Hillary Clinton trotted out her famous line:"vast right wing conspiracy" in New Hampshire this week. Opinion Journal's Best of the Web Today reminds us of the last time Mrs. Clinton used that phrase.
It was at the height of the Monica Lewinsky scandal on Jan. 27, 1998 with an appearance by Hillary on the "Today" show. After insisting that the entire scandal was nothing more than a political attack on her husband she added: "Well, I think that--if all that were proven true, I think that would be a very serious offense. That is not going to be proven true."
That of course was BEFORE the blue dress surfaced.
You would think that reminding people of that scandal, and her role in it, would be something Hillary would want to avoid. But we're dealing with an individual who redefines reality to suit her purposes.
I'm also reminded of this Hillary quote from June 2005 at a New York City fundraiser: "It’s very hard to stop people who have no shame about what they’re doing....It is very hard to stop people who have never been acquainted with the truth."
It may be difficult to stop people who lie so easily, like Mrs. C., But we sure are gonna try!
