News Anchor Brian Williams ........well, he's a liar

So what do you say about Hillary's big self serving lie about hitting the ground under sniper fire in Bosnia? Presidential material or not? What if she had a second big self serving lie? Originally Posted by JD Barleycorn

Back on topic: word is there is a certain TV anchor who will be discussing more war stories.

Noncombatants tend to embellish their experiences.

My fight with the military was over one item. I was not "awarded" a CIB, or combat infrantry badge. The reason? My MOS was not 11B, and I was not assigned to a Infrantry Battalion.

It made no difference that I got my legs damned near blown off while doing my job, they did not look at it my way. That " trip wire" was very nondesciminating.

To veterans, especially Vietnam Verterans, the CIB is the most recognizable badge of your service. But few people realize that even clerks assigned to Infrantry Batallions could receive one, and wear it, just like the guy out in the field.

Thanks for your service, Jackie! My family and I appreciate it!

This thread has been about lying. Lies that promote someone for a position of responsibility. I think Hillary fits here since she has already been annointed by the Democrat party for president. However, I understand if no one wants to talk about her and the lie.

Ok, how is this. "Hillary Clinton is a lying piece of shit whose only claim to fame is being married to the only President who is DOCUMENTED to have gotten a blow job in the Oval Office".

Not saying he is the only Presidnt to get a knob job under the desk, just the only one that was PROVEN to have.

latest word is Williams is stepping aside from the news anchor job for a while. Will have to see if it is permanent .

"Corpse floating face down in the French Quarter".

There was no flooding in the French Quarter. There were also no rampaging gangs taking over 5 Star Hotels. And if he had dysentery, he was the ONLY person it seems that did.

Maybe he is just a pathological liar. In that case, his condition can be treated in any high dollar rehab. He comes out cured, .........and resumes his $10,000,000 a year career.

Yah those guys just don't have the integrity of Richard Nixon or Sprio Agnew Originally Posted by i'va biggen

Fiunny.. both of those were run out of office/forced to resign.

Not the 5 democrats cited however.

Any idea why Eva?

I still get ticked off my his promo about 9/11. We saw the plane hit the second tower and BY THE END OF THE DAY we knew we were at war. What took him so long on that day?

Lied about braving sniper fire in Bosnia. An uneventful landing. A complete lie.
Lied about being in Cambodia in Christmas of 1968 and blamed Richard Nixon who had not yet taken office.
Lied about being a special forces, Vietnam soldier and a POW. He was in the Marine reserve and never went to Vietnam.
Lied about being in a shot down helicopter and hearing the bullets hitting the air frame. Was in another helicopter that was not shot at.
Lied about being a US Navy SEAL for 20 years. Washed out.
Served in the army but not in the special forces like he claimed for years.
In his seven months of military service he flew to Australia, his plane got lost, he got the Silver Star and returned in time to win his old congressional seat in a special election.

Seven democrats, seven liars....is this a trend? Originally Posted by JD Barleycorn

AP has since corroborated this story. There was flooding in the french quarter, seen pics of it. As for Williams, he's still lying about the chopper incident and should be fired. But let's try to improve on his job of getting things right.

[D]oubters have noted correctly that the Quarter, New Orleans’ original high ground, remained largely if not completely dry, photographs and news reports from the time indicate there was flooding around the Ritz-Carlton, where the network source confirmed Williams stayed.

The hotel is located on Canal Street between Burgundy and Dauphine streets — technically just outside the Quarter, which is bounded by Esplanade Avenue, the Mississippi River, and Iberville and North Rampart streets. But most residents consider the downriver side of Canal Street, where the hotel is located, part of the Quarter. (source)

You believed Chuck Johnson? Seriously? He's one of the biggest right-wing nuts out there. Looks like he did a little lying of his own.
