Truthiness revealed

Clinton's tale part truth, part errors - Yahoo! News

I think it's official, though, that "truthiness" isn't a real word, but it really seems to accurately describe what Clinton seems to be doing in her speeches. She's got caught again with "embellishing" the "truth" to the point that it becomes an outright fabrication. Not too long ago, she was discussing how brave she was exiting a chopper under sniper fire in Bosnia when absolutely nothing of the sort even came close to happening. Now, she is being dinged AGAIN with a story about a pregnant woman who was denied care multiple times because she had no health insurance.

The woman whom Clinton was discussing had indeed died and had a stillborn child, but after she was identified by the Washington Post, something that Clinton failed to do, or actually did but decided to continue the lie hoping no one would find out, the hospital acknowledged the case but said that she was never denied care and even had health insurance at the time of her death.

Thing is, she's clinged onto a story that, if it actually occurred, would cause such an uproar in the medical community that we would still be hearing about it. Hospitals do not deny care to those in need. They never have. Hospitals may be businesses and run in rather insane ways, but they are run by doctors. All doctors have the same moral compunctions to aid those who need care. Money be damned. They may lose money, but they've saved a life. That's really what they care about. Clinton's story didn't even hold water on its face.

It's quickly becoming apparent that the only way that she could possibly win the nomination is if she pulls all the crony strings she can pull within her own party and have almost all the superdelegates vote for her, as well as poach the pledged delegates that are going for Obama.
