Shoutfest Aftermath.
Base10 watched Hillary Clinton on Fox News Sunday when she appeared with Lindsey Graham and they both just reeked of bipartisan good feelings. Toward the end of the broadcast, Chris Wallace congratulated the former First Lady on her first appearance on Fox News Sunday, but also reminded her that Lindsey Graham was one of her husband's prosecutors and asked her about her characterization of the Republican's at the time to have been in a "vast right-wing conspiracy." Mrs. Clinton first joked that she was "sitting right in the middle of it" but then made some remarks Base10 felt were very telling. She words to the effect that she didn't want to be overly confrontational and that all politicians have to put on their "political hats" sometimes. The implication, which should have been followed up by Mr. Wallace, is that Mrs. Clinton spoke blatant falsehoods during the impeachment period, and did so for base political reasons. (Remember, accusing someone of conspiracy with no evidence or other basis merely to get your weasel of a husband off the hook is about as base as you can get). Click here for the transcript.
