Clinton caught lying about Obama attack!!!

Clinton, in remarks to the ABC affiliate in Honolulu that were reported by the Chicago Tribune, asserted: “Look, it’s not us making this charge. It’s the media.”

But on Monday, the Clinton campaign announced a conference call “to discuss a recent speech delivered by Sen. Obama” and included a YouTube link that showed Obama remarks side by side with similar comments by his friend, Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick.

On the call, Howard Wolfson, the campaign’s communications director, said: “When an author plagiarizes from another author there is damage done to two different parties. One is to the person he plagiarized from. The other is to the reader.”

Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton said in an e-mailed statement: "Senator Clinton knows full well that her campaign held a conference call with reporters to fan these flames and the fact that she suggested her campaign had nothing to do with it is exactly the kind of evasive tactic voters are rejecting."....

So, she accuses him of plagiarism in a conference call with the media... the media asks her why she is making the charge.... then she claims that it was the media and not her...

Regardless of the ridiculous charge of plagerism...(I swear to GOD that Hillary has speech writers) anyway... regardless of the charges why is she LYING about bringing the controversy to the media. DO WE WANT A DEMOCRAT IN THE WHITE HOUSE THAT LIES TO THE MEDIA?

I have had enough of this.
