WBSM: From The New Bedford Standard Times April 17, 2015 in an article by Steve Urbon:
The idealistic young woman with the long hair and huge eyeglasses had just graduated from Yale Law School, the future holding nothing but potential. But instead of shipping off to a New York or Washington law firm, she joined Marian Wright Edelman’s fledgling Children’s Defense Fund (which Edelman, Yale Law Class of 1963, still leads).
Hillary Rodham Clinton apparently would have you believe that, in 1973 she had forgone a career at a lucrative Washington D.C. law firm to instead, serve the public at Yale University’s Children’s Defense Fund (CDF). Possibly but not likely the exact truth..but that’s not the whopper I speak of yet. She seems to have embellished the path which brought her to work for Yale’s CDF. While she did indeed work for the CDF and including among other places, New Bedford in 1973, it seemed more like Plan B than her passion, but this was her fate and it served her well.
Hillary Rodham took the exact course typical of ambitious political law school grads out of the Ivy League. It seemed she went for for the big bucks at that dreamy law firm in D.C….but she failed to pass her bar exams in the District of Columbia, instead eventually passed them in Arkansas.
In last night’s acceptance speech, Secretary Clinton told a story of her experience on the South Coast of Massachusetts in the City of New Bedford as an attorney for the CDF that didn’t all add up according to my radio colleague Chris McCarthy:
“My mother, Dorothy, was abandoned by her parents as a young girl. She
ended up on her own at 14, working as a housemaid. She was saved by the kindness of others.
Her first-grade teacher saw she had nothing to eat at lunch and brought extra food to share the entire year. The lesson she passed on to me, years later, stuck with me: No one gets through life alone. We have to look out for each other and lift each other up.
And she made sure I learned the words from our Methodist faith: “Do all the good you can, for all the people you can, in all the ways you can, as long as ever you can.”
“So, I went to work for the Children’s Defense Fund, going door-to-door in New Bedford, Mass., on behalf of children with disabilities who were denied the chance to go to school.
I remember meeting a young girl in a wheelchair on the small back porch of her house. She told me how badly she wanted to go to school — it just didn’t seem possible in those days. And I couldn’t stop thinking of my mother and what she’d gone through as a child.
It became clear to me that simply caring is not enough. To drive real progress, you have to change both hearts and laws. You need both understanding and action.
So we gathered facts. We built a coalition. And our work helped convince Congress to ensure access to education for all students with disabilities.” MORE

SNIP: And here’s the follow up to Hillary’s lie:
This is what else we’ve unearthed in our investigation into Hillary’s dubious anecdotal story about her days patrolling New Bedford for floundering wheelchair bound children who were not welcomed at the public schools in 1973. Read More: A “Tale” Of Two Cities
SNL has to do a skit on this to get the truth out or put the truth in picture form on social media. Sarc off now. Sheeple don’t read.
Why even bother fisking her-as some else pointed out she lies when she doesn’t even have to-I’m afraid 8 years of the POS liar in the WH now has numbed me. To people like this with no shame, it doesn’t matter.
For Heaven’s sake, she lied to the parents of those killed in Benghazi while STANDING OVER THEIR COFFINS.
if the beast hillary didn’t take credit for others accomplishments, what could she possibly have on her resume?
after all the lefts new rallying cry is: “you didn’t build that”! “I must have helped by just being here”! “now pay me”!
Gee Hillary, if you were so enamored with working at the Children’s Defense Fund, going door-to-door in New Bedford, Mass., on behalf of children with disabilities as you say you did, what motivated you to take the DC Bar exam in the first place?
Oh, and why was your mother in 1st grade at 14?
I knew this was a lie the minute the words escaped her mouth.
My childhood predates Hillary’s entry into the work world by a decade, and yet I attended an elementary school that featured two classes for mentally retarded children. My school district was so devoted to the concept of educating handicapped children that they even accepted students for these classes from other districts.
Now that I think about it, Hillary’s problem is that they never had Special Ed for people who cannot tell the truth!
Did she do all this door to door compassionate wprk while under sniper fire from the vast right wing conspiacy?
Hey guys, take it easy on poor Hill. She didn’t “intend” to lie so it is not a lie! (sarc/off) When her whole life is a sham and a farce based on her lady parts and, especially, whom she married these things just naturally roll off her tongue even with a whole in it. And, in her case Obama is correct, she didn’t build anything.
Please stop calling this evil lizard Hillary. Her name is Killary!
@greetingsfromyonkers: I must have missed something. When did you say Hillary entered the work world…?
😉
@mcfartusspontaneous
hellary.
And then there is loco-haunt-us
She is the living, breathing example of that famous quote (not sure who said it first), “Every word she says is a lie including “the” and “and”.”
With 853 staffers, the Crooked Hillary for Precedent® [sic] cabal could at least RESEARCH her lies. I mean, a good NOVELIST write a piece that at least dovetails with history. I think that Crooked Hillary is actually psychotic, and the incessant lies are actually a subliminal cry to “stop me, pleeeeeease!” Maybe she walks around Glamis Castle in her sleep, talking to Vince Foster!
Bloody Mary had no tomato juice, I suspect!!!
