Hillary’s Fable The lie she’s sticking with.

Thanks for the reply. I knew that she knew. My point is even if you take her lie at face value, she is admitting that she is too niave and incompetant to be POTUS. If she believed willie, then she'll believe anyting -- which is not Presidential material.

The fact is that Hillary and Bill have had a relationship based on a sick cycle of accusation-denial-admission-reward for decades. He is accused of an affair. He denies it. He admits it when he has no choice. Hillary forgives him and then Bill showers gifts upon her in gratitude. For putting up with Gennifer Flowers and going on 60 Minutes to "stand by her man," she got control of health-care policy. For Monica, she got a Senate seat. Some guys give necklaces, some give Senate seats.

That paragraph has my nomination as Paragraph of the year for 2003, so far.The fact his (alleged and in name only)) wife is a US Senator is still beyond my comprehension.Like him or not, Dick Morris is one Shrewd human.

Nobody believes any of Hillary's crap. During her Senate campaign I predicted that New Yorkers would not elect her because they wouldn't want the slimy, dishonest marriage of Bill and Hill flung in their face for six years.

My prediction about her election turned out to be wrong. But I was right about the marriage.

Morris has the most devastating answer yet to appear about Hitlery's lies. No wonder she learned to hate "The Toe" Dickie! However, the guy has a good memory for the facts of this case. His answers make her even more of a liar. The ghost of Evita Peron has returned to life and occupies Hitlery's fat body. Gad! Whatta disaster!

Oh yes they do! Babra Wawa was just on Hannity saying she believed hillary....

Of course BW is a moron if she really buys hillary's line that "bill had never lie to her" - this from a woman who had to defend him over Gennifer Flowers, hired private detectives to gather dirt on his philanderings when he was governor, hired Susan Thomason to handle "bimbo eruptions" yeah, I'm sure she thought bill was as honest as the day is long..

I've always wondered how this information about Dick Morris's private life came out in public. Wasn't it during the 1995 Democratic Convention? Who would benefit from this? Who wanted to make sure his word was never taken seriously again because he had a prediliction for ped-a-lickin? (And what's so bad about having one's toes sucked upon anyway?) It seems to me someone wanted The Man Who Knew Too Much to shut his mouth because he stepped on some toes.

Walters is an old pro who knows what to say in public. In her heart of hearts, she knows perfectly well that Hillary is full of it. The defenders of the Clintons have been knowingly complicit in an elaborate charade for years, and with each new iteration both the charade and the defenders look shabbier and shabbier.

I have a feeling bringing all this up again is going to backfire on Hillary, and just leave a bad taste in everyone's mouth.

This confirms a lot of what I'd suspected (If it's true and it's not just Dick Morris trying to stay in the limelight.)

However.

"For Monica, she got a Senate seat. Some guys give necklaces, some give Senate seats."

I don't read this that way at all. Hillary's always had her own ambitions. She was going to go for public office on her own at some point. The exposure of Bill's tryst with Monica didn't affect her decision to run, just maybe the timing.

What about the wives that are serial adulterers?
