(snip) Having completed a round of media interviews, she was then in Dublin, having a drink at the Shelbourne Hotel with the musician and producer Brian Eno (Bono had just left them), when her phone rang. It was Denis McDonough, the foreign policy co-ordinator for Obama’s first presidential campaign. Had she seen a certain right-wing news website? She had not.
“They have you saying all kinds of crazy sh** about Hillary to the Scotsman,” he told her.
The “crazy sh**” included referring to Hillary Clinton, then a presidential candidate, as “a monster” and the observation that “the amount of deceit she has put forward is really unattractive”.
As Power relates in her book, she told McDonough that she could not possibly have said these things, as she had not even been in Scotland on her book tour. Then she told Eno: “I couldn’t have said those things, because that’s not what I think.”
But as it emerged, when Power’s memory of her publicity tour returned in full, she realised she had in fact given an interview to the Scotsman, to a reporter named Gerri Peev. From her hotel room, past midnight, she called Peev. She writes in her memoir, “I assumed she had made up the quotes loosely based on whatever she had written in her notebook.”(snip)
“Because I didn’t think I said any of those things. I didn’t have those views,” she says.
But as Power recalls in the book, Peev held her recorder up to the phone and played back Power’s quotes. She had reported them verbatim.

I call Hillary Clinton The Devil, and I mean it.
She doesn’t want to get Arkancided
¡Sí!
Hillary isn’t a monster — she’s more a shape-shifting lizard skin alien.
She meant Gorgon. She simply forgot the word.
She’s an ok looking woman...an Irish complexion and hair color.
Looks aren’t important. What’s important is her awful politics and denying she said Clinton was a Monster even though she was recorded saying that.
Samantha Power: I called Hillary Clinton a monster, but I didn’t mean it
><
She says she didn’t mean it because actually she is terrified of the monster.
Samantha Power & her husband Cass Sunstein always made me nervous during their days working for Obama. Both appear to be classic Socialist/ Globalists, who do not believe in borders or the sovereignty of individual countries. EU style. I am relieved both are now some distance away from the seats of real power in the White House.
“Samantha Power: I called Hillary Clinton a monster, but I didn’t mean it”
Wife of the head of the Clinton killing machine is more like it.
Samantha Power is a monster too! It takes one to know one.
An ogre yes but a monster is carrying it a bit far.
I always call people after midnight.
Liquor involved?
Power- classic dish rag!
That is a dangerous psychopath.
in vino veritas
Samantha Power IS a monster, and yes I mean it.
What an evil woman.
She lies about what she said.
Then she gets caught.
Then she says she did not mean it, because she never expected to get caught.
This is evil.
I expect she lies to herself all the time, and cannot keep the lies straight.
In other words, when she realized she was caught lying
