The latest USA Today / Gallup survey asks voters, among other questions, whether or not candidates are “honest and trustworthy.” McCain pulled ahead of the pack with 67% answering in the affirmative, Obama came in slightly behind him at 63% and Clinton was at the bottom of the pack with a paltry 44% answering the question in her favor.
Dick Morris (former political advisor to President Bill Clinton) says that “Hillary simply cannot tell the truth.” The examples he offers up are as follows:
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 personally like the idea of having a woman in the highest office in this country. But I also think it's supremely important that the President of the United States have a healthy relationship with the truth.
Is Hillary toast?
