Crossing the Threshold (A how-to guide... revisited)

avatar

By example, 2 recent commander in chiefs and 2 that have crossed the threshold according to Hillary Clinton.

George W. Bush:

"You remember when [Secretary of State] Colin Powell stood up in front of the world, and he said Iraq has got laboratories, mobile labs to build biological weapons....They're illegal. They're against the United Nations resolutions, and we've so far discovered two.* And we'll find more weapons as time goes on, But for those who say we haven't found the banned manufacturing devices or banned weapons, they're wrong. We found them." --WP, "Bush: 'We Found' Banned Weapons. President Cites Trailers in Iraq as Proof, " May 31, 2003

Bill Clinton (From Wikipedia):
During the deposition, Clinton was asked "Have you ever had sexual relations with Monica Lewinsky, as that term is defined in Deposition Exhibit 1, as modified by the Court?" The judge ordered that Clinton be given an opportunity to review the agreed definition. Afterwards, based on the definition created by the Independent Counsel's Office, Clinton answered "I have never had sexual relations with Monica Lewinsky."

McCain:
Mr. McCain said at a news conference in Amman that he continued to be concerned about Iranians “taking Al Qaeda into Iran, training them and sending them back.” Asked about that statement, Mr. McCain said: “Well, it’s common knowledge and has been reported in the media that Al Qaeda is going back into Iran and receiving training and are coming back into Iraq from Iran. That’s well known. And it’s unfortunate.”

And Hillary Clinton:
I certainly do remember that trip to Bosnia... I remember landing under sniper fire.  There was no greeting ceremony. We ran with our heads down... we basically were told to run to our cars.
In summary:  In order for Barack Obama to cross the threshold by summer, he needs to tell a Lie... with confidence and self-righteousness to his own end.

Come on Barack... you can do it!

Where's the link? Show me the evidence please. If he has this is great news... for Hillary.

He lied about Wright. Both his video "I never heard" and "Yes, I heard" are on youtube now.
