One wouldn't think Hillary Clinton and former President Richard Nixon would have a lot in common, but in responding to FBI investigators that she "could not recall any briefing or training by State related to retention of federal records or handling classified information," Clinton took a page straight out of Nixon's playbook.
In a March 23, 1973 meeting with top aides Bob Haldeman and John Dean to discuss what Dean should say during testimony before a grand jury looking into the Watergate affair, the following exchange took place.
Haldeman: "You can say you have forgotten, can't you?"
Dean: "Sure, but you are chancing a very high risk for a perjury situation."
Nixon: "But you can say I don't remember. You can say I don't recall..."
Thirty-nine times by CNN's count, Hillary Clinton invoked Nixon's advice in her response to questions from FBI investigators. No wonder. The things she might recall could be contradictory to statements she has made in the past.
The Weekly Standard has chronicled a few of them in an editorial titled "Absolute, Categorical Lies." They are too numerous to list here, but worth reading.
Clinton also claimed to have used two devices for her emails, one for work, the other personal. According to The Hill, in the just released report on Clinton's emails, the FBI identified 13 mobile devices "that were potentially used to send emails via clintonemail.com." In addition, writes Bloomberg Politics, the FBI "cited five iPads it sought as part of the probe that were 'potentially' used to send private e-mails." The FBI found three. No one knows what happened to the other two. Maybe someone should dig up Sidney Blumenthal's backyard?
You can almost smell the corruption.
In the age of reality TV, speculation is now considered almost as good as fact, so suppose Hillary Clinton really can't recall? What if there is a medical explanation for her impaired memory?
Hillary Clinton fell and suffered a concussion in December 2012, which husband Bill said took "six months of very serious work to get over." The State Department claimed the recovery period was much shorter. Who do we believe? Hillary Clinton admitted to having a blood clot and double vision and to taking blood thinners. Her doctors, however, insist she's fit to be president. Is there anything else? With the Clintons the question answers itself.
WebMD.com has some useful information: "A mild or moderate concussion may have longer-lasting consequences than previously realized, a new study suggests.
"By comparing brain imaging studies and thinking tests between healthy people and those with relatively minor concussions, the researchers found that the recovery of thinking skills can take a long time...
"Initially, those with concussions had thinking and memory test scores that were 25 percent lower than those in healthy people. One year after injury, however, while the scores for those with and without concussions were similar, those who had had brain injuries still had evidence of brain damage on imaging tests, with clear signs of continued disruption to key brain cells.
"The findings are especially important because 90 percent of all traumatic brain injuries are mild to moderate, said Andrew Blamire, senior author of the study and professor of magnetic resonance physics at Newcastle University, in the United Kingdom."
Is Hillary Clinton's memory loss the result of her concussion, or is she lying? I'm more inclined to believe the latter, as the Clintons' dissembling precedes her injury. An examination by a neurologist would answer one question. The other will have to be determined by voters.
But considering what happened to Nixon, Hillary Clinton might not one to pattern herself after him.
Hillary is a corrupt, lying, sick old crook who accepts bribes and betrays our country. Everything in that sentence is well documented. She lies even when the truth would serve her better. Everything she says or does must be treated with the utmost suspicion.
Hillary was using that same Nixonian hand gesture at the CIC Forum as she regurgitated her lies about her e-mails.
I was 13/14 years old during Watergate and Nixon’s resignation. I know he breached public trust—yet, by today’s standards, he was a GREAT MAN!!!
Watergate did NOT KILL anybody and he had the good grace to leave office.
Hildabeast refuses to accept any responsibility for the deaths at Benghazi and for putting our entire national security at risk with her email fiascos!!!
What’s worse of all, is that she is not being held accountable and will never put the good of the country first and step aside.
I seethe, knowing that she sat in judgment of Nixon as a young lawyer!!!
CAUGHT! Hillary Wore Earpiece Radio Receiver During Live TV Townhall Event; Needed words fed to her to answer questions!

SuperStation95 in New York City has confirmed with our sources in the NYPD, that Clinton was using a very expensive earpiece receiver to receive stealth communications from her campaign handlers during Wednesday’s Presidential Forum carried live on NBC.
While Clinton was fielding questions from NBC’s Matt Lauer and the public Wednesday night on live television, a quiet buzz started circulating in New York law enforcement circles about Hillary’s left ear. NYPD sources confirm Clinton was wearing an ‘inductive earpiece,” the same technology employed by almost all lead Broadway actors to receive forgotten lines and stealth off-stage cues from directors.
The skin-tone piece Clinton was wearing, however, was somewhat different from the standard issued stealth earpiece and is much different in appearance from a hearing aid. This unit is considered a “micro” earbud which contains all the technology but is a fraction of the size with a very high price tag. In fact, most of the units this size, approximately 3mm or comparable to a small pearl stud earring, are normally issued to law enforcement or corporate security teams, sources said.
Ironically, the revelation that Clinton was wearing such a unit might have only been recognized because of astute NYPD officers attached to her security details who are accustomed to seeing the stealth apparatus at stage shows and security personnel of VIPs and international dignitaries at the United nations and elsewhere in the five boroughs. Likewise, NYPD detectives employ a parallel technology to communicate during undercover Ops.
Based on experts familiar with the technology, the stealth earpiece operates on a bandwidth from 300 Hz to 4KHz. Many such units are powered by SONY. The range of the unit can be unlimited depending on how the back end is set up. Technically, you could receive cues from 100 feet away or someone sitting in Washington D.C., experts said. The set up and range is flexible based on need and use.
Story is Developing. We Will update it more as we receive additional details. Once again, Hillary is caught CHEATING her way toward the White House.

The only things President Nixon and Hillary have in common is that they both used the phrase "I don't remember".
Any other comparison is ridiculous and insulting to President Nixon to who unlike Hillary put the country above himself.
Excellent point, especially the part that Richard Nixon put the country above himself, unlike Hillary Rotten Clinton

Where does it say that actually said I don't remember or I don't recall, other than to Haldeman and Dean, which looks like a private conversation, unlike Hillary Rotten Clinton who said it in front of the investigating committee.
