Why Hillary Continues to Lie
Accuracy in Media ^ | September 13, 2016 | Roger Aronoff

Posted on 09/15/2016 6:33:11 PM PDT by Ooh-Ah

Why does Hillary Clinton continue lying and covering up her various activities, whether it is her pneumonia, or the fact that she regularly sent and received classified information on a private, unsecured server, or that she traded favors, influence and access as secretary of state for large payments to her husband or her family’s foundation? It is because if she told the truth, she would never be elected president, and would almost certainly end up behind bars.

When asked why she decided to keep secret the medical diagnosis she received on Friday, she told CNN’s Anderson Cooper on Monday night that “I just didn’t think it was going to be that big a deal. It’s just the kind of thing that if it happens to you and you’re a busy, active person, you keep moving forward.” If Hillary hadn’t been caught by a bystander’s cell-phone camera nearly collapsing as she was being helped into her limousine, we probably still wouldn’t know about her pneumonia. Her lack of transparency on this matter has forced the liberal media to acknowledge Hillary’s health issues, which have fueled much speculation about other possible ailments she may be hiding.

With the release of the notes on the FBI investigation into Mrs. Clinton’s handling of classified material, and the Bureau’s interview with her, it becomes more and more apparent that she is trying to run out the campaign clock without admitting to her many lies. When Hillary first explained the use of her private server, she said it was a matter of convenience, so that she could use just one device. But the FBI summary reveals that there were actually 13 mobile devices she used, plus several iPads. At least one, maybe two, of the phones were destroyed by a hammer.

Hillary and Bill are driven by a lust for power and money and Hillary especially will literally do anything to become POTUS. She believes she is owed the presidency which was snatched from her by Obama because she put up with Bills shenanigans. The deal in her mind is she boosted Bill to the presidency by actively covering up his bimbo eruptions and now it’s payback time. She is ruthless in attaining this goal and lying means nothing if it furthers her ambition. Both Clinton’s are hardened liars, but Bill could be convincing even when confronted with the bare naked truth. Hillary is not convincing and is being caught up in the complexity of her lies

she continues to lie for the same reason all liars continue to lie... to cover up previous lies.

With over 50 days left in this election cycle, it’s a near certainty that Hillary will have another Parkinson’s episode. Maybe several.

There’s no telling where and when it will strike. Could be in private - could be while she’s “powering through” something as simple as a speech in a high school gym. If it happens again in public, she’ll be forced to concede that very day.

Why? ... Because she is of her father, the father of lies a murderer from the start. She lies because it is her nature

Affirmarive sir. She is of her father Satan, a liar from the beginning. Lying comes naturally for her. She has had a ton of practice doing it. She will wake up in the flames 🔥

Yes, the first time she tells the truth, she knows it will instantly conflict with any number of things she’s said in the past 30 years, so it’s probably just easier to keep lying. So she won’t waste all that momentum she’s built up!

Because she, like bammy and most libtards, lives by the motto “lie when you can, tell the truth when you have to.” Seriously, that seems to be SOP for most liberals.

It is because if she told the truth, she would never be elected president

If she told the truth, she would be kicked out of the democrat party for behavior unbecoming a RAT.

It’s the “24 hour” pneumonia, get over it hater (s). I actually had the “walking “ version of it when I was a college freshman. Should have dropped the quarter. Pneumonia my ass.

It's congenital; she was born a pathological liar.

Bigger question is why, after all these years, do the American media still accept at face value everything she and her husband--and now, their daughter--say, write or have conveyed to them through a spokesperson?

In the great journalistic tradition of reporting all points of view on controversial or poorly-researched topics--an alien concept to the current tribe of scribes--the verb "alleged" and its adverb counterpart "allegedly" had an important role to play. When there was some doubt about the veracity of a statement given to a reporter, it wasn't just regurgitated as fact. There was nearly always an out, such as "according to . . " or "allegedly" to cover the reporter's (and, indirectly, his editor's) butt.

"Hillary was diagnosed last Friday with pneumonia" is a perfect example of the short-cuts today's news readers take. According to whom? And what did she have before the sudden onset of pneumonia?

Oh, sure: she was in fine health. Chelsea can vouch for that.

Liars and their sycophants vs. the American public.

Also, some of them consider it good, clean fun to keep getting away with it. I think Obama might fit into that category.
