She's almost as bad as Slick Willie, "I misspoke" Did she lie? Did her lips move?

[Marcus]

She is truly a MONSTER!

When will the FOX NEWS demand for a re-vote in Ohio where she clearly lied about NAFTA to get votes.

Unbelievable!

[Tex]

Misspoke? I guess it depends on what your definition of the word "sniper" is.

[Rex]

At least Hillary Clinton loves America and doesn't hang out with racists and bigots like Hussein Obama.

Marcus my friend, you need to take a group of your black friends to Africa and find a wonderful place to live, maybe you can find a wonderful country like Zimbabwe, oh, I forgot, it was ONCE a wonderful country with super highways and rich agriculture until a black guy became President and beat to death or ran off the white people who were building the highways and wonderful farms and ranches. According to America's black folk these days, America's a horrible place filled with all those horrible white people. Maybe you can convince Hussein Obama to go with you and you can set up a nifty Islamic state that hates everyone and Louis Farakahn can be your "goodwill" ambassador and Rev Jeremiah Wright can broadcast hate messages to the free world.

The kindly old gentleman Senator McCain says the democrats are a bigger mess than the mess in his depends.

Forget what the news said about "not seeing any snipers". When does anyone see a sniper? They're meant to not be seen. I don't care for Hillary Clinton, but she or McCain are certainly better Amricans than Hussein Obama and his dog and pony show of hate mongers.

This is all that needs to be said about this:

It speaks for itself.

Misspoken?? No way.

[None]

Constantly disappointed Obama or Hillary cannot get to the issues. with all the issues we have is "tit for tat" really the biggest issue they want to address?

The outrage came, the campaign clarified and it apparently was credible. Some things are misspoken and all the candidates make them.

But statements made over and over like McCain's about Iraq or Hillary's about NAFTA and Bosnia flunk the sniff test for misspoken statements. It has to do with repeating the remark after being corrected on it. Not cool.

[JohnInLa]

Lying for Hillary is nothing new...all the Obama camp wants is something to make the Rev. Wright nightmare go away...ain't going to happen...ever.

[jenny623]

So what? What has this got to do with the issues? The media is fueling this petty war between the Obama and Clinton campaign. One week Obama is in the dog house, next week its Hillary's turn. Give this crap a rest already. I wish the media would agree not to report any more childish, petty retorts from either side unless its about the issues. I still don't know what either Hillary or Obama stands for at this point. I know the lies, retractions, and retractions of retractions have been plenty. But what do they stand for. I'm one of thoese voters on the fence now, and I feel like I'm on Mars, waiting for some intelligent life from the Democratic party to beam in and signal there's intelligence.

The American people clearly miss the daily lying to the teeth and the deceit of Hillary and Bill Clinton only because their daily lies to the American people are so unique and authentic.
Hillary recent lies about her bravery and hilarious fight against the imaginary enemy while she was under the barrage of bullets flying around her will be made into a new movie that Hollywood is starting to make. Hillary refused to admit this recent lie even if the reporter Sinbad that was eyewitness of Hillary visit of Bosnia denied Hillary’s lies.
Nevertheless, how could Hillary not figure-out that there was a video of her ceremony in Bosnia after she landed in the airport? However, as a decent person that Hillary wished she was, Hillary hurried to admit she was misspoken after she realized that she was caught lying 'big time'.
Nonetheless, there was another Hillary's lie that she refused to admit lying recently...
Hillary was caught lying few days ago when documents from the Clintons’ Library proved that she was supporting NAFTA in 1996 and even pushed women to support it.
In her campaign in Ohio Hillary lied to her audience saying that she was fighting NAFTA for the good of the poor working people...
Clearly, the American people will miss Hillary’s and Bill’s daily lies to the American people when they will both will be thrown out…US political lives as the biggest liars in US politics history.

Well she comes from the school of thought that it's all just spin so you keep on spinning.

My older brother thinks like that too. It caused trouble in our family. The professionals called him a pathelogical liar and later a sociopath. Eventually my parents gave up on him. To this day, he'll say that truth is boring or for cowards. When I pointed out all the undesirable baggage he has (divorces, lost jobs, mooching on our parents and others) and asked him if it was worth it, he claimed they all had it coming to them! Then, as I stared incredulously at him, he revealed a quick flash of rage that he quickly covered up with a change in the topic.

I see Hillary looking and sounding a lot like my brother at times.
