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."
--Hillary Clinton, speech at George Washington University, March 17, 2008

She is such an incredible liar. There is no defense for this.... None.

1. Maybe when she said "sniper fire" she meant "8-year old girl shaking hands".

nomination.

This goes way beyond an exaggeration. It's an outright lie.

42. Clintons have learned well from Rove
Every now and then I'll watch faux news. They of course have hired Karl Rove to comment on campaigns.I can't stand his face or his voice but I will listen to what he says for about 5 minutes before clicking away. He is clearly wanting Hillary to win and he gives tips on which methods to use. I'm not kidding.

Hillary and Bill play with the rich, and now are the rich. They didn't do anything for regular people. They ARE "Corporate America." Obama may not be perfect but he's not corrupted. Yet.

22. If she corrects herself immediately, this will be forgotten in a week or two.
And rightly so. If she lets the misinformation stand, then it becomes a lie.

Could she just be confusing Tusla with some other episode? If so, no big deal. Was she ever anywhere near hostile fire?

Please tell me it was a simple misstatement. One of my favorite versions about the Tuzla story was from the Comedian Sinbad about the president not wanting to go into a dangerous area, so he sends his wife and daughter, and is escorted by a guitar player and a comedian.

34. Updated Wash Post story....
http://blog.washingtonpost.com/fact-checker/2008/03/hillarys_balkan_adventures_par.html

UPDATE Friday 6:45 p.m.

Lissa Muscatine, who served as Hilary Clinton's chief speechwriter in 1996 and accompanied her on the Bosnia trip, feels that I have failed to provide a full picture of what took place. She gave me her "vivid recollections" of the arrival in Tuzla, which I quote below:

I was on the plane with then First Lady Hillary Clinton for the trip from Germany into Bosnia in 1996. We were put on a C17-- a plane capable of steep ascents and descents -- precisely because we were flying into what was considered a combat zone. We were issued flak jackets for the final leg because of possible sniper fire near Tuzla. As an additional precaution, the First Lady and Chelsea were moved to the armored cockpit for the descent into Tuzla. We were told that a welcoming ceremony on the tarmac might be canceled because of sniper fire in the hills surrounding the air strip. From Tuzla, Hillary flew to two outposts in Bosnia with gunships escorting her helicopter.

UPDATE Saturday 8:45 a.m.

Gen. Nash says that I misquoted him in saying he was unaware of any "security threat" to the First Lady. While he was unaware of any "sniper threat," he now tells me there were a couple of "security concerns" that day, which he found out about after returning to his headquarters after greeting Clinton at the airport. There was a "non-specific report" of a possible truck bomb in the area. The military also had information that "some of the communications associated with the First Lady's visit were being monitored."

"In both cases, we took appropriate security action," said Nash, adding that Clinton's visit was not disrupted.

to fight in Iraq - my cousin suggested sending a brigade but was turned down.

This lie of Hillary's is in my mind one of the most dispicable by any politician ever.

It completely trivializes the danger of real troops.

50. I remember ....
just a few weeks ago, I tend to think it was right after Wyoming, I was listening to Hillary on TV giving a talk about primaries and caucases. It would have never got my attention except for the fact she was talking to this crowd, mostly adults, like they were 2nd Graders. To me, she sounded like an Elementary School teacher in front of her class on show and tell day. I wasn't the only one that noticed it, as did my S/O a 100% pro Hillary supporter.

I felt insulted and embarrassed "for" those poor people.

Do you guys remember Romper Room and how the woman talked to her students. It was eerily similar.

I just wonder????
