PELOSI LETTER PROVES HILLARY SHOULDN'T BE PRESIDENT
Hillary Campaign: We Didn't Know What Was In Donors' Letter To Pelosi
I'm happy to believe Phil Singer that they were told that something was being sent but they didn't know what.
But what I'm not willing to accept is this: A President, who, in the middle of the most important political moment of her life, doesn't bother to ask her supporters what is in a letter to the 3rd highest ranking politician in the nation.
A President is supposed to be a strategizer, a planner and a manager. Yet, Clinton and the people she has chosen to surround her, were aware of a letter, but didn't think to ask what was in it? Come on! She can't lead a campaign, how can she lead a country?

Sort of like being too sleep deprived on 3 separate occasions to get the Bosnia story straight, but still being the president you'd want answering a 3AM call?
And if she botched the call, I suppose she'd brush it off saying - "well, you know, it just proves I'm human."

Well, maybe she should become a community organizer (ie motivational speaker) so that she will then be qualified to run the country like Barry?

Maybe she should have developed some leadership skills so that she could run an organization that can win a cacus. That certainly would have helped her chances.

O you can bet Hillary asked and her advisors told her.
The problem is that it was a 'big picture' letter and Hillary is unable to process 'big picture' information as that requires far greater powers of deductive reasoning and intellectual prowess.
Hillary is a detail person and she is data driven not process driven. Which is why she is a terrible manager of massive issues, such as the war, healthcare and the economy.
Hillary constantly gets bogged down in the minutiae and details...she can't see the forest for the trees.
Which is why she lacks leadership skills and relies muchmoreso on loyalty and her power to manage problems. She is a powermongerer who does not understand that power cows people and makes them less likely to adhere to the program and far less likely to convey when she is in trouble.
That's why she is making all these errors and misspeaking. Her campaign gets it, she doesn't because they lack the courage to tell her how she is failing and failing badly as she responds with lots of wonky details to refute the 'big picture' they paint.
Think about it. If Hillary got the big picture she wouldn't still be with Bill. If Hillary got the big picture she wouldn't talk about how you get to choose your church but not your family because she would know that folks think ...and you get to choose your spouse too...everytime she says it.

Oh, they knew. I bet she had a soft little smile and a little laugh when she said she didn't know. She can sometimes tell a very pretty lie, i.e. St. Paddy's day and the detailed Bosnia story that turns out to be true but it was another woman who had the experience and Hill lifted it.

Well, she knew what the letter contained. They all knew.
It is not that they are lying, no. They are misspeasking, as far as I know.
She has ruined her credibility for good. The whole country has seen how she misspeaks repeatedly while smiling and "recalling" precise and specific details.
No wonder most now question everything she says while smiling and "recalling" precise and specific details. She is done.

She lied again, simple as that. There is nothing BUT LIES that take place when her mouth moves. Its only about saying what you need to say in the moment with her...nothing else.

Why would she read the letter sent to Pelosi?
She didn't read the pre-War NIE. Why would she read some silly old letter?

Enough with the all-caps titles already. It lessens your credibility to the level of the National Enquirer.
Save the all-caps for appropriate titles like:
