When Hillary lied, no one died.

11. Voting = Death?
Then we certainly need not worry about Obama --he rarely bothers.

13. Clinton is the only candidate here who voted to create this situation.
So yes, in her case, voting = death.

15. That's rather simplistic of you
and indicative of someone who would excuse Bush of war-crimes.

(and I said much the same when it was Kerry running in '04)

19. No, just pragmatic.
Bush declared this war, but we do ourselves a disservice if we don't also identify the enablers. Whether their votes were based in political opportunism or ignorance, they're not the people I want making further decisions.

3. Worse, IMO.
He lied for profit -- she is lying for power.

He wanted the right wing of the party to believe him (and they did), she is deceiving the left.

Not good.

21. Millions have been killed, maimed, bereaved or paupered by *'s lies.
Clinton has already corrected herself, more or less, and very few people actually died beyond a few cerebral hemorrhages in this forum.

Let's keep some perspective.

No. That's taking it a bit too far.
It was a stupid lie but it did not and will not kill anyone.

5. No, but it's right up there with all those years he spent on active duty in the NG.
Especially the ones spent flying fighter jets.

9. No, but if we excuse this and other lies, she will certainly feel empowered
to tell the bigger whoppers in the future, like Bush.

10. Well Lies and Liars
Now you that you have admitted Hillary lied. Now its by how much...degrees of lies.

If Hillary can lie so easily about a fact of no consequence. It all comes down to trust. How in the hell can you trust someone that would lie like this, to not lie to you when it really really matters?


...good question worth the debate.

14. When it comes to the question of integrity
There is political correctness (do these jeans make me look fat) and there is lying for expediency.

No contest.

18. Embellishing a story to pad your "Experience" resume
isn't little white lies. She fabricated the entire event, to make herself appear as more experienced. And for political gain. Sort a doesnt fall into the catagory of "Do these jeans make me look fat"

Now I don't know about you, but I DEMAND better of the PRESIDENT. Hasn't the last 7 yrs taught you anything? I can not, for the sake of my children and grandchildren, vote for someone I can't trust to tell me the truth.

25. Newsflash: All three candidates make a damned good liar.
No one is above stretching their own ego inflated accomplishments.


Disclaimer: I support none of the three candidates.

Not really worth the debate when they are all liars.

26. Bingo!
A good friend of mind told me if he had to choose between a liar and a thief he would choose the thief. I asked him why? He said, with a thief you knew what to expect, and could deal with it. With a liar, you never could.

If Obama had been caught in such a bald faced lie, he would be toast.

Why Hillary even is considered at this point is a mystery to me....
