Re: Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them (2.00 / 0)

HRC's schedules have shown the truth:

The documents offer no support for her claims, made during the presidential campaign, that she helped to negotiate the Irish peace accords or facilitated the flow of refugees in the Balkans. Neither is there evidence in them to back up her claim that she helped pass the Family and Medical Leave Act, the first legislation Mr. Clinton signed as president. The legislation, sponsored by Senator Christopher J. Dodd, Democrat of Connecticut, sailed through Congress and landed on Mr. Clinton's desk 10 days after he was inaugurated. Indeed, on the day Mr. Clinton signed the bill into law, Feb. 5, 1993, there is no indication on that day's calendar that she attended.

Northern Ireland:
She claimed she was instrumental to the peace process.  Everyone, including those you mentioned, agree that HRC was never part of the peace negotiations.  Mitchell and others who wrote about the peace process never mentioned her in their writing.  Everyone, including those who have minimized her role in the peace process will acknowledge that she play a positive role in the process because she met with women's groups.  The problem is that it is silly, and politically stupid, for her to claim she was an instrumental part of creating peace--everybody knows that this is taking credit for the work of others.

SCHIP:
The bill was initiated in congress, with support from Hatch.  The Clinton administration was opposed, for budgetary reasons.  The budget and funding issues where worked out in congress.  As part of the lobbying effort to move the White House, HRC was recruited by those in congress to help get WJC to support the legislation.  HRC didn't create SCHIP, she didn't work to get congress to pass the legislation, she was recruited to get WJC to accept what congress was doing.  As much as her persuasion of WJC, SCHIP was accepted in the White Hosue because it's funding was changed so that WJC the initial budget issues were removed.  But, HRC was a helpful advocate in the White House, why can't she just stick with the truth?  Why does she need to take credit for the work of others?  HRC has been caught exaggerating on this when she takes credit this legislation.

Bosnia:
You're joking, right?

WJC was in there two months earlier.  HRC had her teenage daughter with her.

You need to acknowledge that she invented this story (which she repeated more than once) if you want to have any credibility.

FMLA:
you didn't address this one.
