she would vote in our presidential election (like they are with Iraqis).

Now that the truth has come out in the open, for whatever reason, Col Hunt joins in as the know all, of I was there,
(Don’t get me wrong – I like the guy). But why, with the public forum that he has had in the media the last few years, has he kept his mouth shut about this incident, instead of telling the truth long ago?????

Yeah, Lanny quoted ONE single newspaper article. He must be a major stockholder in the Maytag washing machine company.

BTW, if you’ve never had the chance, you should listen to him do radio filling in for Howie Carr. The guy is a hoot.

JammieWearingFool on March 26, 2008 at 9:43 AM

I think Col. Hunt is from Maine. He fills in for Howie quite a bit, and also does book-signing appearances with him on occasion (for Howie’s book about Boston gangster Whitey Bulger)
