In the White House, a phone is ringing…
With Hillary’s image being tarnished, her trustworthiness doubted, and victory a mathematical, let’s say, “impossibility,” it’s Bill Clinton to the rescue once more! The once-great former President is now insisting that Hillary didn’t say on multiple, highly-publicized occasions that her visit to Bosnia was under constant fire, but rather that it was once. Only once. Late at night. After an exhausting day.
President Clinton’s version of the story has several inaccuracies. Hillary Clinton actually made the exaggerated comments numerous times, including at an event in Dubuque, Iowa on Dec. 29th, in Waco, TX on Feb. 29th, and twice—bright and early in the morning—on March 17.
I’d say that’s more than once. Probably more than when she was just exhausted. And I’d say she didn’t “apologize immediately” after each and every one of those. And let’s face it – that’s one Hell of a “misspeaking.”
But that’s all right. Bill Clinton has an explanation for how somebody could misspeak so badly.
“You woulda thought, you know, that she’d robbed a bank the way they carried on about this. And some of them, when they’re 60, they’ll forget something when they’re tired at 11:00 at night, too.”
blink. blink.
So, I understand it’s 3 AM, and our children are safe and asleep. But there’s this phone in the White House, see, and it’s ringing….
