Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them

Posted 22 Apr 2008 in Bill Clinton, lies

Bill Clinton gets caught with his pants down lying on the campaign trail yet again, this time about the WHYY radio interview yesterday in which he claimed the Obama camp was playing the race card over his comments comparing Barack Obama to Jesse Jackson on the day after the South Carolina primary.

Just how stupid does Der Schlickmeister think we are? Wait, don’t answer that. After all, we did elect him twice.

Here’s the transcript:

NBC/NJ: “Sir, what did you mean yesterday when you said that the Obama campaign was playing the race card on you?”

CLINTON: “When did I say that, and to whom did I say that?”

NBC/NJ: “On WHYY radio yesterday”

CLINTON: “No, no, no. That’s not what I said. You always follow me around and play these little games, and I’m not going to play your games today. This is a day about election day. Go back and see what the question was, and what my answer was. You have mischaracterized it to get another cheap story to divert the American people from the real urgent issues before us, and I choose not to play your game today. Have a nice day.”

NBC/NJ: “Respectfully sir, though, you did say …”

CLINTON: “Have a nice day.” [continues shaking hands with supporters]. I said what I said, you can go and look at the interview. And if you’ll be real honest, you’ll also report what the question was and what the answer was.”

NBC/NJ: “They asked you if you regretted your comparing Jesse Jackson to Barack Obama on the day after the South Carolina primary.”

CLINTON: “And I pointed out that I did not do that, and that I complimented them both. And that Jesse Jackson took no offense. And I called him myself, I said, ‘Did you find that offensive?’ And he said no.

Allahpundit snarks, “Compulsive lying or willful sabotage? Or head injury?”
