a monster liar.

caught in the Bosnia lie, "Hillary says, she mis-spoke, she was sleep-deprived, occasionally I'm human."

so sleep deprived eh. How about the 3:00 AM phone call?

"Oh Bill, it's for you"

Well, "You can't vote for war and disown the results"

Sleep-deprived my fat, black ass...she's been telling that story in the exact same way since December.  She told it in Iowa for goodness sakes.  Why can't she stop lying?

And you make a great point regarding that 3am phone call.  If this is what she does "sleep-deprived" on a campaign stop, what the hell will she say as POTUS at 3am?

wrote about  it in her book too.

recall, it has always been a co-presidency, she'll pass the phone to Bill.

but this little nugget confirms Hillary has been planning to run for office/president way back at least 1996.

Politico: Bosnian ex-acting president Ejup Ganic who greeted Hillary:

"By talking to the first lady, I was under the impression that she had an agenda for her own advancement and I am not surprised of her desire to win the current elections."

Well, "You can't vote for war and disown the results"
