Can you point to one real lie Hillary told, with the exact quote and link?

Most of the "evidence" that she didn't land under sniper fire are the lack of reports of sniper fire or people recalling the city was safe but that doesn't mean that no shots were ever fired. Also she could have heard a loud noise and misremembered that as a shot. Lissa Muscatine who accompanied Hillary on the trip remember being told that the trip might be cancelled because of sniper fire in the hills. Hillary could have easily misremembered that or really meant that there was sniper fire in the hills that she heard about whether or not that was true.

Nobody who was with her, including her own staffers, recall any shots being fired. As the WAPO reporter says, had a single shot been fired, every media person with her, including himself, would have mentioned it.

It is really difficult to see that as anything other than a lie.

Many on the right say that Hillary lies. Some say she lies all day long, and that she tells thousands of lies per day, and so on. Every time I ask a Righty to provide proof of one such lie, they go silent. On the odd occasion someone makes a list, but it fails. They rattle off examples from the top of their head instead of providing an exact quote, and they rarely provide links. I look into their allegations only to find there was no such lie. They’ll say that Hillary Clinton said that, "never received nor sent any material that was marked classified" but she was simply not aware or remembered all of the thousand of things she sent and the vast majority were classified afterwards.

So please don’t rattle off lies off the top of your head. Find the exact quote, and provide a link to it. I will then look into it. If I find any genuine proven lies I will agree to them being lies. If I don’t see any proof they will be deemed Fake News.

Hillary is an honest woman so it’s doubtful you will find any legitimate lies. And remember, a “view” or a “belief” is not a lie. Hillary might say she believes in Zeus, and you might say that’s a lie. You would be using the wrong word. She might be wrong about something, but if she believed it when she said it, it is not a lie. For instance, if she boasted that would have been the greatest POTUS ever, that’s not a lie. She believes she would be. So do I. Another thing that is not a lie is an exaggeration or a joke. If Hillary said, “Half of Trump supporters are a basket of deplorables” this is her literally saying that 50% of her supporters are deplorable. That is the hysterical Right’s silly translation. Likewise, if she jokingly said, “Ladies, we’re gonna be the richest country for a million years,” that is not a lie – it is a harmless piece of joking or kidding around.

Here is the best way to go about this if you wish to try:

1) Calm down. Don’t rush.

2) Be sensible. Go find what you think is a Hillary lie. Use Google and Bing.

3) Research it a little. See what other people say. That part is very important.

4) Once you are sure it is a lie, and not just Fake News, present the accurate quote & link.

Good luck, but remember, to qualify you need to provide the EXACT quote, and provide a link to show the alleged lie details. You say she lies so YOU provide PROOF. I will look at that proof and if I see you made mistakes, I will provide details. Any rambling diatribe without links will be deemed Fake News.

Well, this thread didn't work out exactly as you'd planned eh?

Hillary sounds tough, but she lies, she exaggerates and that's a key reason people didn't like her. I don't like her because I think she's a bitch; I think that she'll withhold stuff that she shouldn't because she's mad. BUT she wasn't Trump, so I voted for her.

She did say that. But a lack of evidence of sniper fire from that event long ago isn't proof it did happen, and that claim is fake news. The girls meeting her was a Bosnia thing and not arranged by Hillary. If there were shots fired or she heard a loud sound of thought there were shots fired she could have misinterpreted that. Her speechwriter also recalls being told that there was sniper fire in the hills which is what Hillary may have meant.

LOL

Her speech writer huh? She was speaking off the cuff.


Geeees……………... another lemming!

Nope; I doubt that very seriously. His behavior upon meeting Obama for the first time told the whole story.

I think it worked out the way that the Russians wanted it to work out.
 
In this thread you learn about who the truly slow people are....:lamo

I disagree. It's not merely style. It's volume and substance. On many subjects, Hillary made the effort and had the capability of being very detailed and not getting much wrong.

Trump doesn't have the capacity or the will.

Hillary told some whoppers but one can list them. With Trump it would be easier to try to list any truths he tells.

Hillary had a comprehensive understanding of things related to government, here and abroad, and she could discuss it meaningfully. Trump is making stuff up as he goes. Getting cliff notes history lessons from dictators and acting like a proud kindergartener with a gold star because he thought he was mostly following what the dictator explained to him.

Her factual statesman-like manner wasn't mostly lies.

Trump's existence is mostly lies.

I think I can agree with that. Though mostly with "volume".
 
reinoe said:
I also have a problem with her and her defenders constantly excusing her when she uses weasel words, knowing full well her comments are lies by omission, obfuscation, and misdirection. She's far more dishonest than Trump, even if he does say things factually incorrect.
Click to expand...
I wouldn't necessarily call her "dishonest as Trump". But in line with Obama's famous quote, I'd call her, "dishonest enough!".
 
GDViking said:
She follows what her advisors tell her, trump just talks **** and says the first thing that comes to mind that he believes his adoring minions will cheer.

I don't care for either method however it is very clear Clinton was far more qualified to be president.

Without a doubt.

I suspect she would have made a better President, than campaigner.
 
I'm still on page 2. Did anyone mention "the Russians did it", or "it isn't my fault I lost the election"? Did anyone read the book she is peddling? Should be full of it.

Only with Bill duct taping her mouth, taking over and parading her around now and then.

Trump seems more like to be embellishing the truth in a gullible and uninformed way. Hillary is more conniving.

Well, the thing with voting for Hillary is it was a two-for-one deal. Buy her, and get a former Pres thrown-in for free. But even that couldn't save her! :doh

I do think that's accurate, Bug. Her and Bill were very legalistic. And it came through as conniving and technical.

Kinda like arguing with a person that is a great wordsmith, that spins your words around in technicalities even though you know your right, until you want to just slap them and get it over with?

You don't "misremember" things you have never experienced...

If you have ever been on the receiving end of fire you remember.

I remember the feel of the sand. The small flowers nearby. The scents of human urine from our waste receptacle..

And that was a couple of shots not particularly close.

But hey... Continue to defend lies.

How do you know being in action has the same affect on an older lady than it had on you? For example, in this story the eyewitnesses disagreed about every part of a shooting. And as I stated previously, she could have just heard from someone that there was sniper fire in the hills and that is the basis for her saying she landed over sniper fire. You have an agenda to believe she is a liar and just never considered the possibility that someone can just make an innocent mistake.

All that is of course possible. But it doesn't hold up via the reporters who were with her at the time and it is really difficult to extrapolate that as a misspeak or put any other interpretation on it:

It is of the same ilk as John Kerry's whopper during his campaign for the Presidency:
"I remember Christmas of 1968 sitting on a gunboat in Cambodia. I remember what it was like to be shot at by Vietnamese and Khmer Rouge and Cambodians, and have the president of the United States telling the American people that I was not there; the troops were not in Cambodia. I have that memory which is seared -- seared -- in me."​

And again according to WAPO's fact checking, it just didn't happen.

Did the Reports report that they heard no gunshots? Also her speech writer reported being told that there was sniper fire in the hills which could have been the basis of her claim.

This thread is working out perfectly especially when you haven't come close to proving she lied about anything.
