In an interview yesterday, Hillary -- whose connection to President Clinton's 2001 sentence commutations for two members of the Weather Underground has become an issue since she tried to raise questions about Obama's acquaintance with another ex-Weatherman -- told "Inside Edition" that she "didn't know anything about" the 2001 clemency case.

You can watch the video below. If it's true, it means that she got the worst briefings in the world when she was running for Senate in 2000 and the clemency issue was hot in Rockland County, and it means that Chuck Schumer didn't even bother to mention the issue to his fellow NY senator-elect/ First Lady after promising the widows of two dead cops to fight against one of the clemencies.

25. Nice one...

you magnificent bastard!

Got me laughing at a good time.

[JKaiser]

2. Yeah, and obama didn't know about what Rev. Wright was preaching...

[cosmicsheep]

16. He never said that..

...but that's OK, 'cause obviously your supporting Clinton, and in Clinton-land facts are flexible and malleable.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

17. Yeah, and Clinton knew what Richard Mellon Scaife was saying about her all those years

Yet still chose to seek out and accept an endorsement from him.

3. I can't wait for some Hillary supporter to vouch for Hillary on this ..

The woman will say or do anything.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

18. They just did above you: "REVEREND WRIGHT!!!1!!!"

[Dr Fate]

4. LOL! So she knows more about Obama than she knows about her own "experience." LOL!

5. Well, we sure know that BO knows all about Mr. Ayers,alot about him.

[powergirl]

9. I'll be you dollars to donuts that Sen. Clinton wished she never

mentioned this one.

[Mags]

23. same bet here about BO hanging out with him.

[Goblinmonger]

26. Let's see

being on a board with someone from the Underground and even "hanging out" with them 40 years later vs pardoning them. Yep, those are the same.

[Mags]

27. no , it is worse for the big BO. watch and see what will happen before this is ove.

[powergirl]

28. Again, I say, I will bet you dollars, many of them, that HRC wishes she never mentioned this

Notice she hasn't talked about it anymore in her campaign. Does she have it up on her website? Is she not proud of this? Let me know and I'll be waiting. :popcorn:

7. Karma's a bitch

She shouldn't have pounced on this nonsense in the first place b/c it is far more damaging to her than Obama. Way to Go! :applause:

[bowens43]

8. seems she missed a LOT

of what went on in the oval office.....

[cosmicsheep]

10. she only "knows" or "remembers" what helps her

foggy memory on the rest (remember her response about 39 debates ago to the question about Ross Perot predicting that Nafta would be terrible for USA while debating Bill?
She said, in effect, oh...all I remember is a bunch of charts and graphs and stuff, she is SOOOOO funny!)

[antigop]

14. welcome to DU! n/t

[pdxmom]

11. Based on past actions, I'd guess she is lying again. N/T

[ClayZ]

12. Lol

:rofl:

[SoCalDem]

13. sure.. and she also claimed to not know about her BROTHERS' pardon schemes

BUT she wants us to believe that she ran the whole show and Bill was HER assistant :rofl:

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

15. Lier + Clinton = redundant

[tridim]

19. Thank gawd I wont have to vote for her lying ass in the GE.

I wish I could recommend that huge thread from yesterday again.

[zulchzulu]

20. She may not have been talking to him at the time due to Monicagate

She was a scorned wife at the time.

[asjr]

21. After the Lewinsky fiasco I suppose

Bill thought it best to keep his mouth shut around Hillary.

[BattyDem]

22. Sorry Hillary ... you can't have it both ways

Everything "good" to come out of the Clinton WH: you claim to have been a part of it, even though you didn't have security clearance and you didn't sit in on cabinet meetings.

Everything "bad" to come out of the Clinton WH: you claim that not only did you have nothing to do with it, but you disagreed completely and in some cases, didn't have a freakin' clue what was going on.

If you're going to run on Bill's record and take credit for his WH accomplishments, than you also have to take responsibility for his WH mistakes!

24. Is this while she was gaining soooooo much experience?

:rofl:
