So Dangerous, Bill Sent . . . Chelsea?
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 03/25/2008 7:07:59 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Hardball had some fun at Hillary's expense this evening over the mystery of The Sniper Who Didn't Fire. Credit Politico's Roger Simon with making the panel's most devastating remark.

Hillary's Heminwayesque claim has been that "we used to say in the White House that if a place is too dangerous, too small or too poor, send the First Lady." Chatting with host Chris Matthews, Bloomberg's Margaret Carlson, and Perry Bacon of WaPo, Simon observed what in retrospect might be obvious but something I hadn't previously heard anyone else remark.

ROGER SIMON: She says I was there because it was too dangerous for the President. It was too dangerous--so he sent his wife and only child? It makes no sense.

SOOO dangerous; that there was an eight-year old girl - with gift - standing out there waiting to greet Hillary; and whom Hillary said she had to stop and likewise greet?

( This was just one more of Hillary's latest embellishments from Hillary-Unplugged').

Surely her campaign people would like to gag Hillary or worse. . .

How stupid does this sound? Eight-year old greeter waiting on tarmac amidst the 'sniper fire' (as per Hillary) waiting for Hillary to disembark from plane.) The bravery of it all, made even more clear, by Hillary's insistence that she STOP as well, to greet this little girl and take a 'welcome gift' from her hands.

OMG. . .Hillary does belong in Hollywood. . . Actually, these sociopaths belong somewhere else.

(Interesting that in this version; Hillary is emphasizing by intimation; that she called up a bit of bravery here. . .duty if you will; by insisting that she 'greet' the waiting eight-year old under the threat of fire.

No concern of course, for the 'child'! And of course, in truth. . .there was no need to be; but this is the stuff of lies. Eventually, NOTHING makes sense.

Her list of lies - someone should post these
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2008/03/hillarys_list_of_lies.html

Admitted Lies

• Chelsea was jogging around the Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001. (She was in bed watching it on TV.)
• Hillary was named after Sir Edmund Hillary. (She admitted she was wrong. He climbed Mt. Everest five years after her birth.)
• She was under sniper fire in Bosnia. (A girl presented her with flowers at the foot of the ramp.)
• She learned in The Wall Street Journal how to make a killing in the futures market. (It didn’t cover the market back then.)

Whoppers She Won’t Confess To

• She didn’t know about the FALN pardons.
• She didn’t know that her brothers were being paid to get pardons that Clinton granted.
• Taking the White House gifts was a clerical error.
• She didn’t know that her staff would fire the travel office staff after she told them to do so.
• She didn’t know that the Peter Paul fundraiser in Hollywood in 2000 cost $700,000 more than she reported it had.
• She opposed NAFTA at the time.
• She was instrumental in the Irish peace process.
• She urged Bill to intervene in Rwanda.
• She played a role in the ‘90s economic recovery.
• The billing records showed up on their own.
• She thought Bill was innocent when the Monica scandal broke.
• She was always a Yankees fan.
• She had nothing to do with the New Square Hasidic pardons (after they voted for her 1,400-12 and she attended a meeting at the White House about the pardons).
• She negotiated for the release of refugees in Macedonia (who were released the day before she got there).

I have always thought Chelsea doesn’t look ANYTHING like Bill in any way. Since I first saw this morphing picture, it convinced me that it is entirely possible that Hillary and Vince didn’t have just a business relationship, and who knows the complete truth of his demise? Too bad for Chelsea, though. It must be difficult for her to know what people postulate about her parentage, whether Vince or Bill.

Let’s see. It’s too dangerous for Billy Boy so he sends Hillary and Chelsea. Iraq is more dangerous and W goes himself. Profiles in Courage.
