That was a well written piece and covers the material well, but the one thing that REALLY annoys me about Clinton was not mentioned in the story - the running for cover under sniper fire in Iraq lie.
It's covered here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/fact...in-bosnia/
Listening to her tell that FALSE story reminds of everything I hate about politicians in general. The way she so easily tells this lie defeats a lot of her good work in my eye.
But even given that, I supported her over Sanders and WAY over Trump.
30 years of words coming out of her mouth, and this sticks? How 'bout focusing on what she's done well and good and how many people are better off simply because of her work and determination.
Think about it. If she purposefully lied about this. The fact that these people took God knows how many man-hours to determine that this throwaway statement was a "lie" is stupid. Who knows what was going on in her head anyway. They want to try to think as if they channeled her mentally. If this is a smoking-gun then where is the list of other lies?
This is an exceptional, honest woman that doesn't deserve even slightly this kind of judgement. Though I respect your feelings about it Hal as that's your right and you're a discerning person.
