"Safire called Hillary Clinton a congenital liar. He was right. That was 20 years ago. Some people never change."


Hillary Is a Congenital Liar - Lew RockwellOpinion | Essay;Blizzard of Lies - The New York Times (nytimes.com)  "Americans of all political persuasions are coming to the sad realization that our First Lady -- a woman of undoubted talents who was a role model for many in her generation -- is a congenital liar.

"Drip by drip, like Whitewater torture, the case is being made that she is compelled to mislead, and to ensnare her subordinates and friends in a web of deceit.

1. Remember the story she told about studying The Wall Street Journal to explain her 10,000 percent profit in 1979 commodity trading? We now know that was a lie told to turn aside accusations that as the Governor's wife she profited corruptly, her account being run by a lawyer for state poultry interests through a disreputable broker.

She lied for good reason: To admit otherwise would be to confess taking, and paying taxes on, what some think amounted to a $100,000 bribe.

2. The abuse of Presidential power known as Travelgate elicited another series of lies. She induced a White House lawyer to assert flatly to investigators that Mrs. Clinton did not order the firing of White House travel aides, who were then harassed by the F.B.I. and Justice Department to justify patronage replacement by Mrs. Clinton's cronies.

Now we know, from a memo long concealed from investigators, that there would be "hell to pay" if the furious First Lady's desires were scorned. The career of the lawyer who transmitted Hillary's lie to authorities is now in jeopardy. Again, she lied with good reason: to avoid being identified as a vindictive political power player who used the F.B.I. to ruin the lives of people standing in the way of juicy patronage.

 Hillary Clinton Accuses Republicans of Wanting Babies to Starve (townhall.com)  "Hillary Clinton took to Twitter to accuse GOP members of wanting to “kill certain babies” amid the nation’s baby formula shortage, while she and the Democratic Party support unlimited abortion on demand, making further clear their hypocrisy on respect for life.

. . ."The mishandling of the formula shortage is one more way in which the Biden Administration is putting American families last, at the expense of others. ". . .

. . ."While Clinton claimed Republicans want babies dead, her talking point ignores how Democrats are thus advocating for formula being sent illegal immigrants at the expense of American families. Further, Clinton, and the Democratic Party as a whole, advocate for babies being lost in the womb due to abortion. ". . .

Hillary Clinton: Return of the Congenital Liar - The American Spectator | USA News and Politics

Hillary Clinton had a brand new clean slate. After years of imprinting on the American people that she was a not so clever liar for whom allegations of deceitful, arrogant, and even bullying behavior seemed to follow her like a perpetual rain cloud . . .

William Safire: Hillary Clinton is a congenital liar - Washington Times

 "In 1996, The New York Times columnist William Safire diagnosed Hillary Clinton’s real problem. He called her a “congenital liar.”

"Congenital is defined as “having by nature a specified character.”. . 

"Hillary Clinton has had power as first lady, U.S. senator and secretary of State, now she wants to achieve the ultimate in power, the presidency of the United States. Along this road we have seen her record and it is a trail of cover-ups, misstatements, dissemblings, half-truths and outright lies. It is increasingly difficult to give her the benefit of the doubt on anything because doubt would imply there might be some reason to believe that at least some of the things she says are true.

"The perception is always that she is hiding something, which, if discovered, might harm her chances of winning the White House. But, from the inconsequential to the substantive, Hillary Clinton is about as transparent as lead.". . .
