Hillary Clinton had no evidence to back up her claim in the latest Democratic presidential debate that the Islamic State group is using video of Donald Trump to recruit Muslims to its cause. [...]
During Saturday's debate, Clinton stated that the Republican presidential contender is "becoming ISIS's best recruiter," with the group attracting people by showing videos of him.

She is so used to getting away with obvious lies that she just says whatever she wants and expects not to be called on it.

Obama is “ ISIL’s” best recruiter; nothing could be a better draw than , “C’mon we can beat this guy.”

She can be fact-checked on the first part of her sentences before the last part is out of her lyin' mouth.
No, wait, on second thought, don't tell her. Let her drown in her own lies.

Yep, those Dem ABC debate moderators didn't even think about challenging Shillary's lying here.

It is well established (in Hilary’s mind) that video caused Benghazi.
To: Olog-hai
I am stunned that anyone would ask her to back it up.

Probably the same video she blamed for Benghazi.

Hillary: Let’s be perfectly clear. Muslims have nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism. But if Trump pisses them off, they’ll rush to join ISIS more than ever!

Hill is in a DEEP trouble if now the MSM is going to fact check.

Obviously the AP must be rooting for Sanders or they would not even bother to attempt fact checking on Hillary's lies. They certainly didn't bother fact checking her lies on Benghazi and the film that supposedly caused the attack.
