Clinton touted "Not Bitter" endorsement in Montana; unconnected to Obama "Bitter"
If it's true - it's Fox.

Just when did Montana politico Bill Kennedy decide to endorse Hillary Clinton?

The Clinton campaign has suggested the Yellowstone County commissioner picked Clinton only after he heard Barack Obama’s now famous “bitter” comments. But Kennedy told FOX News on Tuesday that he decided on Clinton long before that.

“I had been leaning toward Hillary for months,” Kennedy said. “I actually decided to endorse her two weeks ago.”

The timeline dispute could prove embarrassing for the Clinton campaign, which for days, has been doing everything it can to exploit the April 6 comments and paint Obama as elitist.

“In Montana, going to church or going hunting is part of our heritage, not something we ‘cling to’ out of bitterness or frustration,” he said in a statement distributed to media in-boxes around the nation.

The story quickly went out over the wires and got picked up in newspapers across the country.

In an interview with FOX News, Kennedy said he decided to endorse Clinton on April 5, a week before Obama’s comments surfaced.

2. Just more lies I don't expect anything less
It's actually quite amusing especially when her usual suspects on DU don't admit to her lies
Sometimes I wish Obama was a traditional politician and have ads slamming her about the lies but I guess that's what we get when we get a candidate with integrity

3. Going to Church and "Clinging" To Religion Are Two Different Things
Certainly voting based solely on the 2nd amendment and gay marriage is a somewhat different conversation than living a deeply spiritual life.
