Counselor to the President Kellyanne Conway referenced the 'Bowling Green Massacre' in two other interviews days before she used the same justification for the refugee ban on Hardball with Chris Matthews.

She mentioned the fictitious massacre to Cosmopolitan in a phone interview about the ban and to a cameraman for TMZ on January 29.

After she was lampooned for citing the 'alternative fact' on Hardball, Conway tweeted out how the mistake was a mere slip of the tongue and she really meant to say 'Bowling Green terrorists.'

She tried to deflect the row by pointing out mistakes journalists made that week on Twitter: 'Honest mistakes abound. Last night, prominent editor of liberal site apologized for almost running a story re: tweet from fake account.

Don't look now but Hillary's not in jail, the wall is a fantasy, and OBAMACARE is not getting replaced until "supposedly" next year. Why? Because they have nothing better. Let's talk about those lies.

We shall see about the wall. Three weeks in and the aCA has been repealed, color me shocked. Three weeks in and a real law abiding AG hasn't been allowed to be approved by the anarchists democrats, color me shocked. None of those lies have even had a chance to get going, Obama's ruined this nation.

During the campaign, Trump promised to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act immediately upon taking office. Last month, in an interview with The Washington Post, he said he had a replacement law "very much formulated down to the final strokes."

The U.S.-Mexico border barrier that President Donald Trump pushed forward could cost a projected $15 billion, according to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. That bill would come out to $120 per household, based on the latest Census data of U.S. households, according to the nonpartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.

While out on his "Thank You Tour," President-elect Trump smugly admits to lying about his campaign promises to lock up Hillary Clinton and "drain the swamp."

"It's in the process and maybe it will take till sometime into next year, but we are certainly going to be in the process. It's very complicated," Trump said.

Lyin' Donald: 101 Of Trump's Greatest Lies

Donald Trump has repeatedly labeled his political opponents liars. He dubbed Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) Lyin' Ted when it became clear that Cruz was a serious rival for his nomination; he called Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) an "even bigger liar" than Cruz. He dubbed Dr. Ben Carson a "pathological liar" and said former Florida Governor Jeb Bush's lies were almost as bad as Cruz's. Trump has termed virtually every mildly adversarial media member a liar, too.


But there's only one truly massive liar in this race: Donald Trump. When Politico attempted to measure how many lies Trump told over the course of 4.6 hours of speeches, they found that he lied, on average, once every five minutes. When Huffington Post catalogued his lies over the course of just one town hall event, they came up with 71 lies.


Which made it relatively easy to come up with this not-even-close-to-complete list of 101 lies from Donald Trump.

Donald Trump: All the false claims 45th President has made since his inauguration
President Donald Trump cemented his reputation for fabrication on the campaign trail, but ascending to the highest office in the land has not kept him from making false claims.


The 45th President has offered his own "alternative facts" at least five times since being inaugurated.


Mr Trump's press secretary, Sean Spicer, used his first ever White House press conference to make similar false claims while lambasting reporters for alleged bias and, later, Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway leapt to his defence by saying the untruths were instead "alternative facts".


Here are Mr Trump's false claims in order.

They're working on repealing the ACA but they're not there yet. So, when does "insurance for everybody" start? that sure sounds great. Gotta love the "Obama's ruined this nation"...such a drama queen smh. It would be closer to the truth if you said that it is happening right now.

Later in the week, a final confirmation vote could come for attorney general nominee Sen. Jeff Sessions, an Alabama Republican.
Why after DeVos? Because Sessions is still needed in the Senate to vote for DeVos and Republicans don't want to chance any delay in Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley filling Sessions' seat, which could leave DeVos in the lurch.

I will say I hated that. There is still not insurance for everybody nor should there be. It is not a right and has never been a right. The increase in number is a direct result of medicaid.

Claiming "it's not a right" so it shouldn't be considered is one of the most ignorant arguments I've heard. It's not a right to have safe bridges and roads or competent schools and teachers either. By your argument those should be eliminated too. You've repeated this "it's not a right" BS so many times I can't count them.

Yep. Drive me nuts, too.

It's also "not a right" to have highways using taxpayer funds.....it's also "not a right" to have city public transportation. It's also "not a right" to have a public education system using taxpayer money. Laws create most of these "not a right" people.....but this "not a right" ACA hurt their wallets, thus they got pissed.

If the number goes to more than 2, you wouldn't be able to count it anyway. It is not a right, nor is anything other than life, unless you are a under 5 month old fetus for libs, liberty, freedom for liberals, and the pursuit of property which is what the founding fathers meant by happiness.

None of those things are rights, you on the left are just downright stupid about what life, unless you are a fetus, liberty, freedom to decide for yourself and choose, and the pursuit of property, that was what pursuit pf happiness meant. In england, only the nobility could own property and thus have a means to live. Libs are not very smart when it comes to the consitiution. Roads are not a right, bridges are not a right, cars are not a right, a living wage is not a right. You have the right to choose what you do, not what you get for what you do, Other people decide what you are worth, not yourself.

Wow, calling me stupid and you don't even make sense. I never mentioned a "car". But I did mention highways, and I did mention public education. Why those? Because.....they USE TAXPAYER MONEY!!!!! I'm not saying give everyone a "car". That's just stupid that you would try to simply it like that. Crazy!

Point being, there are things that are "not rights" that Republicans pushed for back in the day for the "betterment of the nation" but health care is not one of them today......because it hurts YOUR wallet.......

I think all Americans are fed up with the BS from our elected leaders. I am biased but the fact that Trump and his two mouthpieces lie literally everyday is very concerning. Just like Trump stating yesterday that the murder rate was the highest in 47-48 years. This is easily fact-checked and he still doesn't care. With the example you used, we didn't know what ACA offered or didn't offer. There was no immediate or easy way for the public to check the facts. I am not justifying Obama's false statements, just stating that nobody knew at that moment if what he said was true. Trump Conway and Spicer lie about known facts.......again I am biased but that is concerning.

I probably do more for the less fortunate than you ever will. I have put in 30 years at the bradley free clinic here in Roanoke providing free dental care to working poor. Probably totalling in excess of 120,000, tht's conservative, over the time span. I have worked in three missions of mercies here in roanoke before the city decided it wanted to be paid excessively for our free services. Typical democratic govt. There are others too that I donate to so don't give me that holier than thou crap that liberals like to spew. How has the govt welfare system that you so espouse doing for the poor? The ACA has hurt employment, hurt pay and only benefits a few. Nothing has been gained by it except some state governments have expanded welfare rolls. That is offset by those who lost it and those that now can't afford the deductible.

Obama's ruined this nation.

Uh ... exactly opposite ... Obama brought the nation back from the brink of ruin.

You don't like Obama care, we get it ... but don't ignore everything else. And you paint Obamacare as the worst financial disaster ever, when the effects of it aren't anywhere near as dire as you paint them to be. I don't like most of it either, but let's at least be honest about it.
