Exactly how does one misspeak about landing under sniper fire in Bosnia?
When she spoke about it, it was like she added some details and omitted others.

CNN) -- Sen. Hillary Clinton said she "misspoke" last week when she gave a dramatic description of her arrival in Bosnia 12 years ago, recounting a landing under sniper fire.
Clinton was responding to a question Monday from the Philadelphia Daily News' editorial board about video footage of the event that contradicted her assertion that her group "ran with our heads down" from the plane to avoid sniper fire at the Tuzla Air Base.
Tommy Vietor, a spokesman for rival Sen. Barack Obama's campaign, said the Bosnia claim was part of "a growing list of instances in which Sen. Clinton has exaggerated her role in foreign and domestic policymaking."
Clinton told the paper's editorial board it was a "minor blip." Video Watch how Clinton described her trip »
"I say a lot of things -- millions of words a day -- so if I misspoke, that was just a misstatement," she said."

To Hillary's credit, she is the only human capable of speaking over 23 words per second, 24 hours a day, thus reaching the previously unheard of threshold of "millions of words a day". At that rate, some of them are bound to formulate fantastic, ego-boosting stories with no basis in reality. She can't possibly be blamed for that, can she?
