I set the Wayback Machine to January 27, 1998, and Mrs. Clinton on the Today Show:
“Well, I don’t know if I’ve been that dramatic. That would sound like a good line from a movie. But I do believe that this is a battle. I mean, look at the very people who are involved in this — they have popped up in other settings. This is — the great story here for anybody willing to find it and write about it and explain it is this vast right-wing conspiracy that has been conspiring against my husband since the day he announced for president.”
Eighteen years ago Mrs. Clinton adopted the phrase “vast right wing conspiracy” in an vain attempt to convince the public that her husband, B.J. Clinton did not have an affair with his intern Monica Lewinsky. Lucky for Miss Lewinsky she saved her soiled blue dress, and the rest is history.
Flash forward, the Clintonistas are still played the same VRWC card, from Jack Heretik, Washington Free Beacon:
Hillary Clinton press secretary Brian Fallon on Thursday accused the State Department Inspector General’s office of launching baseless fishing expeditions aimed at harming Clinton’s campaign.
CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer asked Fallon about a Washington Post report that the State Department issued a subpoena to the Clinton Foundation, the Clinton family’s charity, for documents about projects that needed federal government approval while Hillary Clinton was secretary of state. This included records from Clinton’s controversial aide, Huma Abedin.
[…]
Fallon didn’t walk back his allegation when pressed by Blitzer, who pointed out that State Department Inspector General Steve Linick was handpicked by President Obama and confirmed by a Democratic-controlled Senate in 2013.
“So you say this fishing expedition or whatever you’re calling it, that there’s sort of a plot inside the inspector general’s office in the State Department, to get Hillary Clinton?” Blitzer asked.
“All I know is they have mounted several different fishing expedition-style investigations since she decided to run for president,” Fallon said. “There’s no basis to any of them and it is intended to create headwinds for her campaign. It is not going to work.”
Maybe Mrs. Clinton can forward a message to Dirty Harry Reid on why and how he allowed Steve Linick to be confirmed an Inspector General for the Obama regime State Department?
In the meantime Mrs. Clinton, find a new excuse!
