1. Ebert gushes "Best and bloodiest war adventure since Private Ryan!"
Hillary is in the wrong job. Her true calling is screen writing.

14. Charity kick!
Let's HOPE this keeps the heat off Barack Rezko-McClurkin-Wright Obama!

(It'd work better if it was a big deal, don't you think? Maybe if Hillary screamed "GOD DAMN AMERICA! ITS IN THE BIBLE!" while she ran off the plane? Now *that* would really help!)

12. up to 1959 Diggs now, and I updated the OP with more info
some people have claimed that the video is out of context,
so I have provided an excerpt from a Kos Diarist who checked the Clinton Library
for the schedule that day.

18. Has Obama ever been to Bosnia, in any capacity? DIGG this:
March 26, 1996

Mrs. Clinton praises soldiers' efforts

By The Associated Press

MARKOVICI, Bosnia-Herzegovina - Protected by sharpshooters, Hillary Rodham Clinton swooped into a military zone by Black Hawk helicopter Monday...

Mrs. Clinton became the first presidential spouse since Eleanor Roosevelt to make such an extensive trip into what can be considered a hostile area, though others have visited hot spots.

... a grueling goodwill tour designed to boost troop morale in Bosnia and highlight efforts by Bosnians, Croats and Muslims to resolve deeply held differences.

Standing on a dusty, makeshift boardwalk near an out-of-the-way military hospital...

"It's not going to be easy," she said, pointing to the flight of Serbs from areas of Sarajevo they held as the city came under Bosnian control. "Feelings are very deep. There is a lot of pain. There is a lot to get over - a lot to forgive if there's going to be reconstruction and reconciliation."

But this was a day of celebration and celebrities - a day for the U.S. troops helping to uphold the Bosnian peace accord. Mrs. Clinton hosted a USO show with comedian Sinbad and singer Sheryl Crow and briefly addressed the gathering...

But the highlight of her trip were visits to two fortified posts outside the U.S. base in Tuzla. Even President Clinton, restricted to the base by bad weather in January, did not see as much of this war-wracked region as Mrs. Clinton did Monday...

21. I don't get your post. It's not like Obama has been lying about getting shot at.
That's the whole point of the controversy: not who's been where, but who's lying about things to bolster their "experience."

24. No, but Obama has NEVER LIED about being under sniper fire in Bosnia!
Hey, how about the part where she says people were told to sit on their bullet proof vests?

You buy that lie??? :rofl:

20. why would a mother bring her 12 year old daughter into a war zone?
methinks that this trips was next to perfectly safe. Because if it actually wasn't, you'd have to question why Hillary would so jeopardize Chelsea's safety.
