Video: Shameless liar’s shameless NAFTA lie exposed

The beauty of the Tuzla story lies not in catching her in a shameless lie but in the fact that it opens up everything else she’s ever said to re-examination. Here’s another lie we already sort of knew about but had forgotten, for the simple reason that there are too many to keep track of anymore. Just as the human brain can only handle nine-digit phone numbers, so too America’s collective imagination can only juggle five or six egregious Hillary fabrications at a time. Right now, offhand, I can recall the Edmund Hillary lie, the Yankees/Cubs vacillation, the “I almost joined the Marines” tall tale, the bogus southern accent, and of course Tuzla. But beyond that? Total blank. How much mendacity has spilled over the sides of the gallon-jug that is my mind and into oblivion? You’ve overwhelmed us, Hillary.

Shouldn’t we be saving this stuff for the general election?
Darth Executor on March 26, 2008 at 9:35 PM
What for? She’s done.
Allahpundit on March 26, 2008 at 9:36 PM
Did she quit and I didn’t notice (I admit it’s possible, but unlikely, I haven’t been paying attention to politics for the last couple of days)? Because she could always win at the convention.
Darth Executor on March 26, 2008 at 9:38 PM
I remember the “we were going to adopt a child” one.
Maybe not a lie, but it sure sounded to me like it.
Would the child met the same fate as Sox, or Buddy?
(That was crappy, I apologize)
Out of all of them, that one bugs me the most.
cozmo on March 26, 2008 at 9:39 PM
Awesome.
(Also, David Gergen is a tool.)

Ross Perot on NAFTA was a man worth a million quotes

Well written, Michelle, as always.
I just can’t help to wonder how this country, possibly the world, would have been different if some of these canards by both BillyJeff and Hillary Clinton, were exposed to the point they are now, and not swallowed whole by the MSM back then?

A handy dandy one for the overhelmed, AP. Print and hang it on your wall.
Dusty on March 26, 2008 at 9:48 PM
She is not done. Repubs are too easy to fall into the trap that this “chaos” has all the negatives we think it does, and will have all the legs regarding longevity once a candidate is chosen.
Hillary has absolutely no experience, nor intelligence at anything……but guerilla cut-throat politics. In that, there is no peer. She will win at all costs, pay atonement to all aggrieved parties, and then we will stand around and wonder at all the predictions of the demise of the dems in Denver. With their money raised relative to the Maverick, he will then find out how friendly and honorable his opponent will be. I predict her today show retort to Rush, “be careful what you wish for” will come true.
Of course, I will happily pay due penance if wrong about all of the above…..
Starlink on March 26, 2008 at 9:50 PM
It’s not over till it’s over. She will do anything to sit behind the desk in the Oval Office. The Clintons are never more dangerous than when they’re done.
Oldnuke on March 26, 2008 at 9:53 PM
And then of course there is our own Republican choice for President to behold.
Well written, Michelle, as always.
MB4 on March 26, 2008 at 9:54 PM
For what it’s worth Allah I hope you’re right and we just need to stick a fork in her.
Oldnuke on March 26, 2008 at 9:54 PM
What for? She’s done.
Allahpundit on March 26, 2008 at 9:36 PM
You couldn’t be more right and wrong. She’ll never win the nomination at this point, but just ask John Kerry about the possibility of her swallowing her pride and supporting Obama.
THE CHOSEN ONE on March 26, 2008 at 9:57 PM
We are in agreement, Michelle writes well.
Seven Percent Solution on March 26, 2008 at 9:58 PM
Come on AP. Despite what you may beleive, she is only human.
chief on March 26, 2008 at 9:58 PM
She might be hanging on by her fingernails, but they can still claw at plenty of throats before she falls.
Jim Treacher on March 26, 2008 at 9:59 PM
Either way she’s done. If she loses the nom, she goes home. If she wins at the convention, with the only method available being superdelegates, 1968 will look like a picnic.
amerpundit on March 26, 2008 at 10:01 PM

I usually respect fellow republicans and their dissent, however you are a RACIST. Almost every post you make here at Hotair has something to do with immigration including this thread about NAFTA. Next, you’ll go into a tirade about Juan Strawberries Plantation McGrouchy or something else. You very rarely comment on anything else of substance. I’m sorry you dislike Hispanics. I’m Irish and my relatives couldn’t find work or respect upon arrival either. Go ahead and vote for Nadar or Cynthia McCKinney this year, because your a hack who has no respect for a good man who knows a hell of a lot more about sacrifice than your sorry ass.

I’ve got a scoop for you folks concerning another Clinton lie. She said in a speech last year that she supported the Wilmot Proviso. But I’ve carefully researched the debates in the antebellum Congress and found that she didn’t utter one word about it.
radjah shelduck on March 26, 2008 at 10:04 PM

Another Hillary lie: She would leave her suburban Chicago home as a child on the weekends and walk to the Mexican migrant workers camps where she would babysit the children so that the older siblings could go to work with their parents..
JiangxiDad on March 26, 2008 at 10:11 PM
They have seen the divine aura of the Obamessiah and they fall at his feet for the sake of change, hope and salvation.

JiangxiDad on March 26, 2008 at 10:12 PM
I just don’t understand why they do this stuff…Al Gore was a champion of the stupid, easily proved lie too. It’s just pathological.
I still think Hillary is less dangerous for America than Obama.
funky chicken on March 26, 2008 at 10:15 PM
If she joins him she’ll have him killed just like she did with Vince Foster. She’ll do ANYTHING to sit in seat of the POTUS!
Personally I don’t trust any of them but I trust her the least of all!
Vntnrse on March 26, 2008 at 10:15 PM
I predicted this from day one… that woman skated into the Senate with nary a glance from the media. But running for President meant she’d have to own up to things in her past and finally answer some tough questions. Turns out she’ll answer those questions… but she’ll just lie when she does so. Big Surprise! Paging Bill Safire!!!
D2Boston on March 26, 2008 at 10:16 PM
AP, don’t forget about Hillary’s fears for Chelsea’s safety on 9/11 too. She was right there in the midst of the chaos …. er, 18 blocks away drinking coffee.
You’re right, there’s way too many now to keep track of all of them.

I’m not losing anything. My guy is gonna be Prez and my second choice will be Secretary of State. The name calling is coming from yourself with the Juan McShame gig you do every night. Hopefully he’ll name Mel Martinez VP, out of spite to the likes of yourself and every other “true conservative” who are afraid of Hispanics.
THE CHOSEN ONE on March 26, 2008 at 10:16 PM
Poor Hillary. She finally has proof of her experience, leading high level meetings, only it’s experience she’s trying to run away from.
But come on… this is supposed to hurt her with voters who believe “leadership is about action”? Who are they going to vote for… the “Don’t tell me words don’t matter” no paper-trail leaving, do-nothing Senator?
Spolitics on March 26, 2008 at 10:16 PM
BS…during the primaries you dissed all the other candidates and were far from respectfull
PS you are calling MM a racist, MB4 was just quoting the boss of this here moshpit
not smart
windansea on March 26, 2008 at 10:19 PM
I just don’t/can’t understand why you can’t say “I supported it when proposed/passed because I thought it would do good things for both the US and Mexico, but now I know NAFTA was a mistake and has hurt US workers and economy” or some such….why the bold-faced lie?
funky chicken on March 26, 2008 at 10:19 PM
Imagine a world where you have intelligence, your own clear thought process, a grasp of History, and take the time to understand what is going on around you?
Que es posible?
As I wrote, I think Michelle writes well. And as to the content of her writings, I actually agree with both her arguements.
I live in So Cal, esse, and my hommie was Hunter. Dude knows how to put up a fence, if you know what I mean.

Don’t you even read what you write?
BTW, did you realize that what I posted that set you off so much was written by Michelle Malkin?
MB4 on March 26, 2008 at 10:22 PM
Gee! I would suggest this be saved for the general election but it is becoming increasingly clear that pig-in-a-pantsuit won’t be around for the finals of “Political Idol.”
Let’s heap as much reality on the Clintons as possible now.

Dude. Are you playing the “anyone opposed to McCain’s immigration bill is a racist” organ? Please, leave that instrument to the Democrats.

You are really losing it now.
Do you even read what Michelle writes about the matter? It was what she wrote that I posted that seems to have set you off on your tantrum.
MB4 on March 26, 2008 at 10:28 PM
I make no predictions as far as the Dim’s go. They are amazing me daily. But this should show everyone in America where Clinton’s alliegence is, and that’s to Hillary RODHAM Clinton. Lying through teeth to gain credibility (hint Clinton campaign, the internet isn’t what it was when Slick Willy ran so you can’t count on the MSM to cover for you) and is willing to ignore the will of the voters as long as she get’s her crown.
Hog Wild on March 26, 2008 at 10:30 PM
Fair enough, I am not a big McCain supporter as well, kinda like having to eat a fish taco from a street vendor in Tijuana late in the afternoon on a hot summer day, that is surrounded by a cloud of flies, but you are starving, and there is nothing else to eat.
Yeah, that pretty much sums it up for me for having to vote for McCain, because the alternative is unthinkable.
Que lastima…….
Seven Percent Solution on March 26, 2008 at 10:31 PM
Hunter was already out of the race here in Socal, but he’s my Congressman, (he represents my district) and even though I knew it was a “wasted” vote, I caste my ballot for him because I KNOW that he’s the best man for the job!

christophercube on March 26, 2008 at 10:33 PM
If you ever need proof of how corrupt the media is, your seeing it right here. As Ann Coulter said,
[A]s an honorary Republican, Hillary isn’t being swiftboated; she’s just lying. I’ve always wondered how a Democrat would fare being treated like a Republican by the media. Now we know…So the media suddenly notice when Hillary “misspeaks,” while rushing to make absurd excuses for much greater outrages by her opponent
TheBigOldDog on March 26, 2008 at 10:34 PM
Poor Hill. When you’ve got the LegTingler’s show gunning for you, yer done.
eeyore on March 26, 2008 at 10:36 PM
Holly Crap Hillary just laid out how she’s going to get the Florida and Michigan delegates seated on Greta. She’s going to make Obama oppose it at the Convention in a credentials fight. She said, “Let’s see him do that 3 months before the general election…ine way or another they are going to be seated.”
TheBigOldDog on March 26, 2008 at 10:36 PM
If the deep pocketed Dem donors are starting to put some major pressure on the superdelegates to go with the supposedly most electable rather than the winner in delegates and popular vote, things could swing back. Man, I hope it runs this way right through the summer. Why should she quit? Who knows what will happen with Barry. I do so want to see a floor fight at the convention.
a capella on March 26, 2008 at 10:39 PM
yikes…there goes the dream ticket I keep having this nasty feeling in the gut that they are going to look at the numbers and compromise somehow
windansea on March 26, 2008 at 10:41 PM
Sorry, I just can’t believe anything that comes out of David “Kermit” Shuster’s mouth. I like how he dropped her a life line at the end there, with the nuanced position of supporting her husband in getting it passed, but privately disapproving of it.
But wait… roll back the tape…
“I was one of the voices in the administration warning about NAFTA…”
What, did you warn Bill while he was sleeping on the sofa? Maybe David Gergen heard? Big whoop.
Seixon on March 26, 2008 at 10:42 PM
Oh, yeah, BAYYBEE! You go, girl. Barry would lose both states in the general for sure, and piss off a bunch of others.

Vigilante on March 26, 2008 at 10:45 PM
She’s going to be pulling this stuff till the nomination is a done deal. I remain unconvinced that she cannot be the nominee. As far as alienating the black voters, do you think she cares? If they’re not voting for her what use are they? She’ll destroy the party to get her shot. If she’ll do that to her own what do you think she’ll do to McCain?
Oldnuke on March 26, 2008 at 10:47 PM

One thing we’re getting to see now that we’ve never seen before. The MSM splitting into different camps, both Democrat, and both Dem candidates getting slashed to pieces. It’s gonna be bloody…and fun. The fallout from this race will last a long time.
Oldnuke on March 26, 2008 at 10:52 PM
If at any point she decides/is forced to quit, I would not want to be in any room with her that had any unsecured objects. And I hope she’s in her own digs. Otherwise, someone else’s furniture, china, fireplace tools, books, windows, etc, etc are done for.
eeyore on March 26, 2008 at 10:55 PM
Another one – she lied about Chelsea jogging around WTC and supposedly had just stepped into a coffee shop when the first plane hit – she specifically said that Chelsea heard the plane. This was on the Today show. Evidently Chuck Schumer’s daughter went to a high school right near WTC and Hildabeest was trying to one-up him. Chelsea commented in an interview a few months later that the way she learned about the 9/11 attacks was she was in NY and a friend phoned her and told her to turn on the TV to see it.
And, of course, she’s ALWAYS been a Yankees fan. :-)

The War Journals of Hillary Clinton, Vol. 1
It was a simple mission, they had told me – get in, shake a few hands and mouth a few platitudes, get out. Simple. Yeah.Things had started going wrong while we were still in the air and only gotten worse from there. So here we were, pinned down, choking on the acrid tang of cordite and the heady scent of human blood. The mission was even simpler now: survive. Whatever the cost, survive.There was a grunt and a clatter of equipment as Sinbad threw himself down at my side. Sweat glistened on his bare arms, and I could see tendons contracting and relaxing as he squeezed off bursts from his M14. The motion was hypnotic, like a snake about to strike. Perhaps, when all this was over- No. Concentrate. Focus on the mission. Survive.

Seven Percent Solution on March 26, 2008 at 9:44 PM
Is it any different than Nixion, LBJ, Ford, Carter, Bush 1, Bush 2, FDR, Truman. They all lie. they all strecth the truth. what’s the difference? Before the press would just not report it. Now with the internet they still don’t report it but people find it out. and fact check.
Don’t misunderstand me. I know as leaders they are required to lie at times to protect this country. But it seems that once they start lying they just can’t stop. They lie for natinal security, they lie to get bills passed (remember the immigration lies) they lie to get funding, they lie to further their own political capital. they lie and stretch the truth to the point that anyone that believes most words coming out of our leaders mouth is a class A moron.

It is so refreshing to see all the lies, fabrications and just general B.S. that has flown out of Shillary’s mouth finally coming back to haunt her. At this rate, after her campaign finally goes Kablooie, I truly wonder if the good people of New York will question whether she is worthy of yet another term as Junior Senator? Wonder if that thought has crossed her mind as of late?

Good ‘ole Ross Perot. I still remember him at the debates, straining to see over the podium, screaming about “that giant sucking sound” from the south, stealing all of America’s manufacturing jobs. Funny though, I can’t recall Hillary saying a word against NAFTA. Maybe it was one of those Jimmy Carter things — where she opposed it in her heart, but couldn’t bring herself to say anything against it in public.
AZCoyote on March 27, 2008 at 8:26 AM
