Hillary apologizes in WV for saying, 'put coal miners and coal companies out of business'
American Thinker ^ | 03 May 2016 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 05/03/2016 1:58:45 PM PDT by Lorianne

In what Monica Alba of NBC News called “a rare candid moment” (I love it that even NBC News acknowledges Hillary is such a phony), Hillary Clinton “apologized to a man who confronted her over comments made earlier this year about putting coal miners "out of business.”

She’ll flip right back.

After she has told America that “we will take things away from you for the common good.”

That guy’s job likely to be one thing which succumbs to her demented concept of “common good”

Did she try sounding like Loretta Lynn when she "apologized?" Audiences love that kind of sincerity.

Hillary needs to read up on the Battle of Blair Mountain but she won’t.

Why should Her Thighness care what mountain people and coal miners think?

That’s utterly correct.

She did NOT apologize for anything. She said the word “apologize” but sandwiched it between notions that the coalminers are too stupid to understand her, and that she didn’t get to finish her statement...

Which was ridiculous. She said “Put (you) out of business.... because we need to help you get better jobs”

Why doesn’[t this subhuman criminal open the coffers of her illegal criminal “foundation” to help the miners and their families??? This political fool is sooooo exercising her “white privilege”.

She didn't actually apologize or admit she'd made a mistake, did she?

Well, it was sort of a 1/2 or 1/3 or 1/4 or 1/5 apology:

"I don't know how to explain it other than what I said was totally out of context for what I meant because I have been talking about helping coal country for a very long time," Clinton said. "It was a misstatement because what I was saying is the way things are going now, they will continue to lose jobs. It didn't mean that we were going to do it. What I said is that is going to happen unless we take action to help and prevent it."

Note that she led with the how can I explain it so you'll understand and I was taken out of context before saying that she "misspoke."

Then she moved on to saying that it's "how things are going now" without any acknowledgement that "things are going" that way now because of what the Democratic administration has been doing.

So, yeah, she wasn't saying "me loves to put coal miners out of work" but that's the effect of the policies she supports and the policies she'll impose.

This queen should never apologize-someone might take that lie seriously too.

She is happy that all those whites will be out of a job.

What she meant to say is “Gee Im sorry I actually got caught, I was hoping these people didn’t hear me say this but now that the cat is out of the bag here let me hide my true motives”

“She said her comments were ‘misunderstood’.”........

Meaning the lie she told was actually a different truth (lie) and conflicted with the truth she had misspoken about a different lie earlier. Got it?

Hillary is the most perpetually prodigious LIAR on the face of our fine planet.

Hillary is much more comfortable lying, even when the truth might serve her better.

Even though she is a non-stop, reflexive, and psychopathic liar... she is just plain awful at it.

I’m hoping she just stokes out permanently. If she becomes president I’ll probably have a stroke.

She wants to retrain miners to suck farts out of bus seats because everyone knows mass transit is the next big thing in coal fields and rural America.
