The Truth About Hillary: SEN. MOYNIHAN ‘HATED HILLARY

“The Truth About Hillary: What She Knew, When She Knew It, and How Far She’ll Go to Be come President,” by Edward Klein, is excerpted in Vanity Fair and slated to roll off the presses later this month.

The late Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan and his wife despised a “duplicitous” and ruthless Hillary Rodham Clinton, who they believed would do anything to advance herself, according to a bombshell new book.

Sen. Moynihan’s wife, Liz, griped to a friend that a “duplicitous” Clinton “would say or do anything that would forward her ambitions,” according to the excerpt.

“She can look you straight in the eye and lie . . . ‘Lying’ isn’t a sufficient word; it’s a distortion of the truth to fit her case.”

Sounds like she is the same truth purveyor as her husband, Bill.

Klein writes that Liz Moynihan, who managed her husband’s campaigns, said of Clinton, “She believes that God approves of her and that, therefore, she can’t do anything wrong. I suppose it’s a Midwestern Methodist view, the equivalent of Nixon and Quakerism.”

Sounds like an inflated ego to me….or delusions of grandeur.

Clinton yesterday called Sen. Moynihan her “wonderful predecessor,” adding, “I can just hear him saying what needs to be said about the president and the Republican leadership.

“There’s never been an administration . . . in our history more intent upon consolidating and abusing power to further their own agenda,” Clinton said.

In 1999, Hillary Clinton sought Moynihan’s blessing to run for his seat and announced her “listening tour” at the then-senator’s upstate farm in Pindars Corners.

It is no secret Moynihan and Clinton had a forced relationship, but Klein contends that Moynihan could barely stomach her.

Stay tuned…. the heat upon Hillary is just starting.
