MIDI - SHE CRIED

And when she told you she did not know what Bill had done
Hillary lied

With FBI files, she claimed that she did not have fun
Hillary lied

She took a thousand and then made 100 grand
Of the market, she has command

And when she told you she had not set up Billy Dale
Hillary lied
She raised her right hand and claimed her memory had failed
Hillary lied
She lied

Hillary's Lies
By Reed Irvine | June 19, 2003 "We both knew there would be hell to pay if . . . we failed to take swift and decisive action in conformity with the First Lady's wishes." Listen to the radio version

Hillary Clinton's book is titled "Living History," but a quick scan suggests that "Hillary's Lies" would be more appropriate. For example, Hillary was deeply involved in the abrupt dismissal of the entire staff of the White House travel office in May 1993. She says in her book she was stuck with the consequences of an off-hand comment she had made about mismanagement and waste in the travel office. She says that after an audit found the records "were in shambles" Mack McLarty and the Counsel's office decided to fire the staff.

Billy Dale, the veteran head of the office, says there was a review, not an audit. He said he was unable to find some of the records Peat Marwick accountants sought because Catherine Cornelius, who was said to be a relative of Bill Clinton's, had been installed in the office for several weeks and had taken some of the records home. Hillary doesn't mention that they planned to have her take charge of the operation with the expectation that she would steer the travel business to a firm in which their close friend Harry Thomasson had an interest.

David Watkins, the assistant to the president for management and administration, was slow to execute Hillary's wishes. In a memo for the record, Watkins said he told Mack McLarty that "Hillary had conveyed in clear terms her desire for swift and clear action to resolve the situation." The memo says, "We both knew there would be hell to pay if...we failed to take swift and decisive action in conformity with the First Lady's wishes." The travel office staff was promptly fired and removed from the White House grounds.

Bill Kennedy, one of Hillary's Rose Law Firm partners who was on the staff of the White House counsel, asked the FBI to investigate Billy Dale to find evidence of embezzlement. They found none, but Dale and his family suffered immensely thanks to the FBI and the IRS. Neither agency came up with any evidence that Dale had embezzled or had taxable income that he failed to report.

Hillary says the Justice Department found enough evidence to indict and try Dale for embezzlement. Dale, confronted with legal bills that he could not afford, offered to plead guilty and accept a light sentence, but he said that he would not give up all that he had worked for. He said he would go to jail for three months, but he would not admit stealing any money. He was willing to make that plea in court, but he said he would go out on the courthouse steps and tell the press that he said that to save his home for his family.

His lawyer told him that would only get him more jail time. His plea bargain was offered to the Justice Department, but it was rejected and the case went to trial. With the absence of any evidence of wrongdoing and with Dennis Sculimbrene, an FBI agent who had been assigned to the White House testifying for him, it took the jury only twenty minutes to find Billy Dale not guilty. Independent Counsel Robert Ray questioned Hillary about her role in this case. He reported that her testimony was "factually false," but he declined to prosecute her because, he said, there was insufficient evidence to get any jury to convict her

Hillary's Rightward March


Deroy Murdock - Scripps Howard News Service

If Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's rightward march continues, her media cheerleaders will relaunch her as "Hillary Rodham Goldwater." Sympathetic commentators have ballyhooed the New York Democrat's shift toward the center. Each of her less-than-socialist utterings confirms her mounting moderation.

Don't believe the hype.

The Duchess of Chappaqua remains a committed liberal Democrat. Her capture of the White House would advance limited government about as much as would have a Walter Mondale or Al Gore victory.

Clinton's votes expose her as an Exacta-grade thoroughbred to statist liberals and a scoliotic nag to free-market conservatives.

From 0 to 100, "the middle" should rest between 33 and 66. Clinton scores well below 33 on conservative vote tallies and far higher than 66 on liberal evaluations.

The American Conservative Union gave Clinton a 0 for her 2004 Senate votes. Her career ACU rating is just 9. Among other things, Clinton opposed a bill to criminalize the injury or death of a fetus during a violent offense. She also favored hiking the top tax rate from 35 percent to 36 percent and spurned legislation to promote testing and deployment of a missile-defense shield.

For her 2004 Senate votes, the National Taxpayers Union gave Clinton an 11 percent rating - an F.

In addition, the NTU's Bill Tally for the 108th Congress revealed that Clinton is the Senate's second-biggest spender, right behind Jon Corzine, D N.J. She sponsored or co-sponsored 211 bills to boost expenditures and only three to curb outlays. Were they all enacted, new federal spending would have zoomed $378.2 billion annually.

"That's the largest number of bills to increase spending supported by any senator," says the NTU's Pete Sepp. "Corzine would have spent more money annually ($440.7 billion), but he backed fewer pieces of legislation than did Hillary Clinton."

Clinton's 2004 votes scored her an 8 percent approval from Citizens Against Government Waste, matching her 8 percent lifetime rating.

"Hillary Clinton's 2004 rating, the 19th-worst in the entire Senate, was far below average for a Senate Democrat," according to CAGW President Tom Schatz. "Senate Democrats had an average rating of 16 percent in 2004 and 19 percent lifetime. The entire Senate's average rating in 2004 was 40 percent."

The American Security Council, a conservative foreign-policy organization, gave Clinton a 20 for her record in the 108th Congress. Her votes to shift $5.03 billion from Iraqi reconstruction to domestic programs and to strike research funds on a nuclear "bunker buster" weapon, among others, violated the ASC credo: "Peace through strength."

Clinton's grand slams on the left parallel her strikeouts on the right.

Americans for Democratic Action calls its ratings "the standard measure of political liberalism." The April 2005 ADA Today awarded Clinton a 95 rating for opposing nearly all of the "vile reactionary projects that this extremist regime raised before Congress this past year."

For her 2003 votes, Ralph Nader's Public Interest Research Group gave Clinton a 95 percent rating, exceeding her 87 percent career average.

Clinton earned a 100 percent rating for 2004 from AFSCME, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, the bureaucrats' union. This matched her perfect career record for advancing the agenda of government workers.

Clinton scored a 100 percent rating for 2004 from NARAL Pro-Choice America, the former National Abortion Rights Action League. It applauded Clinton for opposing the Unborn Victims of Violence Act of 2004. As its Web site explains: "The legislation would recognize the 'unborn child' as a seperate (sic) victim when a pregnant woman is assualted (sic) or killed."

What about Clinton's call last January for Americans to find "common ground" on abortion? What the press trumpeted as an overture to anti-abortion activists "turns out to be recycled remarks from when her husband was still president," the New York Post's Eric Fettmann discovered. Clinton delivered the same remarks to NARAL gatherings in 1999 and 2005, only this time they somehow showed her sympathy for the anti-abortion cause. Fettmann isn't buying. "Same speech, same sentiments, same audience. Doesn't anyone use Google anymore?"

So, the fake's progress continues. As journalists wave their pompoms, Hillary Rodham Clinton blurs her image and increasingly calls the political center her base. Just one little thing spoils this pretty picture: Her Senate vote record.
