Because her lips are moving

Posted December 20th, 2007 at 10:14 PM by Jon Ham

That’s how you can tell Hillary is lying about health insurance for National Guardsmen and Reservists. She claims in a new ad that they didn’t have it before she helped get it for them, but FactCheck.org says, “Not so fast, Gonzalez”:

Clinton would have been correct to say “some didn’t” have health insurance. She even would be justified in saying that, before her efforts, guardsmen and reservists “didn’t have adequate health insurance.” That’s an opinion with which many would agree. But by falsely claiming that “they didn’t” have health insurance, she gives herself more credit than the facts support.

FactCheck.org calls the ad “misleading.” That’s one way of putting it. I wonder what FactCheck.org would consider an actual falsehood. Here’s the Hillary ad if you’re interested.
