Did Hillary's 'brain have a short circuit' as she claimed or did she lie?

Hillary should well know that cover-ups almost never work, and she shoud have taken Kaine's approach when asked about Hillary's e-mails, namely admit she made a mistake, say she'd ever do such a stupid thing again, and then ask for forgiveness-- Americans accept that kind of approach and plus we tend to have a very short memory.
This would be political suicide given that it is an election year.

I don't think so. Yes, it was a gaff, no doubt, but how many times have we seen cover-ups having more of a negative effect than what the original "crime" was? And if Hillary had admitted this months ago, it would no doubt have been brought up by the Pubs and some others during the campaign, but I don't think it likely would have that much in term of "legs" in the long run, especially with Trump's streaming of gaffs.

Not that well.

BTW, do you say the same about Trump?
Not the same. Just as bad but not the same. Trump isn't a moron that everyone seems to think. He is an excellent actor who plays his role perfectly. He is a pristine line liar that will sell you a **** car for off the lot price and make half the people feel like he got them a deal. Hillary is a perfectly calculated political machine with connections so deep they'll never see the light of day.

Both are liars and cheats. .

Many people supporting HIlda have clear & valid reasons for doing so.
Wanting to live off government largesse is one of them.
Favoring a bigger & more powerful federal gov is another.
I won't dissuade them from planning to vote for her.
I only urge clarity in weighing one's options....wherever this leads.

Btw, I'm a professional Social Security recipient.
But I oppose a pay increase for my ilk.

I'm a professional S.S. recipient also.
I feel we both EARNED it one way or another.
I'm a disabled cop and get disability from the Pension fund that I PAID into, not from tax
dollars, and my G.M. retirement that I paid into.
My s.s. benefits aren't enough to pay for groceries tho I do appreciate getting a bit
back from what I paid into it.
Sad to know that we who pay into s.s. are supporting so many that could work
but CHOOSE not to. It's those "gimme" people that will vote for Killary.

You believe only the 1% will see an increase?
Hmmm.....
I have some ocean front property for sale here in Revoltistan which I'd like to sell you!

Can I get in on that land deal with ya?
I have some Florida land only under 4 feet of water to develop.
Never mind the pit vipers and alligators and rising sea levels.

It only changes when it involves my beliefs (and those who support it) as to make sure it is received in the best way possible. The world revolves around me, ya know!

No it don't ! The world revolves around Killary. Just ask her.

It's been a while now that most people here are on the dole.....

"Obamacare has pushed us over the entitlements tipping point. In 2011 some 49.2 percent of U.S. households received benefits from one or more government programs—about 151 million out of an estimated 306.8 million Americans—according to U.S. Census Bureau datareleased last October.

Currently, around 6 million to 7 million "

I'm disabled but collect ONLY what I PAID into s.s. and my retirement fund.
I still managed to put away almost $100 grand in the market.
"Gimme" people can go take a flying leap at a rolling donut!

Seems a rather lame excuse to me when faced with the FBI saying she lied to the American people and then she lied about lying... and now she claims she didn't lie.... her brain just had a short circuit

Hillary Clinton: "I May Have Short-Circuited The Truth" About The Email Scandal
She did not claim that her brain short-circuited. That is taking what she said out of context.
