Thank you for the courage to share your story. It is clear it still causes you much pain. Try to remember that God sees past all lies, and no one escapes His justice. His peace be with you.

There was a line from a Paul Shanklin parody, “I can’t remember, my mind’s in a blender...”

Rush played it on several occasions.

A person can’t be proven later on by investigators to have lied if they insert a convenient lapse of memory at the appropriate time during an interview.

Tell that to Scooter Libby.

you Beat me to it

Mr. Fitzgerald nonetheless pressed on for someone to prosecute, eventually focusing on Mr. Libby, whose trial became a contest of recollections.

“Gotta wonder how these “excuses” benefit her campaign......”

She has to answer written questions from Judicial Watch
and I’m sure what all of the answers will be.
Hope they can post her replies.

But Hillary’s no dummy, she’s a trained lawyer so she simply resorts to ‘strategically invoked lapses of memory’ when confronted with particularly troublesome facts.

The term for such wilful and deceptive feigned ignorance is Plausible Deniability.

If Hillary learned nothing else from law school and one suspects later from trying to fry Nixon, plausible deniability is as good as taking the fifth, but plays much better with passively informed voters.

The “I don’t remember defense” is something that Hillary perfected during the 90s when she was under oath on various scandals that have been lumped together as “Whitewater”. She used this phrase or a variation over 250 times during that testimony.

Other prominent Democrats use it too. Former Attorney General Eric Holder blunted the investigation on the Obama administration “Fast and Furious” gunrunning to Mexican drug cartels by using the “IDR defense” in testimony before Congress.

As a defense to any questioning, it is impervious to any serious investigation quedtioning, since we don’t use any mechanical devices to see if someone is lying and have to give the “testilying” person the benefit of the doubt.
It is a lawyer’s invention to allow a culprit to escape “taking the 5th” which has become rooted in the public’s mind as a way for criminals to protect themselves from self-incrimination while under oath about their crimes.

I doubt Hillary ever thought that the interview notes would be released. But everyone should remember that she has gone to this defense of complete brain paralysis many times before.

"grandma pickles"

While making a sandwich today, Mrs. RWA said in an exasperated voice, "Where is Hillary Clinton when you need her?"

She couldn't get the mayo jar open.
