BAD 'MORNING' FOR HILLARY By RAY KERRISON
Bill Safire once called Hillary a "congenital
liar." Her TV performances this week have
done nothing to dispel the description.
HILLARY Rodham Clinton's unsubstantiated
claim that the president's sex scandal was
perpetrated by a "vast right-wing conspiracy"
blew up in her face yesterday.
For the first time since she became First Lady
five years ago, Hillary was forced to explain
and defend one of her outrageous claims -
and she ran for cover.
It happened on ABC-TV's "Good Morning
America," when Hillary sat for a 20-minute
interview with Lisa McCree on the scandal
and President Clinton's State of the Union
Address.
For the first 15 minutes of the interview,
McCree lobbed puffballs at the First Lady, as
Matt Lauer had done the day before on
NBC's "Today" show.
Then she bore in.
"Do you think that this young woman
Monica Lewinsky_, when she came to
work at the White House as a 21-year-old
intern, was part of some right-wing
conspiracy and placed there by your
husband's enemies?"
Hillary replied: "Oh, I'm not suggesting any
such thing."
The hell she wasn't. Only 24 hours earlier,
she not only blamed a right-wing conspiracy
for her husband's problems, but insisted it
was "the great story - for anybody willing to
find it and write about it."
Ordinarily, that would have been the end of
the questioning with every TV interviewer
who has ever confronted Hillary.
But not Lisa McCree. She was not about to
let Hillary squirm off the hook.
"In general, this wide approach that the
White House is using now, that it is
someone else's fault ... Those reports came
from the press, from secret tapes," McCree
said. "It didn't seem, to anyone observing,
that it could have been anything that was
orchestrated."
Hillary replied: "Let's just wait and find out
what the truth is, and I don't think it's
fruitful at all to speculate or to engage in
hypothetical. We know very few facts right
now."
Bull's-eye!
Pressed for the first time in her life to
support one of her fraudulent claims,
Hillary Rodham Clinton at first denied it,
then retreated behind a blur of words about
speculation.
She could not cite one instance, one person,
one place or one event to support her nutty
assertion that a right-wing cabal had hatched
Clinton's slimy sexcapades. It was just
another Hillary lie.
She has been getting away with this stuff for
years, ever since she claimed she rolled
$1,000 into a $100,000 bonanza trading cattle
futures on the commodity markets.
The White House press corps and numerous
TV interviewers have never held her
accountable for that scam.
They've never pinned her down on any of
her other devious works - the missing files,
the Travelgate firings, the hiring of Craig
Livingstone, etc.
Not, that is, until yesterday, when Lisa
McCree put her on the spot and Hillary
folded like a wet noodle.
The First Lady's passage across the scandal
landscape is an amazing spectacle. While her
husband hides behind lawyers and advisers
in the White House, desperately trying to
construct a defense to save his neck, she has
stepped up front to face the public and do his
dirty work.
>From the White House to Harlem, from the
NBC studios to Capitol Hill, she has swept
in, her face wreathed in smiles, as if she
hadn't a care in the world.
The gross, grotesque details of her husband's
philandering with an intern under her roof
appear not to disturb her one whit. Her
performance is inhuman.
How can she do it? Well, she's not doing it
for the man now publicly identified as "the
big creep." Hillary is doing it for Hillary.
She has embarked on this squalid campaign
to save her own destiny. Clinton's fate is her
fate. If he is driven from office in disgrace,
she falls with him. And the stigma will
attach to her for the rest of her life, just as it
did to Richard and Pat Nixon.
So from here on in, Hillary Clinton will do
anything, say anything, go anywhere, suffer
any indignity to protect her lyin', cheatin'
husband - if only to hold on to her position
as First Lady.
Bill Safire once called her a "congenital liar."
Her TV performances this week have done
nothing to dispel the description. How many
lamp shades she has thrown in private
might be something else.
Between them, the Clintons have poisoned
public discourse in this country. Night after
night, young families are subjected to the
sordid, obscene details of Bill Clinton's sex
life being bombarded into their living
rooms. Each day, it gets worse. You wonder
where it is all going to end.
Now Dick Morris, Clinton's favorite
political guidance counselor until he was
bumped for sucking a hooker's toes and
regaling her with state secrets, has gone
public with a most sensational charge. On a
radio talk show, he suggested -
hypothetically, he says - that Hillary might
be a lesbian.
When does the country cry enough?
Many people are confused by all the charges
and countercharges flying around Clinton.
In fact, it is simple to arrive at the truth if
you ignore what the principals are saying
and concentrate on what they are doing.
The president denies any sexual relationship
with Monica Lewinsky, but look what he is
doing. He huddles day after day with legal
and political teams to find a defense, and
sends others out to stonewall. The mark of
an innocent? Not likely.
Monica Lewinsky is not saying anything, but
look what she is doing. She's desperately
seeking an immunity deal to save herself
from going to prison. Why pursue that
course if the allegations against Clinton are
false?
It's high noon for Bill and Hillary. They're
in danger of being trapped in their own web
of lies.
And that's why Hillary will do anything -
even fabricate stories of bizarre right-wing
plots, if necessary - to save their skins.
But she didn't get away with it.
Lisa McCree called her. And it was about
time.
