Driving Miss Hillary

The Clinton campaign website now has two different dates that Hillary saw Dr. King:
The campaign has scheduled an event with Don Jones who they now say "was Hillary's youth minister and first took Hillary to hear Dr. Martin Luther King speak in 1961". (Hillary would have been 13 at the time)
At the speech she gave in Selma, she said she saw him "on a cold January night" in 1963, when Mrs. Clinton was 15.
And two weeks ago she told Tim Russert "I was 14 years old when I heard Dr. King speak in person".
That would have been in 1962.
Because she wanted to pursue social justice.
Is her birthday Jan 1?
I don’t recall Bobby Kennedy having King thrown in jail but he certainly had him wiretapped because he was surrounded by so many known communists. If King were alive and healthy today, he’d be visiting Cuba with Michael Moore, hugging Chavez with Moonbat Sheehan, and calling Bush a “fascist” for fighting Islamic terror.
Dr King was a Republican, and so was li’l Miss Hillary, in ‘63, and ‘61, and ‘62. She was soon to become Daddy Rodham’s favorite Goldwater Girl.
King spoke in Chicago in early 1961.
She met Dr. King and Sir Edmund Hillary at the top of Mt. Everest in 1953, when she was five, and attending Yale Law School, and working with the Black Panthers, for the children.
If I were being obnoxious, I would say "Because Goldwater's back-to-the-founders'-ideals brand of conservatism wasn't incompatible with the idea that people of all races should be considered equal under the law."
...but in all honesty, I doubt that was her line of reasoning.
Because “It takes a President?”
Her memory about a specific date could easily be faulty but is she saying the minister took her to Selma AL to hear King or did she hear him in Chicago?
And these lies matter more than her lies about where she wants to take this nation because...? The press doesn’t care.
Geez Louise, was she STALKING the man?
I grew up in Selma, AL and watched the March 7, 1965 Selma to Montgomery march from a vantage point just east of the Edmund Pettus Bridge near the Hastings Mattress factory. I would have noticed a chubby, buck-toothed white girl with glasses had she been there. I saw no one fitting that description.
Sorry I went back and read it again and I see my mistake.
Algore invented Hillary.
>>If necessary, she is prepared to say that she marched with MLK and George Romney and remembers waving to young Mitt on the sidelines.<<
[snicker]
You’ve got to give her credit for TRYING, though!
>>Clinton being a congenital liar.<<
And her husband is a genital liar.
Oh what a tangled web she weaves.
Actually, I'm about HRC's age. In 1964, MLK thrilled me and I proudly supported Barry Goldwater in 1964. MLK had not yet become a socialist, affirmative-action icon. The racial issues were real then.
