Hillary Ran From Me (when I asked her about Walmart)

How dare you say that Hillary Clinton never ran from snipers.

Forget Bosnia, about which she says she "misspoke," when in fact she downright lied.

The only time Hillary Clinton ran from a sniper was right here in New York City, during the 2000 Senate campaign.

Clinton was speaking at a luncheon of elderly Teamster retirees in May 2000 about how much she supported collective bargaining and workers' rights.

Immediately after her speech, while the rest of the gaggle of reporters remained motionless, I walked toward the podium and, when I was about 10 feet away, politely asked her about her stint on the board of directors of Wal-Mart, the world's largest union-busting company.

She stared at me in shock, her eyes grew big as saucers, and, despite the well-wishers and celebrity-seekers who were still waiting for a word or a blessing, she scurried off the stage without saying a word. Yes, she didn't walk, she scurried.

FULL story at link.
