Howie Carr of the Boston Herald takes Hillary Clinton to task for questionable claims that characterized her latest commencement speech.
Hillary Rodham Clinton, Class of ’69, returned to Wellesley College [Friday] and told the new graduates with a straight face, “You are graduating at a time when there is a full-fledged assault on truth and reason.”
Folks, you can’t make this stuff up. Hillary Clinton, lecturing the youth of America about the dangers of lying, and pointing the finger … at somebody else.
She accused President Trump of proposing a budget that was a “lie. Let’s call it what it is. It’s a con.”
Like, say, the Clinton Foundation?
“They don’t even try to hide it. Why does all this matter? It matters because if our leaders lie about the problems we face, we’ll never solve them.”
Where to begin?
This is the same woman who claimed that she was under sniper fire in Tuzla, that she was named after Sir Edmund Hillary (five years before anyone ever heard of him), who said all four of her grandparents were immigrants (it was one), who claimed she was “dead broke” when she left the White House.
This is the woman who said she’d never endorsed the Trans-Pacific Partnership, who tried to enlist in the Marines in ’75, who swore her server wasn’t hacked and she was never subpoenaed (Trey Gowdy called her out on that one), who compared herself to Honest Abe Lincoln, who said Chelsea Clinton was downtown on 9/11 …
“When people in power invent their own facts,” said the world-class fact-inventor, “and attack those who question them, it can mark the beginning of the end of a free society.”
She just can’t help herself.
