Carson: Hillary Clinton Offers a ‘Smorgasbord’ of Lies

‘They redefine things, so we’re happy to hear the definition of what the lie is’

KELLY: “Presidential candidate and retired pediatric neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson. Dr. Carson, it’s great to see you. What do you — I mean, listen, it is tough, have you ever lied, but why can’t you just — (Laughter) — what would you say if he asked you that?”
CARSON: “I would say that everybody has lied. You may not have intentionally lied, but it’s something that you can’t avoid. But in the case of Hillary Clinton, boy, it’s just a smorgasbord. You can take what you want. You know, she lied when she came back when talked to the families when the bodies were being returned from Benghazi and she said there was a videotape and she knew good and well that it wasn’t a videotape. I would call that a lie. But you know, there is a potentially —“
KELLY: “Now she says she did not.”
CARSON: “— by the progressives — yeah, they redefine things, so she — you know, we’re happy to hear the definition of what the lie is.”
KELLY: “Oh, yeah. I in that interview, said it was Serbia, it was actually Bosnia. I just want to show the audience what I’m talking about because, this is how she described her time in Bosnia. Listen.”

CLINTON: “I certainly do remember that trip to Bosnia. (...) I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base.”

KELLY: “And here are the pictures of what happened in Bosnia in the time when she was talking about. Here she goes — there the bullets were licking her hair. I mean, it’s just so ridiculous, Dr. Carson. This is one of the reasons why you appeal to people as somebody who is not a politician, whose honesty ratings who are I think the highest among any of the candidates.”
CARSON: “Well, even with record of honesty, they tried to besmirch my reputation. Of course, as all of the things were proven to be true that they’re said weren’t true, they never came back and said anything. But you know, I think that’s one of the things that will make Hillary Clinton easy to beat, quite frankly. I would relish an opportunity to run against her.”
