Hillary Clinton: To The Best of My Recollection, I Do Not Believe I Have Ever Done Otherwise Than to Have Always Attempted to Endeavor to Avoid Deliberately Lying to You
It's funny when you ask if a congenital liar if she's ever lied.
She's like a trainwreck, if that train was a freight train carrying sixty tons of lies and awkward pauses.
PELLEY: You know, in '76, Jimmy Carter famously said, "I will not lie to you."
CLINTON: Well, I have to tell you I have tried in every way I know how literally from my years as a young lawyer all the way through my time as secretary of state to level with the American people.
PELLEY: You talk about leveling with the American people. Have you always told the truth?
CLINTON: I've always tried to. Always. Always.
PELLEY: Some people are gonna call that wiggle room that you just gave yourself.
CLINTON: Well, no, I’ve always tried --
PELLEY: I mean, Jimmy Carter said, "I will never lie to you."
CLINTON: Well, but, you know, you’re asking me to say, "Have I ever?" I don't believe I ever have. I don't believe I ever have. I don't believe I ever will. I’m gonna do the best I can to level with the American people.
What a great candidate.
