Someone is lying here, about a serious matter.

Don't you think our illustrious free but cynical and adversarial press should look into it?

ROFL! Nah, I suppose not.

“Clinton made the denials three times”

He denied the messiah 3 times? Where have I heard that before?

Clinton didn’t deny offering him a position (unpaid, of course). All he’s saying now is he wasn’t involved in any quid pro quo. Clinton and Obama have plausible deniability. Sestak does not.
