Among several other innaccuracies, and a few outright lies in Bill Clinton's new autobiography comes this whopper. Bill says Hillary was named after Sir Edmund Hillary. There is a problem, however. Edmund Hillary didn't climb Everest until 7 years after Hillary Clinton was born, and Sir Hillary wasn't even a bit famous before he climbed the mountain; in fact he was a poor beekeeper. This is such a stupid lie to get caught in, because even if it were true, no one would give a damn, so why bother making it up? It's almost as if Bill wants everyone to distrust him, and he does his best to help.
