Hillary = Dishonest Person
Since the HRC camp stays in the gutter – I thought we’ll start reviewing some of her deceitful ways over the last few months. First up….HRC dishonesty with a college student…..

Student describes how she became a Clinton plant

“it seemed like she knew to call on me because there were so many people, and I was the only college student in that area," After the event," she said, "I heard another man talking about the question he asked, and he said that the campaign had asked him to ask that question"… "Personally I want to know that I have someone who's honest representing me."

The Clinton campaign's acknowledgment that it planted a question reinforces a widely held criticism of the senator -- that she is not entirely honest, said Bill Schneider, CNN's senior political analyst.
Gergen said. "The problem here is it feeds a damaging perception of Hillary Clinton that she can't quite be trusted."

5. Even if her staffers plant questions, how does that make Hillary dishonest?
I see nothing wrong with campaign staff asking supporters politely if they would be willing to ask the candidate about a particular issue that the campaign wants to highlight.

It was just her staffers who knew? Right.....

7. "Since the HRC camp stays in the gutter ..."
... the Obama camp has decided to stay in the sewer, instead.

It's a Stink You Can Count On.

8. I don't think planted questions in a forum like that is all that sinister. I don't like it,
but I think its pretty typical. It was a campaign event, not a debate or a press conference. I see why it rings bells, but I don't think its fair to say that she is, across the board, a wholly dishonest person because of it.
