“Those familiar with the Clinton response to scandal know the process by heart. It inevitably goes something like this: first, deny any wrongdoing; then explain it as a misunderstanding or bureaucratic mistake; when it is clear there is actual wrongdoing begin to stonewall and obfuscate; then move on to simultaneously attacking anyone who brings up the scandal and dismissing the issue as old news.”

Exactly. There is relevant and timely news and old news. It just happens that after the “misunderstanding phase”...anything potentially critical of the Clintons has automatically become old news.

The last line was practiced by Barbara WaWa on the view this week when Elizabeth mentioned Clinton and Monica. Came unglued and said that was all over and done with. They all practice this brand of misdirection and fake outrage.
