She is hiding behind the herd mentality, something she hyperbolically calls "the collective wisdom".... Ha! What a wisdom! Anyway, it looks like blaming the "collective wisdom" to blur individual accountability is going to be their defense strategy. BTW, it is nothing other than yet another herd protective strategy. Presidential Herd mentality from beginning to end! Herd all along!

The second defense strategy that comes across out of her deposition in this video is to put the interviewer, namely Wexler on the defensive by basically pulling rank on him while telling him he should have done his homework/reading of a given year's report. There are so many reports out there, the odds are that even if a given report was read, the memory of details would be lacking of not read recently. So, any statement made such as "you should read (or) should have read blah...blah...blah..." is clearly a strategy meant to redirect the defensive energy back to the player who "served the ball". This is basically a tactic to avoid giving precise answers to direct questions. Notice that she does not use the report at all to enlighten Wexler with documented facts, instead, she merely used the report to pull hierarchical strings on Wexler and play mind games with him. Wexler should have asked what in the report should be expected to be found that could help answer his question, thus trapping her into her own mind games to get into the bottom of things. She ended up humping from one empty statement to another using her usual shallow formulaic speech

Similar to the case of the Nuremberg Trial, the third defense strategy looks like it will be based on a sense of self-entitled integrity, as expressed by Condilessa on the video, where she comes across as having trained herself to believe in lies, as a coping mechanism, sort of a self hypnosis to be able to function. Trust in authority is all too often equated with good conscience, while blind trust is a psychological compensation to fill in the spot where conscience should have been in the first place.

All the depositions are going to be interesting! thank you for posting the videos! That's a great idea!

Seems to me, a good rule of thunb with Condi is "if her lips are moving - she's lying." I don't believe that she's capable of knowing the difference anymore. 1111healer
