Watch people attack Hillary Clinton for dishonesty — while lying through their teeth

I watched this earlier today and was just astounded--how person after person said they had read these made-up fake emails.
These went on national TV--how embarrassing for them. Karma works well!!

Hillary Clinton is not a trustworthy person -- that seems to be the consensus of much of the country, and it's throwing a wrench in what might otherwise be a more-lopsided presidential election.

And who better to judge her for her lack of trustworthiness than people who are in the process of lying themselves?

Jimmy Kimmel's "Lie Witness News" took to the streets to ask people about the approximately 160 previously unreleased Clinton emails this week. The show, of course, totally made up what was actually in the rather bland emails -- saying Clinton was responding to spam from Nigerian princes and asking Vladimir Putin for shirtless pictures, for instance.[/ But that didn't stop these people from describing how they had read about these non-existent emails and berating Clinton over them.

The best part? The interviewer gets almost all of these liars to attack Clinton for her lack of honesty......................

The fix is in--they've heard it on Fox, therefore it's true.

of moronic, knee-jerk Hillary hate.

Just to prove their point that she's viewed as "untrustworthy", of course.

You have not read the information then lying and saying you have makes a liar of themselves.
