A half-truth to me is the same as a lie. I am very disappointed in her. What change will she bring to Washington? I was hoping for truth, the WHOLE truth not more half-truths.

(both sides!) What she implied was that she was a quick thinker that saved the tax-payers money, but the full truth is that she wasn't shrewd enough to get ahead with a great idea. Actually ended up loosing mony and costing the people money!! Why mention quips like this thinking the wont be fact checked...huh? they're waiting for people like YOU to ignore the facts that's what's up!! She said she put it on e-bay.
