Talk:Kay Bailey Hutchison/Archive 1

Controversy?
Hutchinson was recently on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart promoting her new book and said that some lady was the MOTHER of Texas because “She was there before there was anything in Texas, back when there was nothing. Back when her husband was a general fighting for the independence from Mexico”. So, doesn’t that mean that there were Mexicans in Texas before this white Mother came in? And most likely there were also a few American Indians there before all of them? And this lady use to be a congress woman?? She obviously only sees “her kind” as “ANYTHING”.

Lies?
November 28, 2004

So habituated to dissembling are our politicians, Republicans especially, it is understandable that the opportunity to lie by merely confirming a mistaken assertion by someone else would prove irresitable, saving one the trouble of making up a fresh falsehood. Thus it was that I heard an interviewer say to Mrs H, (broadcast 11-28-04, possiblly taped eariler) busily promoting her book about heroic females, that she had been re-elected to the Senate three times, right? Wrong, since Senate terms are 6 years and she was elected first in 1993, then re-elected in 1994 and 2000. That means she was re-elected twice. But Mrs. H piped right up and said: "That's correct, I have been re-elected to the Senate three times." Maybe The distinction between being elected or re-elected is unclear to her, or she considers it unimportant, like the truth itself.

 * What does this have to do with anything regarding an encyclopædia article? Nothing at all. A dig against Republicans is what it is. You've never said the wrong tense of a word or used a word with an incorrect modifier? Ridiculous. Bill Clinton out and out lied when he said he "did not have sexual relations with that woman Miss Lewinsky".
