HILLARY: CHRONIC CONGENITAL LIAR
Exclusive: Chuck Norris list top 5 bogus Clinton claims
On Thursday, Hillary Rodham Clinton testified all day before a bipartisan congressional committee about the brutal murders of U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans during the Benghazi terrorist attack on the 11th anniversary of Sept. 11 in 2012. They were killed by Islamic terrorists at the diplomatic compound and CIA quarters in Libya while Hillary was secretary of state.
While politicians and pundits continue to claim Clinton’s successes or failures regarding her roughly 11 hours of testimony before Congress, I consulted various fact-check resources about her alleged truth-telling.
Below I’ve ranked my top five bogus Hillary claims from those watchdogs:
Hillary bogus statement No. 5: Clinton said that before the Benghazi terror attack, “There was a good back and forth about security,” in reference to communications between U.S. personnel in Libya and the State Department in Washington.
The facts: The independent Accountability Review Board that Hillary herself convened after the attack “deeply faulted State Department officials in Washington for poor communication and cooperation as diplomats in Libya pressed for more security and Benghazi grew more dangerous,” according to the AP.
They specifically referenced a “lack of transparency, responsiveness, and leadership at senior bureau levels,” and “shortfalls in Washington coordination” that led to a “woefully insufficient” security force in Libya. The Benghazi compound was “grossly inadequate to deal with the attack.”
Hillary bogus statement No. 4: Clinton furthermore asserted that personnel in Benghazi “were granted many of their requests” and “some improvements to the mission’s security.”
The facts: Again, according to AP, the independent Accountability Review Board concluded that “Washington showed a tendency to overemphasize the positive impact of physical security upgrades” to a “profoundly weak” system. Moreover, leaders in Washington were “generally failing to meet Benghazi’s repeated requests” to improve security.
It is simply unthinkable that the U.S. State Department personnel in Libya made approximately 600 requests for better security in Benghazi, and yet all of them were unheeded and escaped the notice of Hillary and her underlings and were not even brought up to her during any security meetings, at least according to her. (And yet many voters want that type of lack of oversight and deliberate non-strategy and leadership communication at the helm as a new commander in chief of all our armed forces?)
Hillary bogus statement No. 3: Clinton said the advice of her friend and political chum Sidney Blumenthal, who wrote her more than 150 emails, which included reports of developments in Libya, was “unsolicited … I did not ask him to send me the information that he sent me.”
The facts: In response to Blumenthal’s reports, Hillary responded to him via her email, “Thanks and please keep them coming,” ”Anything else to convey?” and “What are you hearing now?”
Once confronted with this email evidence, Clinton revised her statement to say the email reports were “originally unsolicited.”
Hillary bogus statement No. 2: As an excuse that emails could have avoided her and had not been her primary form of communication, Clinton told the congressional committee, “I did not email during the day and – except on rare occasions when I was able to.”
The facts: AP fact check concluded, “Clinton sent about one-third of her emails during working hours – on weekdays between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. – according to an AP analysis of 2,754 emails she wrote from April 2009 through September 2010, based on time stamps on the messages.”
More email amnesia from Hillary? (This is the single smoking-gun email that should bury Hillary.)
Hillary bogus statement No. 1: Clinton denied that she ever blamed the Benghazi terrorist attack on an anti-Islamic movie trailer posted on YouTube. Instead, she tried to justify her 2012 words as actually not blaming the video:”I referred to the video that night in a very specific way. I said some have sought to justify the attack because of the video. I used those words deliberately, not to ascribe a motive to every attacker but as a warning to those across the region that there was no justification for further attacks.”
The facts:At 10:08 p.m. on the night of the attack, Clinton released a statement saying, “Some have sought to justify the vicious behavior (in Benghazi) as a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet.”
However, one hour later, she wrote an email to her daughter that explained: “Two officers were killed today in Benghazi by an al-Qaeda-like group.”
The next day after the attack on our Libyan compound, she similarly told to the Egyptian prime minister: “We know the attack in Libya had nothing to do with the film. It was a planned attack, not a protest.”
Yet, on Sept. 14, 2012, three days after the attack on the U.S. compound, President Obama and Secretary of State Clinton spoke at the transfer of remains ceremony of the four Americans killed in Benghazi. In public, Hillary continued to blame the anti-Islamic video for the assault: “This has been a difficult week for the State Department and for our country. We’ve seen the heavy assault on our post in Benghazi that took the lives of those brave men. We’ve seen rage and violence directed at American embassies over an awful internet video that we had nothing to do with. It is hard for the American people to make sense of that because it is senseless, and it is totally unacceptable.”
Even the diary entry from a Benghazi victim’s dad, which was released just a few days ago, corroborated Hillary’s accusations when he wrote what she personally told him at that transfer of remains ceremony on Sept. 14: “I gave Hillary a hug and shook her hand. And she said we are going to have the film maker arrested who was responsible for the death of my son.”
And yet, now, in October 2015, Hillary testifies before a congressional committee that she never blamed the anti-Islamic video for the Benghazi killing of four courageous Americans?
Hillary either believes her own lies or is a pathological liar when she confidently doubles-down to the congressional committee: “I can only tell you what the facts were.”
Her recollections and statements remind me of another Clinton, who once said, “It depends upon what the meaning of ‘is’ is.”
It seems that some habits are just too hard to break in the Clinton dynasty.
In fact, Hillary has “a pattern of lies, obfuscations, deceit, and treachery” that goes back forty years to the Nixon era. In 1974, Hillary worked on the legal team that drafted a 60-page historical study of the legal underpinnings of the impeachment process. Jerry Zeifman, a Democrat who served as counsel and chief of staff for the House Judiciary Committee during the Watergate investigation, explained the character of the 27-year-old attorney in this way: “she was a liar … . an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.” In 1999, Zeifman told Scripps Howard News Service, “If I had the power to fire her, I would have fired her.”
There’s a reason that William Safire, a Pulitzer Prize-winning political columnist for the New York Times, labeled Hillary a “congenital liar” back in 1996.
Do voters really want another truth dodger, ethics compromiser, ego-driven justifier and chronic congenital liar sitting in the highest office of the land and being chief of all its armed forces?

My comments: We are living in a time when Truth has been "Thrown to the ground." (Daniel 8:12) The Main Stream Media cares Nothing for the Truth. They are of the same godless, Socialist, Secular Humanist RELIGION as Hillary and will Protect her till the End. And Democrat voters don't care about the Truth, because their RELIGION is more important than the Truth.
