9. On the subject of bald faced lies
It is the height of irony to read a post dedicated to what a liar Clinton is when the author is a big fact liar. Hillary was a Yankee fan. It was reported on, well before she ran for Senate from New York, as far back as 1992. As any sports fan can tell you, if you root for a national league team (the Cubs) in a city with an American league team (the Sox) you pick an American league team to root for as well (the Yankees were both famous and good in her youth). It isn't a lie by her but a lie by the press that has been endlessly repeated by liars like the author.

She didn't say Chelsea was jogging around the trade center she said SHE HAD THOUGHT CHELSEA WAS GOING TO JOG AROUND THE CENTER but that Chelsea had decided not to. It is on tape for christ's sake. She didn't say she was named after Sir Edmund Hillary but that her MOTHER TOLD HER she had been named after Sir Edmund Hillary. I was told, for years, that my uncle had died of cancer (he died when I was about 6). I only found out years later that he had died of his addiction. I repeated the cancer story for years. That doesn't make me a liar.

Of course, under Clinton rules, lies about her aren't lies at all.
