The Snipergate lie was a LIE. How can anyone defend it?

[Zhade]

Seriously - I'm stunned to see anyone defend this bald-faced lie that clinton repeated several times AFTER it was shown to be a lie.

Video evidence shows it was a lie. This is not debatable. How can anyone deny that it was a lie? I truly don't understand the self-delusion necessary to pretend it wasn't the lie that it was.

1. No no no no no

She misspoke. I read it on the intertubes!!!!!!!!111111111111

[FlyingSquirrel]

20. My kids keep telling me they have no homework.

Hate it when they misspeak to me!

;)

[Johnny__Motown]

23. Maybe they are sleep deprived, better send them to bed earlier

[JayFredMuggs]

2. No Obama supporter defends it

I guess that leaves the Hillary supporters.

Who seem to keep avoiding talking about it.

EDITED TO ADD:


I think this is Hillary's final downfall.

No one will elect ANOTHER President that they know to be ready to be a LIAR, from day one!!!!

[Zhade]

14. I wish they'd just not talk about it, but some actually say it's NOT a lie.

That's just... crazy. It's a proven lie, no debate possible, yet they still call it a "mistake".

I truly don't get it. Desperation? Denial? Delusion? How can they not see the lie for what it is?

[anonymous171]

3. Clinton has some REALLY loyal supporters.

[JayFredMuggs]

4. yeah? so? does this mean

They would have supported Bush in 2003 in his invasion of Iraq, if they knew he was lying, too?

[Cooley Hurd]

5. One's lie is another's grand adventure...

...truth be damned!:rofl:

[UALRBSofL]

6. That issue was so last week ! ! ! ! ! !

Were on to a new scandal starting tomorrow. I'm thinking it's Obama's turn this week. I believe James Meeks needs to play this week. If you didn't get the memo they alternate weeks with scandals.

[Cooley Hurd]

8. Honesty is the latest victim of the bus, eh?

:D

[anonymous171]

13. God damn the media! They keep on swinging us around! We need to do something!

Can we threaten to boycott the convention coverage if they keep doing this? Or can the party broadcast the convention using public broadcasting of some kind? I want don't want these big media corporations profiting off of our debacle.

[babylonsister]

26. "That issue was so last week!!!!!!"??????

You're a Clinton supporter, so support her.

[gal]

33. Until this campaign is finished it will continue to be a issue.

This is her credibility and should remain a issue. She lied....do I want a president that embellishes the truth? Isn't that the same thing Bush did with and why we invaded Iraq?

You can't hide this no matter how much you want to, she lied and it will remain a issue until she is out of the race.

[babylonsister]

40. Yo, gal, welcome to DU!

:toast:

[cliffordu]

7. I keep asking the same fucking question:

It is a slap in the face of every veteran who have ever served under fire.

It trivializes the sacrifice every KIA veteran and their families have had to make.

She needs to get off the fucking stage.


:puke:

[boppers]

9. The RWRC did it!

Remember when the stories about Monica were "a conspiracy"?

Hillaryland isn't just another perspective on reality, it's a form of reality that requires absolute loyalty, and outright denial of anything that conflicts with that reality. It's a tad religious in nature, that way.

Meanwhile, in Obamaland, we get to see our candidate admit to doing something boneheaded, and not only does he admit it, but uses it to further his campaign. It's a very different way of dealing with reality.

[bilgewaterbill]

10. Obviously, you've never had to stop a war in Northern Ireland!

[Sensitivity]

11. JUST WORDS. Hillary utters MILLIONS OF WORDS, what are a couple hundred MISSPOKEN??

[dkf]

25. Yeah Millions of Words EVERY DAY!

[tabasco]

12. Did you see that thread about it being like art?

Like she was just doing some story-telling to make people happy?

Utterly fucking ridiculous!!

[Zhade]

15. That IS ridiculous.

NT!

[BuyingThyme]

16. It is now my understanding that the story was absolutely true.

It's just that it happened to somebody other than Hillary.

These things happen.

[cliffordu]

18. Ya, I heard that too, near the same place, another senator.....

[Zhade]

19. LOL! Is that the new lie?

Someone should tell her that lying to cover another lie is still lying.

[BuyingThyme]

22. I don't think she's saying that, but it's apparently true.

[freesqueeze]

17. don't yall know this will damage Hillary

when she runs for NY gov?

[Rosemary2205]

21. it would be better if they all just shut up and let it die.

In a week the news will have moved on and America will quickly forget. The more it's defended and explained the more pathetic it gets.

[Zhade]

24. Well then, as someone who opposes liars, I'm glad they won't shut up.

I just don't understand how they can fool themselves for a liar.

[cliffordu]

27. Except that my brothers in arms are still dead in Arlington and she

lies about HER 'service under fire'.

She shit on THEIR sacrifice, every time she lied about it.

THIS IS NOT A TRIVIAL THING AND IT WILL NOT DIE.



Wait till the MSM has a couple veterans on to talk about it.

To let it go is to say service to your country in uniform is meaningless.

Hate the war, love the warrior.

[Zhade]

30. Look just below, where another DUer is likewise shitting on their graves.

Disgusting, isn't it? A prime example of the delusion of which I speak.

[bigtree]

28. You're obsessed with calling it a lie. What's stopping you? You want to control what others think?

Good luck.

[Zhade]

29. It is a lie. Your denial doesn't change that fact.

Can't WAIT until she accepts her loss and you have to shut the fuck up about Obama or leave DU. Less assholes supporting a liar around here will be SWEET.

[bigtree]

42. You're real big on bossing folks around

I'm not impressed with the bullying.

[Zhade]

49. Learn basic reading comprehension. Pointing out a lie isn't bullying.

NT!

[cliffordu]

32. Ah, bigtree....

My favorite creepin' duMP'r.

:hurts:

The one thing I know about you, figtree, is that you have never served in the military.

I think you are the perfect Hillary supporter:

Blind to the truth about the bitter Half truths, lies, bullshit, intellectually corrupt wheedling, blaming, prevaricating, confabulating, foot stomping, pouting, fake tear generating, coattail riding, non-security clearance possessing Lewinski blaming position stealing Demo/neocon....ad infinitum.....


You really earn your keep, though, don't you.

Do they pay you by the post or the word??

:puke:

41. you're real big on the personal attacks

shows a lack of confidence in your argument

[cliffordu]

43. My argument lies dead in Arlington.

[Zhade]

48. Pointing out that a liar supports a liar isn't a lack of confidence.

It's an observation.

[ecstatic]

46. I admire him/her because when the going gets tough

S/he is the only HRC supporter who even attempts to put a spin on the more blatant lies. All the others stay silent until they can come up with a creative new race baiting thread.

[zulchzulu]

31. What I find absolutely stunning are the "explanations" for her obvious "misstatements"

Ferchrissakes, if Obama was down in delegate counts, popular vote counts and overwhelming numbers of states lost like Hillary Clinton and came out with a statement like her Bosnian LIE, he would have been forced to drop out of the race in a day or two.

Imagine Obama talking about his visit to Moscow with Lugar referring to the denuclearization of the region and lying that they were under sniper attack and had to duck their heads and what the FUCK ever...oh, and he brought one of his daughters too.

The Clintons have been pathological liars for so many years and this was just another example. Not only was the delivery of her lie (all laughing and shit like some "tough broad") disgusting, but it actually cut at the heart of how the military would NOT put a First Lady and her daughter in harm's way...and for what? They would have flown her into an ongoing battle with her daughter and told her to run to the airport building? WHAT THE FUCK?

[cliffordu]

35. Exacty right. She is pathological. And disgusting

[Zhade]

38. It's pretty insulting - that she thinks we're too stupid to recognize the lie...

...and that the military is so stupid that they'd put the president's family in danger!

TOTAL fucking lie, and some people simply refuse to accept it (just like her loss).

[Cha]

34. Thankfully some of the newspaper's political cartoonists

across the country see it for what it is..a damn lie.

It's 'mis-remembering'..and it's contagious.

39. I call it Paulie Shore Syndrome

Whereas there really are people that think he is funny, some people will always believe a lie even when proven to be a lie.

[OzarkDem]

47. Selmagate was a lie!

See how easy that is?

[Zhade]

50. Is there video evidence that proves it was?

If not, your analogy is flawed.

It was a lie. Don't like that fact? Too fucking bad.
