"Hillary Clinton sent coal-country Sen. Joe Manchin a letter admitting she was wrong when she said, “We’re going to put a lot of coal miners and coal companies out of business” while campaigning in Ohio."
...

"In the letter sent on Tuesday, Hillary Clinton said she was “mistaken” in her remarks."

“I’m writing to clarify what I said recently regarding coal communities at a CNN town hall. Simply put, I was mistaken in my remarks,” she wrote. “Coal will be part of the energy mix for years to come.”

1. And another link to a Rupert Murdoch tabloid...

[leftofcool]

4. They love those links.

[think]

5. You can read Hillary lies about anywhere. They're plentiful...

[DanTex]

14. I wonder why Hillary-bashers keep linking to right-wing sources then...

Do they just prefer right-wing media? Or is it that they stuff they want to read doesn't get published anywhere else? What do you think?

[RufusTFirefly]

11. How about AP? That good enough for you?

Clinton letter to Manchin: I was mistaken in coal remarks

[tk2kewl]

22. and here is Bill friend Jeff Epstein's gal Ghislaine Maxwell with Rupert

it's a big (sick) club

[72DejaVu]

27. A picture of her husband's friend's girlfriend with Rupert Murdoch?

Keep digging, maybe her neighbor's cousin had a friend who used to live down the block from Bill O'Reilly.

[tk2kewl]

28. look up Epstein

and Ghislaine

[72DejaVu]

29. Your campaign has become a self parody.

[tk2kewl]

31. you better hope Trump was also a client

[Armstead]

12. And who are they quoting?

[DanTex]

15. I didn't read it. Hillary-bashing bores me. But the persistent use of right-wing sources on a

supposedly Democratic website, in order to smear the Democratic nominee for president, is eyebrow-raising, to say the least.

[Armstead]

16. You lose credibility when you attack without reading

[DanTex]

18. I've read it all before. It gets repetitive. Hillary did some little thing and people who hate her

are outraged.

[astrophuss42]

2. Gotta build that natural gas bridge first

Gotta get those natural gas dollars.

[leftofcool]

3. She did not lie in her town hall

She explained very well how she would transition coal miners into jobs for the future. And yes, we will always have coal in this country. You can stop with calling Hillary a liar anytime now.

[berningman]

7. Ok whatever gets you out of bed in the morning

“I’m writing to clarify what I said recently regarding coal communities at a CNN town hall. Simply put, I was mistaken in my remarks,” she wrote.

Another HRC smear by HRC. She should stop smearing herself or......something

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

8. She didn't lie. She triangulated, tap-danced,

and massaged her message to satisfy her audience - as usual.

[greymouse]

9. ha ha

Sure, her letter said a "mistake," like her "mistake" about Nancy Reagan and AIDS, so that's all right then. Or maybe Murdock wrote the letter for her. I hear he's taken a part-time job as a secretary.

[leftofcool]

13. Bernie lost, get over it!

[islandmkl]

6. but I thought I heard Rep. Tim Ryan tell Tweety last night how Hillary had addressed

the 'real future needs' of Ohio industry, and had shown the 'hard truths' and 'need to explore new directions' to help Ohio sustain its manufacturing base...

oh, she accidentally included the demise of the coal, make that BIG COAL, in her assessment....

and now has to walk it back...

one good thing...that walking path is well worn...

[thereismore]

10. Just like she said oops Tpp is bad, let's tweak some auto-related provisions and bingo! Ohio votes

for Hillary. I am done with this crap.

[hrmjustin]

17. You really should stop reading the NY Post.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

19. OK, then; here's another source:

[RufusTFirefly]

20. Y'all aren't very original in your objections

One of your confederates posted the same specious objection. The AP covered the story, too.

[hrmjustin]

21. We can't all be as talented as you.

[Herman4747]

24. That doesn't mean you shouldn't try.

[workinclasszero]

23. Is Bernie in favor of dirty coal plants

spewing greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere and bringing about global warming?

Tell me more Bernie fans.

Edit: New York Post? Damn

[Herman4747]

25. Is Hillary in favor of all that?? Oh, wait...

WHO KNOWS WHAT THE HELL POSITION HILLARY HAS -- IT CHANGES ALL THE TIME!!!

[whatchamacallit]

26. Sybil, Zelig...

Who the hell is she?!?

[NowSam]

30. LOL. A gaff machine

This is classic. Tell the green Earth people that we'll clean up the energy and then after turn around and say that isn't what you meant. Every issue. Every single issue she tells this audience one thing and that audience another. I have never seen a less honest politician in my life.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

32. I wonder if she's heard of some new technology

where you can actually make little movies with your little portable telephone, and then you can make them available to the whole world using this thing they call the Internet (it's like a series of tubes)? It's kind of awesome because when you say something to one group of people, that little movie of what you said can go through one of those Internet tubes and everybody can see it. So then when you tell another group something completely different about the same topic, and that little movie goes through an Internet tube to the whole world, people notice that you said different things to different people and they start to go, "Wait, what?" and "WTF?" and stuff. She might want to look into that.

[NowSam]

35. I think she'd rather look into Diebold Voting Machines

Because then it wouldn't even matter what she says. But you are correct! She doesn't do tech too well. She wipes her drive with a cloth.

[imagine2015]

34. Hillary is by far the weakest candidate the Democratic Party can run for President.

But, it's her turn!

[imagine2015]

33. Interesting: Hillary did not send a "correction" to the coal miners union!

[synergie]

36. I don't think anyone believes that using the NY Post to push yet another lie is a mistake at all.

This is yet another deliberate disinformation campaign.

Here's the non right wing smear version of what the OP posted.

[arcane1]

37. “Coal will be part of the energy mix for years to come.”

Is she deliberately trying to lose my vote?
