Let me educate you DanTex....a lie is when you say you experienced sniper fire..... virtualobserver Mar 2016 #22

The opposite. When you make a mistake in recollection, it's not a lie. DanTex Mar 2016 #24

What is it called when you continuously make mistakes in recollection? eShirl Mar 2016 #34

When you live decades of your life in front of a camera, every little mistake you make is recorded. DanTex Mar 2016 #36

Of course Hillary's behavior and words over so many years mean nothing- marew Mar 2016 #140

The thing is, there's nothing there. She said "dead broke" instead of "in a lot of debt". DanTex Mar 2016 #142

Meh, people make mistakes all the time. She's lived decades of her life on camera. DanTex Mar 2016 #38

They were not mistakes....they were invented in order to woo voters virtualobserver Mar 2016 #41

Of course they weren't invented. They were mistakes. DanTex Mar 2016 #43

why do you even bother to push this nonsense? Republicans would rip her to shreds with this. virtualobserver Mar 2016 #48

Because I'm right. Sure, the GOP will try to rip her to shreds. They've tried that for decades. DanTex Mar 2016 #53

I did both. The substance is easily on my side here. DanTex Mar 2016 #146

Anti-Hillary spam is not the answer to everything. Bernie's whole campaign is based on R B Garr Mar 2016 #147
