Technically true. He never lobbied for them. He just delivered what they paid him to deliver.

Of course it depends on the meaning of the words “lobby”, “foreign”, “government” and maybe “for”. Hillary has some definitions that prove he’s innocent of anything.

Gov. Terry McAuliffe said Thursday that he has never lobbied in the U.S. on behalf of a foreign government, adding that federal investigators looking into his foreign connections are focused on a "very specific" lobbyist registration issue.

"I have never lobbied for a foreign government here. Ever," McAuliffe said during a morning radio appearance on Richmond's WRVA.

Never believe anything until it’s been officially denied.

Good work recollecting Charlie Trie. The Clinton machine has been bought and owned by the Chinese for 25 years.

It may be a lame answer, but it creates a real quandary for me.
which liar do I believe? The Media? The FBI? The Just-us Dept? Terry McAuliffe?

Talk about a dilemma.

“I have never lobbied for a foreign government here. Ever,”

Meaning at the EXACT GPS coordinates from where he issued the statement.

Maybe someone could remind Carl Bernstein since he has written so many articles detailing the criminal conduct of the Clintons?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1996_United_States_campaign_finance_controversy

While questions regarding the U.S. Democratic Party's fund-raising activities first arose over a Los Angeles Times article published on September 21, 1996,[1] China's alleged role in the affair first gained public attention when Bob Woodward and Brian Duffy of The Washington Post published a story stating that a United States Department of Justice investigation into the fund-raising activities had uncovered evidence that agents of China sought to direct contributions from foreign sources to the Democratic National Committee (DNC) before the 1996 presidential campaign.

Oh I'm sorry that was Bob Woodward. I'm sure Bernstein isn't familiar with Woodward's work?

McAuliffe: 'I have never lobbied for a foreign government'

Maybe he is a secret Chinese citizen.

Then, in Clintonspeak, he is telling the truth.

If the Clintonista machine finds out Obama is behind all of these investigations -OR- the Clintonistas don’t get the results they want, there’s going to be one heck of a fight this summer. I think we’ll learn all there is to learn about pre-2008 Obama as Hillary scorches the Democrat’s Earth.

Seeing these comments from McAuliffe make me want to puke. Only with the help of the almighty Clintons and their scummy ilk would scum like McAwful amount to anything.

I don’t live in Virginia ... I would have liked to have seen *how* he campaigned in 2013. I’d wager that nobody on FR would have recognized him ... if he were his typical, snotty self during that campaign, he would have lost regardless of Northern VA’s demographics. He had to have put on a great show for the state.

“I think we’ll learn all there is to learn about pre-2008 Obama as Hillary scorches the Democrat’s Earth.”

Come to think of it, she might have to do this anyway as she might have to run against Obama to stand a chance against Trump ...

Bingo. Applying the FalseSpeak codebook is like putting on the dark glasses in “They Live”. Pathological egos must drive these scoundrels to put in tells, when they could more easily just lie straight up.
