MOTHER-DAUGHTER CONFLICT IN CHELSEA CLINTON'S TERROR DAY TALE
DRUDGE REPORT ^ | FRI NOV 09 | DRUDGE

Posted on 11/09/2001 5:21:36 PM PST by Jewels1091

Curious confusion swirls around former first daughter Chelsea Clinton's upcoming essay for TALK magazine describing exactly where she was on Terror Day in New York City.

Breaking her media silence once and for all -- Chelsea writes in great detail about her personal experience on the morning of September 11.

But, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned, her account now sharply conflicts with her mother's version of Chelsea's New York adventure.

Appearing on NBC's DATELINE, Sen. Hillary Clinton told how daughter Chelsea cheated death on that fateful morning.

"She had gone on what she thought would be a great jog," Hillary Clinton explained. "She was going down to Battery Park, she was going to go around the towers. She was going to get a cup of coffee and - that's when the plane hit!"

Hillary's dramatic story about her daughter's close call with the Twin Towers became a media sensation.

"At that moment, she was not just a Senator, but a concerned parent," TODAY show's Katie Couric told viewers.

But now, in her own words, Chelsea does not mention a jog. Does not mention her plans to go to Battery Park, around the towers -- only to be stopped by a coffee break.

In fact, Chelsea writes that she was at her friend's apartment on Park Avenue South -- miles from Ground Zero -- when she learned of the attacks!

"I stared senselessly at the television," Chelsea writes.

Calls to Senator Clinton went unreturned on Friday.

Isn't there a medical term for one who embelishes a story for attention?

Of course she lies. She's never been held accountable for lying. In fact, lying made her defacto President, and now a US Senator.

The "truth" has always been a matter of convenience to Senator Clinton.

The worst thing (OK # 457 of 2000) about the Clintons is that they lie when there is no reason to. They just cannot tell the truth.

Is katie couric so genuinely stupid that she will be the last person in America to recognize hitlery klinton for the 'smallish, mean-spirited, creep' she really is? I mean-this is Hitlery USING her daughter for publicity on the BACKS of the REAL VICTEMS of Sept 11th.

And I can see katic couric saying the words...concerned parent. Oh gag me with a stick!

okay. she's a clinton. one clinton says she was in the shadow of the wtc. she says she was on park avenue south. from which we can deduce only that she was not near the wtc or on park avenue south.

Hillary's story must have changed then because I heard her say Chelsea was at a friends house. (not to be a Hillary defender....she's a mean, lying, creepy lady)

Hillary is not lying. She has never consciously lied in her life. Reflexively, perhaps, much as dog may suddenly throw up, and of course, like that same dog, immediately eats the issue, therefore it didn't happen.

But Hillary is pretty keen on revising the scope of statements, and there is that troublesome little thing about not keeping a timeline straight. Chelsea MIGHT have been jogging in that area that morning, and she MIGHT have even been in close proximity to the WTC, but reality intruded. There is no credible evidence that Chelsea EVER took that route while jogging.

Chelsea has never been a daughter in her parents' eyes; she has always been nothing but a crutch, a prop, or an excuse.

The next thing you know, they will be saying that Chelsea was to be on one of the flights that crashed into the Trade Center, but was just minutes late because she was volunteering at a soup kitchen.

No. That is when a mother intentionally makes her child ill for attention.

Katie knew hillary was lying. Katie was actively helping hillary lie. The RAT media will do anything to help a fellow RAT.

"I stared senselessly at the television," Chelsea writes.

Just like I did for eight years whenever her dad came on the screen.
