Did Hillary lie when she said regarding Goldman fees: "That's what they offered"?
This comes from Yves at Naked Capitalism. Did they offer her the money or was that her standard fee? Sounds like maybe it was just her standard fee.

She typically delivered an address, then answered questions from a pre-vetted interviewer. Her standard fee was $225,000, though occasionally it could range up to $400,000.
"That's what they offered," said Clinton, when asked this week whether her fees were too high.
Clinton defended her appearances Friday, saying she thought the speeches were "a good way to communicate" and answer questions about her experience as secretary of state.
"It was a useful exercise for me, because it also enabled me to think through, kind of, where I was in the assessment of what I would do next," Clinton told MSNBC.
