It's All About Feeling Good, the Truth isn't Relevant in This Case

Speaking in Iowa Wednesday, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said that all her grandparents had immigrated to the United States, a story that conflicts with public census and other records related to her maternal and paternal grandparents.

The story of her grandmother specifically immigrating is one Clinton has told before. Clinton’s sole foreign-born grandparent, Hugh Rodham Sr., immigrated as a child.

“Her grandparents always spoke about the immigrant experience and, as a result she has always thought of them as immigrants,” a Clinton spokesman told BuzzFeed News. “As has been correctly pointed out, while her grandfather was an immigrant, it appears that Hillary’s grandmother was born shortly after her parents and siblings arrived in the U.S. in the early 1880s.”
“All my grandparents, you know, came over here and you know my grandfather went to work in lace mill in Scranton, Pennsylvania, and worked there until he retired at 65. He started there when he was a teenager and just kept going,” Clinton said.

The new acceptable answer to a provable lie is "I misspoke" and the pass is then given, unless you are a Republican. This snake has just begun to misspeak.

She is almost as amusing as Joe Biden. Will she claim to have black ancestors when she starts speaking in dialect at churches again?

Come on, what a lame attack. Who among you is old enough to remember their grand parents.

Now grilling a steak? That is serious. Clearly a disqualification.

"Mrs Clinton, her husband and Senator Harkin staged a mini-grilling of steaks for the press at a single barbecue grill in a fenced-off enclosure, framed by a handsome tree and a picnic table filled with some patient Iowans. Mrs Clinton gamely posed, pretending to grill a steak that had been pre-cooked for her."

Besides, steaks are for rich republicans. Dead broke democrats can't afford it.

They are threatening to take beef off the food pyramid. Go for it, just means more juicy steaks for me.

The cows will be very happy to hear that, but I understand the chickens and pigs are currently organizing a PAC to fight it.

At least she did not swear under oath that she was a "Hispanic".

Of course it is only an "outrage" if a Democrat mispeaks.
