That is the question Keith Olbermann puts to viewers and his guest Margaret Carlson when looking into the accounting of Hillary and Chelsea Clinton's Bosnia trip. It is a really interesting question. We'll let the viewers decide.

(711 posts)(for you) normal standards behind and opt for "any which way" approach, that can perhaps bring the desired results. High standards is easy to have when you occupy a position of power, but gets challenged as you start to slide from a privileged position and the optimism that comes with it. Your moral standards reflect how much you believe that you can prosper and succeed with what little you have got.

(67,782 posts)...the new rules by posting this in "V&M" so you could get it to the home page.
As each week goes by these Clinton hit pieces from the past become less and less effective because there are less and less voters to be "converted".
Guess, what? Hillary Clinton will still win the nomination and be elected President.
assuming, arguendo, the factual accuracy of such reports, why is that a good thing? If you support the positions of someone who has a poor track record where truth is involved, how could you trust that she would still support those positions when elected?

(11,076 posts)Every time she repeats it it is a new one. She just couldn't stop herself. At the expense of the soldiers who were guarding her I might add.

Instead of addressing it, her supporters continue to justify it.
I'd like to see how far John Edwards supporters would get if they defended all of his lies.

Or, why tell the truth when a LIE will do?...

(13,877 posts)wife and only child into a war/sniper zone? That kind of says it all. Not one father I know of...and surely not Bill Clinton...who is not my favorite politician, but either way, there is no way. That before all the video that speaks the truth.
Imagine what Chelsea thinks/observes/hears when her mother tells these lies publicly that involve her. I did hear her "worrying" about Bernie taking away people's health care, so maybe it's just the apple dropping near the tree.
