**** Yes, everyone is entitled to make a mistake. Obama’s mistake was supporting the Trinity Cult for 20 years and then after a chance to redeem himself he wouldn’t that is what cost him his chance to become President. I’m glad to see Hillary keeping him on the run. The truth is McCain and Hillary are the only two orth voting for.

I just looked at the clip!! Way to Go Hillary!!! This is what makes her better than Obama. She can atleast admit when she is wrong, this I respect!

http://www.hillaryclinton.com/news/release/view/?id=6752

This isn’t a mistake; It’s a flat out lie. When are you people going to stop giving Hillary a free pass on this?

On June 13, the Chicago Sun-Times reported that Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL), while serving as an Illinois state senator in 1998, “did a political favor” for Chicago Democratic fundraiser Antoin “Tony” Rezko by writing letters to state and local government officials in support of a Chicago housing project proposed by Rezko’s company, New Kenwood LLC. The Sun-Times asserted that the “letters appear to contradict a statement last December from Obama, who told the Chicago Tribunethat, in all the years he’s known Rezko, ‘I’ve never done any favors for him.’ ”

Here’s the text of that interview, in pertinent part, from a written interrogatory submitted to and responded by Barack Obama:

Q: Did Rezko or his companies ever solicit your support on any matter involving state or federal government? Did Al Johnson, who was trying to get a casino license along with Tony Rezko, or Rezko himself ever discuss casino matters with you?

A: No, I have never been asked to do anything to advance his business interests.

How can you mistake being shot at? I think she tried to add a little more drama to her story. Big mistake.

GO HILLARY !!!
Yes, you did make a mistake - and said so - end of this stupid story. This can hardly compare to Obama with his ranting, racist, anti-American church of 20 years. He also said he never heard/knew of the rantings - then in his great speech said Yes, I did know of the message - did not agree - but - will stay in this church. Obama can never be elected with this church and new pastor with the same old message. The Obama campaign is really reaching for anything they can find negative on Clinton - she has kept quiet on the pastor story until asked a direct question.

GO HILL!!!

If Clinton was smart, Obama smart, she would have cleverly dragged her little old grandma into this matter to help out instead of just admitting she’s human and misspoke. She would have said that the fact remains that she was in Bosnia while it was in the midst of an active war and that during this trip she experienced and got first-hand accounts from the U.S. military as they were serving in this war…..not unlike her little old ‘white’ grandma who shuffled out ,day after day, to the mailbox and had to dodge the ‘black’ next-door neighbor’s barking ‘black’ dog. Right now Obama’s probably working on a foreign policy speech where he can equate his Virgin Islands experience with Clinton’s war-torn Bosnia experience. Virgin Islands–Bosnia; Virgin Islands–Bosnia…As long as Obama throws grandma into the crossfire, it’s rhetoric We Can Believe In!!!!!

There was no war in Bosinia.
Clinton was there on vacation.

The question for Hillary is…..has she EVER run from a plane covering her head from sniper fire???? If not, how did she conveniently think of that. The truth is she’s not able to tell the truth.

Hillary laid out a very detailed, and well thought out, fabricated story of something that never occurred, which can only be characterized as a flat out lie rather than a mere misstatement. A misstatement would be I meant to say this happened in Somalia, or any other location, and not Bosnia. So now we know for certain that both Hillary and her husband are liars (please be reminded that Bill was disbarred as a result of committing perjury).
If Hillary is willing to lie about something as trivial as traveling through an airport, what else has she lied about; and why should we expect her to keep all of the potentially false promises she has been bantering around throughout her presidential campaign? Especially in light of the fact that she lied to Ohio voters about her support of NAFTA.

Sen. Clinton’s exaggeration of her foreign policy experience makes me wonder as a voter what other exaggerations she has. I think this will hurt her in the long run. I know I have changed my mind about her as being the President. She can’t admit she lied.

If Ms. Clinton was warned about entering a dangerous war zone on her trip to Bosnia, why did she allow Chelsea to join her on the trip?

I can not believe no one has picked up on the true meaning of the “Bosnia landing” into a War Zone. What The Clintons were talking about were the landing not the ground activity. The landing was quite a tactical display for anyone who has never taken this ride. You literary fall straight out of the sky and make a controlled crash landing on an air strip. Rather than giving up secure information about how our service people make these types of landing in a “HOT” zone, You half to admire her for keeping the faith and not giving up this procedure that has work for years to land in a hot spot by saying “I made a mistake”. I do not support Hillary but after this, I no what she really did and will consider her as a middle class voter.

MR/ KY

This is a signficant error because she was using it as a cornerstone of her international relations experience. Just like all of the other “experience” she claims to have, this is just a bunch of hot air. Lie, lie, lie, and when you get caught, oops, it was a misstatement. I think it would be pretty hard to forget dodging sniper bullets on a tarmac in Bosnia. I hope I never find out, just like Hillary.

What experience does she have?
Hillary was First Lady, not President, and the only responsibility she was given, for Health, she screwed up!
I am amazed.
And now she has been shown to have a pattern of embellishment, and claims to have misspoken… four times, on the same topic. Either she has some serious memory issues, or is trying to consistently mislead the American public

Everyone this was not the first time she “misspoke” she did in in Texas on Feb. 29th. I can see if she “misspoke” in March but then to find out that she did it in a rally down in Texas well I call that a flat out lie.

clinton needs a running mate. Kwame kilpatrick is a good choice can chill with bill. Bunch of liars

And her husband most famously didn’t have s.e.x with Monica Lewinsky. Liers, liers,…

This is the Sheriff…

Anyone who disagrees with Mormonism, Mitt Romney, the practice of polygamy, or sex with sheep is gonna be cuffed, and subsequently, frisked by me…COUNT ON IT!

She tells millions of words every week, which proves she’s human. Therefore, she tells many lies. Bill’s human too!

I don’t believe Mrs. Clinton’s statement about Bosnia.Unless your used to being shot at,you distinctly remember the times were.And,if you even think there may be sniper fire,would you stroll off of your transport with your daughter, smiling and heads held high.That doesn’t sound like a misstatement,especially after seeing the Bosnia arrival footage.Her excuse could not possibly be weaker.Think about it.

TO WHINEY AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE

Remember last week when we were having that constructive debate on the Church of LDS? Afterwards a gentleman on the blog here corrected a few misconceptions I had on Mormonism. He said that you don’t believe in HELL. Something about you believe in a place of darkness but nobody goes there except someone like Hitler. Im paraphrasing him but thats the idea (I think)

All week long, I’ve been thinking of that and I’ve concluded that is the religion for me. The heck with all that FIRE AND BRIMSTONE. Hey, Im down with the idea of no Hell. I am 100% sure I want to convert.

So I was wondering, do I get an application form from you? Can I start calling myself a Mormon now? I just don’t know how to go about this..

The problem with this is I can’t give you my address to send the application forms to. I just feel if you knew where I lived, you would jump into the old 68 Ford pick up, hook up you’re house to it and be out to my residence in hours. where you would park you’re home in my front yard.

No offence, WHINEY but I feel you might become kind of pesky if you came here. I just feel that you would think that you’re my best freind and you would want to hang out with me all the time. I just feel like you could become sort of clingey. I might be wrong but thats the way I would see things happening.

Lookit WHINEY AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE, let me work out some logistics here and I’ll get back to you

DUMBHILARY !!!! MILLIONS OF WORDS PER WEEK LOL…. AVERAGE PERSON SPEAKS 15000 WORDS A DAY !! FOR MILLIONS OF WORDS A WEEK YOU NEED TO SPEAK 10 WORDS PER SECOND WTHOUT SPEAKING !!!
GUESS THATS WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU JUST SPEAK AND NEVER LISTEN…
EXAGGERATING RESPONSE TO EXAGGERATING MISSPEAKING LOL….THIS IS ‘HILARI’OUS …
PLEASE POST THIS..I WANT PEOPLE TO HAVE A GOOD LAUGH…

This woman can never get her story right. Left-wingers express their disapproval to the esteemed POW and senator McCain for his age. But Hillary sounded older than McCain. She perhaps suffered from a brief bout of Alzheimer for her “mis-spoken”. She even went on to say that it proves she is human. Then in same way, she could say that what ever perceived mistakes President Bush made, he is after all a human. Is this who we want for president? God Bless America.

Is this all you’re going to say about this, Fox News? You’re not going to run all the tapes of all the times Senator Clinton “mispoke” about this event? And then run them again, over and over? Of course, that might take up a great deal of your time and distract you from your routine Obama bashing. . . .

I bet Hilary is running for president just because she wants to get even with Bill Clinton. I wonder who is going to be male Monica Lewinsky if she, God forbid, wins? Any guesses?

There is a difference between “misspoke” and LIEING, this is LIEING. The Clinton’s are lying crooks, just like when they where back in Arkansas and they gave a broker $5000 and in a few weeks it magically turned into $90,000. But the funny part is that the Clintons never went back to this broker again. I know if my broker turned a $5000 investment into $90,000 that broker would become a close family friend, and I would be seeing him/her allot. This broker also had a close relationship with Tyson chicken, Arkansas’s largest employer. Or what happened to the L.A. Times story that came out a few months ago, where she got millions in donations from the poorest parts of China town. Some of these people that where listed as donors, where surprised that they gave money because they didn’t. This means that someone or some country was giving large donations and covering them up by opening a phone book and righting down names. The Clinton’s say they don’t know what happened in this case, but when in the history in politics does someone get a large amount of money not knowing what it is for and what that donor wants in return. The Clintons are the scum of the earth.

Darwinism prevails.

The pin-heads supporting Clinton’s lies are going to get the government they deserve.

Just like y’all did with Bush.

Evolution will take care of everything. Eventually.

YOO-HOO AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE. I’VE GOT A BIG GUN IN MY POCKET. I THINK YOU NEED TO FRISK ME ALL OVER. I LOVE IT WHEN YOU CALL YOURSELF SHERIFF

So she made a mistake. I am please that she knows how to admit it. Go Hillary

Another LIE for the Socialist wannabe

ed feeney,

I could just hug you! I’ve been hoping you’d see the light and get the burning in your nether regions! All you have to do is believe Joseph Smith is God’s prophet, and follow his (Smith’s) teachings, as well as all subsequent president/prophets of the one true Church (LDS). And you also need to learn the secret temple ceremonies (including the handshake that’ll get you into heaven). Oh yea, you need to tithe at least 10% of your income to the Church of JC of LDS so we can increase our immense wealth. Of yea, you also need to obtain some pairs of lucky undergarments (with special, sacred markings). If you do all this (and abstain from caffeine, tobacco, alcohol, sex, and smiling), you can become a Mormon. Welcome to the family, Ed!

YOO-HOO AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE–OH I MEAN SHERIFF STUDLEY-HOW DID YOU KNOW I LIVED OUT HERE IN THE BIG WILD WEST? BIG GUNS, HANDCUFFS AND WEARING CHAPS. SOUNDS DELICIOUS

ME FIRST, ME FIRST. I WANTA GET PATTED DOWN FIRST THEN I’LL DO YOU

there are liars and super liars

Rampart,
As soon as you stop giving obama a pass?

Michael Gillespie,
Democratic left-wingers like you gave us 8 years of George Bush, by nominating two losers in AL GORE and JOHN KERRY. Now you are trying to nominate another loser in obama. No thanks!

There’s a huge difference between “admitting a mistake” and get caught lying. You admit a mistake when you don’t have to do so. Both Hilary and Bill Cinton were caught lying, and were FORCED to talk about that (and of course, put a spin on that-”admitting a mistake”). Because of the video evidence shown she couldn’t simply ignore it. I wonder what else she lied about? I doubt we’ll hear her ever admitting a real mistake!

eddie,

I’m blushing like a school girl!

THANK YOU FOR WELCOMEING ME INTO THE FAMILY. DO I CALL YOU BROTHER NOW? YOU KNOW IVE GIVEN IT ALOT OF THOUGHT IF I COULD GIVE UP ALL THOSE VICES. IM SURE I CAN BUT DO YOU KNOW THEIR FEELINGS ON MAN-LOVE. I DON’T KNOW, THATMIGHT BE THE DEAL BREAKER.

LOL! If she wasn’t busted with footage of her trip she would be telling the same story over and over and over. She is not going to say she LIED, that’s too harsh of a word, so she’ll say she misspoke or she made a mistake! LOL!

She’s only saying she’s misspoke now because she was busted in a LIE!

She’s just like her supporters, delusional!

Hrc its your turn to sleep on the sofa

It’s about time that Hillary’s foreign policy ‘experience’ gets vetted. Did she really think that being first lady qualifies her to be president on ‘day one’?
It really makes me wonder about her credibility, in telling the truth.

obama supporters should read up on the difference between a lie and an exaggeration.

IM LEAVING FOR THE AFTERNOON AND ID APPRECIATE IT IF YOU WERN’T TALKING TO THE REST OF THESE GUYS WHILE IM GONE.

OH IM SORRY, I HAVE NO RIGHT TO BE POSSESIVE OF YOU. AFTERALL WE HARDLY KNOW EACH OTHER

archaeo,
what qualifies obama?

OH MY GOSH!!!!!

This lie or misspoken words are so unimportrant. Is there nothing else to report???

I am not a supporter of either of the Dems in this race and not sure I am for McCain either, but if you want to talk about lies that count, talk about Obama and the Wright thing…………..although I am sick of that too, but believe it is of importance and to some extent shows his true views and feelings. Talk more about his embellishments on his time at the university as a lecturer or the report card of his achievments as a Senator.

I believe very strongly that we are not ready for a President who is so controversial………….Black or White…………… we need a President who is steady and sure, not one who can pull us apart at the inner seams………………. If he wins the Presidency on his “charismatic speeches” …………….God help us…………….We have too many hard to solve problems waiting for the next President.

I have heard Obama’s people calling for Clinton’s taxes. That made me think that Obama must have already released his, but I see that he has just now released his………..what was that about?
”
BTW: Why don’t ya’ll put a “Vote for Obama” inset on the screen?

“let’s examine the impact of Rev. Wright’s statements on senator obama’s two daughters. Nothing says it better than a song from the musical “South Pacific,” to wit, “You have to be taught to hate and fear…You’ve got to be carefully taught.” Few dispute that Rev. Wright’s sermons are filled with hate. Why didn’t Obama stand up in the church and denounce his hateful statements or, at the very least, argue privately with his minister? It was horrifying to see on a video now viewed across America the congregation rise from the pews to applaud their minister’s rants”.

blackie for liars u are annonying move on to cheat.com

Now to Obama’s grandmother. There was a time spanning the 70’s to the mid-90s when many blacks and whites in large American cities expressed the same feelings on street crime held by Obama’s grandmother. Indeed, the Rev. Jesse Jackson made similar comments in 1993 at a meeting of his organization, Operation Push, devoted to street crime. According to a Nov. 29, 1993, article in the Chicago Sun Times, he said, “’we must face the No. 1 critical issue of our day. It is youth crime in general and black-on-black crime in particular.’ Then Jackson told the audience, ‘There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps and start thinking about robbery. Then look around and see somebody white and feel relieved . . . After all we have been through,’ he said. ‘Just to think we can’t walk down our own streets, how humiliating.’”
Isn’t that exactly what Obama’s grandmother was referring to? To equate her fears, similar to Jesse Jackson’s, with Wright’s anti-American, anti-white, anti-Jew, and anti-Israel rantings is despicable coming from a grandson. In today’s vernacular, he threw her under the wheels of the bus to keep his presidential campaign rolling. For shame.
What is it that I and others expected Obama to do? A great leader with conscience and courage would have stood up and faced down anyone who engages in such conduct. I expect a president of the United States to have the strength of character to denounce and disown enemies of America — foreign and domestic — and yes, even his friends and confidants when they get seriously out of line.

I’m still with Hillary….

What if a minister in a church attended primarily by white congregants or a rabbi in a synagogue attended primarily by Jews made comparable statements that were hostile to African-Americans? I have no doubt that the congregants would have immediately stood up and openly denounced the offending cleric.
Others would have criticized that cleric in private. Some would surely have ended their relationships with their congregation. Obama didn’t do any of these things. His recent condemnations of Wright’s hate-filled speech are, in my opinion, a case of too little, too late.

her lie or the fact that she mispoke is a lot better than Obama saying he knew nothing about the hate that Wright spewed from his mouth. Obama finally had to admit that “yes, he had heard it”

McCain 08. One man that does not lie!!!!!!

It is also disturbing to me that Obama’s wife, Michelle, during a speech in Wisconsin , said, “For the first time in my adult lifetime, I’m really proud of my country, because it feels like hope is finally making a comeback.”
Strange. This is a woman who has had a good life, with opportunities few whites or blacks have been given. When she entered Princeton and Harvard and later became a partner in a prestigious law firm, didn’t she feel proud to be an American?
When she and the senator bought their new home, was there no feeling of accomplishment and pride in being a U.S. citizen? When her husband was elected to the state legislature and subsequently to the United States Senate, didn’t she feel proud of her country?

***********

No, sir! ‘Man-love,’ as you call it, is by no means a deal breaker! If it were I would be excommunicated in a heartbeat! There are thousands (if not tens of thousands) of gays, lesbians, and transgender individuals in the Church. Many of us believe that, in the afterlife, homosexuals will enjoy the same polygamous privileges as those of heterosexual families. A few of the more radical gay Mormons (like me!) are petitioning the Church to allow same-sex unions to be eternally sealed in the temple. Pray the Prophet has such a revelation in the near future.

P.S. You may be right (in your previous post) that I might camp out in your yard if I knew where you lived…I might even climb through your bedroom window, you big hunk of a man, you!

P.S. 2 e.d. doesn’t stand for erectile disfunction does it? Even if it does, don’t sweat it, I can solve that problem LICKety-split - Trust me!

barbara e,
Maybe McCain is so old, that he has forgotten how to lie?

Hillary is corrupt, as is her cigar poking husband. If a woman had one lick of self esteem she would leave that husband, this shows bad character and judgement from Hillary. You can choose your cigar, but you can leave your cheating husband I say. Good thing Bill didn’t use a corkscrew landing on Monica Lewinsky.

teaparty51,
Maybe Hillary believes marrige. Good with the bad.

C’mon people, I’ve seen Hilary in a war zone for real. There are a few real life movies with her showing what her foreign policy may look like. She wears a lot of make up in them though (and stuffed with steroids-she needs strenght), but I can still clearly recognise her. The doco movies are called Rambo 1,2,3,4, directed by Bill Clinton and shot in Bosnia and Kosovo. Just ask her, and she will tell you a million words about them.

SHERRIF DO YOU THINK YOU AIM A BEAN BAG AT HRC. SHE MIGHT DODGE IT

She lied about being under sniper fire. On three different occasions. She was never subjected to sniper fire in Bosnia.

It is obvious she misspoke; however, Msnbc’s Andrea Mitchell was in Bosnia covering Clinton’s trip and Andrea did say that they were advised there was sniper fire, that they could possibly be moved to a different are; and if Clinton’s recollection of the events was not totally accurate, it was not a complete lie either, because Bosnia was a dangerous place, and Andrea Mitchell did state that they were advised there was danger in the area. This event was a one time happening. Compare this to Obama’s shifting gears in different interviews and appearances trying to cover up his no small blunder of 20yrs sitting in a church where his revered Pastor Wright was preaching “God D America”, and inflammatory hatred towards America and white people; I remember very clearly his interview in Fox where he said he never heard any of Wwright’s inflammatory speeches, then he said he did at other times, and then backtracked a few other saying he didn’t. The point is not only that he LIED, like he has in other issues such as his voting record, etc, but that he lied in an issue that involves his character, beliefs, association with this man to protect himself from scrutiny. This is 20yrs, not a one time event that Clinton exaggerated. It calls to question Obama’s patriotism and ideology, for it is very easy to talk a good game, until he’s won the nomination, and a very different thing when he not only is the nominee but probably the new Commander in Chief; also connect the dots, with his wife’s saying “for the first time in my life I’m proud to be an American! Is this the kind of First Lady we want in the White House, for the whole world to hear, friend and foe alike! What about his own stated friendship with the terrorist Ayres; his shady business transaction with Rezko; his own refusal to salute HIS flag. When you start connecting these things, what kind of picture do we get. We get huge lack of what he’s accused Hillary of, lack of JUDGMENT; we get the picture of a man that has very controversial friendships and associations. Hillary on the other hand, despite the vitriolic comments from media and the dislike that a lot of the extreme left has towards her, is someone we already know, definitely is patriotic, qualified, intelligent, she is a woman who has stood with dignity despite very difficult, embarrassing and sad times in her life, who has not gotten one break from the media, who has anointed Obama who in their eyes, even with such controversial issues, has covered for him refusing to scrutinize him the way they have most of the time unfairly done with Hillary.She is a woman of dignity, family oriented, a decent human being who has been criticized in the media to the point of ridicule, and despite that she is still standing up. If coverage of both campaigns had not been so biased towards Obama, spewing such criticism and ridicule of Clinton, the results of the first primaries might have been totally different. There still is time for the public to see through the demagoguery of Obama, the real Obama, if they give her a chance and the media starts giving her EQUAL AND FAIR COVERAGE.

Hillary Solutions for America: Miss-Remember about Bosnia, play the Wright Card in the Wrong game. The Clinton’s are past desperate and approaching dangerous.

A great leader with conscience and courage would have stood up and faced down Rev. Wright as he engaged in such conduct. I expect a president of the United States to have the strength of character to denounce and disown enemies of America — foreign and domestic — and yes, even his friends and confidants when they get seriously out of line.

We will see in the next ten contest, if the wright card is more important to the American than an exaggeration about Bosnia!

Do we need a president (Hilary) who can tell us a million words in a week, but at the same time can’t use her brain (gotta listen to herself)?

Are you telling me that Wright is wrong, and Hillary right?

HOw can any one “use the Wright incident in an unfair manner”? It is what it is and SHOULD NOT BE LEFT BY THE WAYSIDE. That incident means too much.

obama girl for VP!

Tosh. YES I AM!!!!

Tosh,
Because, a great leader with conscience and courage would have stood up and faced down Rev. Wright as he engaged in such conduct. I expect a president of the United States to have the strength of character to denounce and disown enemies of America — foreign and domestic — and yes, even his friends and confidants when they get seriously out of line.

This lie opens a window into the inner workings of Hillary and their Clan, pardon, Gang. She talks too much, millions, billions of words, but do we actually hear ANYTHING?

We must hold obama to same moral standards that we hold Hillary and McCain to!
