LIE OF THE WEEK: 11-09-2007

Former President Bill Clinton on his wife's failed health-care plan in 1993:

"She has taken the rap for some of the problems with health care the last time that were far more my fault than hers."

THE TRUTH: When President Clinton was running for office in 1992, he assured the majority of Americans (who are conservatives) that he was his own man and that Hillary wouldn't be his "co-president." When he later assigned her control of his administration's universal health care proposal, he very gladly disavowed any personal political responsibility for it's failure. Now that the shoe is on the other foot and Hillary is claiming her "executive experience" as First Lady as qualifying her for the presidency, Bill is rushing in to take responsibility for the complete failure of their proposal. As we all know the Clintons have no sense of any ethics in taking responsibility for their actions, no one should believe this attempt to take away the proper blame for the rightful failure of a policy that would have been disastrous if ever enacted.
