WASHINGTON -- Hillary Rodham Clinton's campaign said she "misspoke" last week when saying she had landed under sniper fire during a trip to Bosnia as first lady in March 1996. She later characterized the episode as a "misstatement" and a "minor blip."

During a speech last Monday on Iraq, she said of the Bosnia trip: "I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base."

Asked about the issue during a meeting with the Philadelphia Daily News' editorial board on Monday, Clinton said she "misspoke."

"I went to 80 countries, you know. I gave contemporaneous accounts, I wrote about a lot of this in my book. You know, I think that, a minor blip, you know, if I said something that, you know, I say a lot of things - millions of words a day - so if I misspoke, that was just a misstatement," she said.

Now where was that?

were you under fire? So many that it slips your mind?

And it's strange that the media wouldn't report it, with dozens of talking heads pointing to charts maps and graphs...slow motion video of Hillary ducking and running for cover, with slo-mo sound effects of bullets ricocheting off the tarmac. Maybe like the green lighting of the Jessica Lynch play by play coverage...


It doesnt pass the smell test. Lies and Liars.

or is that misstatement?

:eyes:

NGU.

so easily.
