* "Chelsea was jogging around the World Trade Center on 911."
* "I landed in Syria under sniper fire."
* "We were dead broke when we left the White House."
"The Benghazi attack was the result of a video."
* The emails containing classified information on private servers were set up in "accordance with the rules and the regulations in effect." - But a federal judge disagreed, saying Clinton "violated governmental policy" when she used a private server to store official State Department messages.
Wow! Those are some veritable fictions, fantasies, falsehoods and fabrications!
And there have been other lies, too, associated with Clinton's 'war chest' of deceit. If she actually was in the Marine Corps and got a medal for every one of her lies, she'd look like Johnny Comes Marching Home returning in his dress uniform back to the holler!
These falsities and fables include:
* Hillary Clinton claimed to have been turned down by the Marines when she applied in 1975. Washington Post fact-checkers quickly realized the absurdity that a rising legal star at the time,
and soon-to-be-wife of Bill Clinton, would drop everything and ship off
with the Marines. They gave her two 'Pinocchios' for her tall
tale. The Washington Post gives a 'Pinocchio' rating for significant omissions and exaggerations.
* Hillary claimed to be named after Sir Edmund Hillary, one of the first men to climb Mt. Everest. The explorer didn't climb Everest until Clinton was 6 years old, creating a major time-traveling question.
* Hillary Clinton claimed during a session when she was discussing immigrant stories, that "all my grandparents came over here" making her the direct result of four immigrants. Actually, a story Politifact published said this was an outright lie - only one of Hillary Clinton's grandparents was an immigrant, Politicfact discovered.
* Ms. Clinton claimed that passing DOMA was a "defense action" to prevent further action against same-sex marriage. Actually, independent observers say that "any fair historical analysis" shows DOMA to be "a campaign tactic" by the Clintons.
* Hillary Clinton claimed that concern over the cost of college has been the impetus for her college affordability plan. But although she said she has a plan to lower college costs, her family has received millions from universities across the country. And although this might not be an outright lie like the other examples, it is a slight-of-hand trick performed a a master dealer at a political poker game in the Miss Polly Saloon at the corner of Hard Luck Street and Bankrupt Kid Avenue.
* Hillary Clinton's campaign said they would go "carbon neutral," yet, Clinton and her enterouge, which sometimes includes "Billy Boy," fly from place to place on private jets. What gives?
So we're in for a lot more of this "Hee Haw" show if the Hill and Bill Show gets rescheduled come November. How an honest and upright U.S. Senator from Vermont got outdone by this duo, who are about as warm and cuddly as two cottonmouths sunning themselves in a Louisiana swamp, is really an enigma to me. I don't know, vote for Donald Trump or vote for Hillary. I'm just into changing channels these days....
And if I vote, which I might indeed not do at all, I'm writing in Bernie Sanders. After the ballots have been tallied, if my man isn't the winner, I'll most likely be thinking of moving to Mexico, the U.K., or maybe, Canada.
