1. Millions of words every week (or day)

to get to 2 million words a week she has to be constantly speaking at 5 words per second for every waking hour... 16 hours a day, for the entire 7 days...

5 words per second.

To do millions of words per day (as she stated earlier) she would have to do about 35 words per second.

2. 5 to 35 words per second

is nothing once you have crossed the Commander in Chief threshold .

That's what they tell me. Don't know if it's true.

5. So what you'll saying is, she

lying again. Poor Hillary...I remember Slick Willie wanted to punch out a William Safire for calling her a habitual lier. I guess old Safire was correct.

6. Quite a statement coming from a Nixon speechwriter,

i.e. a well-paid professional liar.

8. No, this was a perfect example of mis-speaking...

and exaggeration...

The whole Bosnia trip was lying.

3. Lighten up, huh?

This whole thing is so embarrassing. There is a serious pattern to the falsehoods. My theory is that she was trying to keep up with the "hero" factor with John McCain. It truly appears that she has become delusional

[MindMatter]

4. Let's recall the context

She launched on this month-long aggressive lying campaign (that only ended a full week after the MSM aired and kept airing the videos until she stopped lying) as part of her "kitchen sink" attack. The central message of the kitchen sink attack was that McCain was a hero and heavily experienced in foreign policy, and that she couldn't carry McCain's jock, but she was a whole lot more experienced than the black guy -- what's his name -- you know, the one that might be Muslim -- and I sure wouldn't have his preacher.

The lying was a deliberate part of the strategy to create a story about her experience. She went to the well dozens of times for that Bosnia story, which she apparently thought was the best evidence of her statesman role as First Lady.

She didn't just stumble on this story and misspeak. She grabbed that story and put it out there as part of an overall assault on Obama.

The word we're looking for is duplicity, or maybe disingenuous, or maybe untrustworthy.

7. That's her stories and she's stickin' to 'em!

9. Does she not remember Gore in 2000?

The press will pretend a Democrat is lying whether they are or not. To actually lie after that is amazing.
