Hillary: ‘South Korea Is Literally Within Miles of the Border With North Korea’

while we’re on things Hillary said:

As Breitbart News has long documented, Hillary Clinton supporters were the original “Birthers,” and Obama himself muddied the waters by allowing his literary agent to claim for years that he had been “born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia.”

Didn’t Hillary tell of her 1st flight to SK as Sec of State having to quickly corkscrew in to avoid missle fire? After deplaning, she had to run a zig zagging gauntlet 2 miles down the runway, just to avoid NK sniper bullets whizzing by her head. She was later awarded the Purple Heart, for a serious cankle sprain, as reward for her bravery.

@Oneirishman: All that is true, but I thought the purple heart was for a case of clap she got over there.

@Greg: Yeah, I’m SURE that’s what she was thinking. Sheesh.

People who do a lot of talking make mistakes. The point is, this is only a galactic event when it is a conservative making the statement. Hillary said something stupid. For once, she was merely mistaken, not outright lying.

@Redteam. #7:

Neither country exercises sovereign authority over the DMZ that separates them. A nation’s border is the line where the recognized sovereign authority of its government ends.

@Greg: .

The separating DMZ was part of the UN agreement that put the Korean War on hold. The arrangement has stood to the present day. The two countries haven’t shared a common border for 64 years.

The dmz is only a zone that is demilitarized. No one said it’s not the border only that they can’t militarize it.

@Greg: You did hear Maxipad Waters say that if NK dropped a bomb on us that Trump would get us into a war, right? She’s another example of the bright stars of the left.

You know, Greg, rather than go through all of these mental gymnastics and nit-picking, wouldn’t it be easier to just say that Hillary was probably thinking about Seoul when she said South Korea?
It would have the benefit of being probably true.
Because nobody, but nobody believes that she was making such a fine distinction as you are claiming.

@Greg: #17
You are attributing to intellect what is more probably simple error.
In other words, you’re trying too hard, Greg.

@Greg:

On the northern side of the DMZ you have electrified fences and a band of land filled with landmines.

Total BS. Don’t you have access to satellite photos? Look at the DMZ, there is nothing physical to separate if from either country. No fences, no guards. It’s certainly more open and a lot less guarded than the border between us and mexico. Why are you pushing this? Just to make Hillary look more intelligent? If you want her to appear more intellegent you need to put a bug up her ass.

@Greg:

North Korea and South Korea are separated by a 2.5 mile-wide no man’s land.

So now it’s not a DMZ, it’s a ‘no man’s land’. Is this official, or Greg’s opinion, recently invented?

North Korea and South Korea are separated by a 2.5 mile-wide no man’s land. At the center is a Military Demarcation Line.

Two more changes in name? ‘No man’s land” and “Military Demarcation Line” No Greg, the term is DMZ.

Nor does Maddow, who understood exactly what Clinton meant. Figuring that out isn’t rocket science, though some grasp of the situation on the Korean peninsula and how it came about might be prerequisite.

So Madcow knew ‘exactly’ what Clinton meant, but you can’t figure which of the four things you have named it, just above is what her name for it is. Rocket science or not, you haven’t been able to come up with the name for it. But I will say, from the satellite photos, there are people living in the DMZ.

@Greg:

“Military Demarcation Line” is an actual term

“No man’s land” is a more general term, but it precisely describes what the area surrounding

The fact that someone doesn’t know what terms mean doesn’t demonstrate that the terms are meaningless. It only demonstrates a lack of certain information.

So let’s see if I’ve got this all figured out. You know what all those things mean, but if someone says’ Border” you don’t have a clue? Ok, yeah, now I understand.

@Greg:

Nor does Maddow, who understood exactly what Clinton meant.

Maddow did what all you liberals do; you don’t LISTEN to what one of your liberals says. Like when Hillary said she was going raise taxes on the middle class (accurate or faux pax?) and the crowd roared. You don’t listen to what these people say, you just cheer their mouths moving and noise coming out of it. This is why you routinely select such terrible “leaders”.

The “border” is the 38th parallel. The DMZ is mostly within N. Korean territory. No matter how you try to twist it, your explanation of Hillary’s stupid gaff doesn’t float, although it should, considering what it is composed of… which DOES float.

@Redteam:

Why are you pushing this? Just to make Hillary look more intelligent?

Liberals simply cannot admit a mistake. Liberals are infallible and conservatives are racist, misogynistic homophobes; this is what has to be promoted for failed liberals (racists, misogynists and homophobes when they need to be) appear superior.

Hillary misspoke. She said something stupid. Like when Obama or Bush did it, it did not reflect on their intelligence, but the way they scramble to cover the mistake up certainly says a lot about their character.

@Greg:

This entire string of comments demonstrates the right’s need to obsessively believe and defend every trivial, dumb-ass propaganda meme the pinheads who crank them out pitch into the internet echo box, no matter how illogical they seem to any reasonably thoughtful person.

No, the only context for a stupid slip of the tongue is how you liberals harped and harped and harped and harped on any time Bush misstated something or the invented missteps of Palin, which you leftists contrived then foisted them off as HERS.

So, each dumb remark becomes the IQ test of the speaker because you leftists made it so. It means Obama really thinks there are 59 states, there is an Austrian language or Marine Corps is pronounced “corpse”. It means that despite her Yale (racist institution) education, Hillary thinks miles separate North and South Korea along their common border (the 38th Parallel, not DMZ… that is not the border).

Biden is a different case; he IS an idiot.

So, stop pretending conservatives are being unfair. We are merely playing YOUR game by YOUR rules. You want it different? Try to act like an adult for a while.

You should just consider yourself lucky she didn’t drop another N-bomb.

@Greg:

I also understand the meaning of the term “pig headed.”

as in ‘self descriptive’? So how did it happen that you can’t find the definition of ‘border’? Let’s give you a quiz. If there is a country that is totally surrounded by a body of water, say the Atlantic Ocean. Does it have a ‘border’?

@Greg-Another damn sock puppet…: Your new handle? Most people would hesitate to self identify that way, but, whatever……

@Redteam, #30:

Maybe you’ll like this better. There’s a border separating North Korea from South Korea; it just happens to be a line that’s 2.5 miles wide:

“Even though barbed wire fences, listening posts, and armed guards make the North Korean border one of the most militarized in the world, it’s only 2.5 miles wide — which puts it within easy viewing distance of the other side.”

Or maybe you won’t.

“The Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) is the stretch of land that divides North Korea from South Korea. It was established at the end of World War II and runs for roughly 150 miles.”

It kind of sounds like they’re separated by 2.5 miles, doesn’t it? You know, like the former Secretary of State said.

@Bill… Deplorable Me, #35:

The 38th parallel was the dividing line separating the Soviet and U.S. occupation zones in Korea following the surrender of Japan. The U.N. decided in 1948 that it would become the dividing border, but neither North nor South Korea have ever recognized it as such. So far as national boundaries go, it’s nothing more than an historical artifact. The reality is that the two nations are separated by a 2.5 mile-wide demilitarized buffer zone that has existed since 1953.

If the 38th parallel were officially recognized as the border, North Korea would become larger, and South Korea would become smaller.

She ISN’T a god.

Somebody suggested that she is?

@Greg: It’s kinda funny that you link an article that says that the DMZ was designated as the border between N and S Korea at the end of WWII. Is that the best you can do? The border today is the DMZ that was established in 1953. But that pretty picture of that fence that it says was erected in 1945 actually is along a section of the DMZ from 53. You might want to check out your feature links before linking to them. But, as I said the other day. Look at a satellite map of Korea and you will see many many villages ‘within’ the DMZ Tell you what. pull up Google map and search for this coordinate 37.7729736, 126.6315518 That will put you inside of a village that is less than 4000 feet from the middle of the DMZ ( in other words, ‘inside your 2.5 mile DMZ) and the other side of the DMZ is even less than 4000 feet to the nearest settlements of the N Koreans.

@Not UI: Hillary knows that and knows the names of all the people in those villages. She a genius that never makes mistakes.
