Clinton stuttering over reporters Waco sniper comment.
It will have to be looked a again. But I wanted to get this out there. She had a hard time coming out with a comment for her additional sniper comment.

3. I'm watching.. there was ANOTHER sniper comment? I heard her stuttering, but
thought it was about Bosnia. Or were they talking about the many times she's repeated the same "misstatement" ?

Was she "exhausted" every time she said it? Oh, there she is with the "I say a million words a week" comment.

how can we trust her to keep the country straight?

31. I'm sure it's only a matter of time before she'll claim that the
speech writer was also sleep deprived when he/she put in into her speech. Or maybe she'll claim she was sleep deprived when she told him/her to include it. Who the hell knows anymore. She tells so many lies even she can't keep track of them anymore. :crazy:

Since Feb 29th, where she apparently lied about it in Waco.

18. It is about Bosnia but she said it more than once. I believe the
reporter said in Waco she said it. I'll have to make adjustments as soon as the firggin media lets us know but like everything with the Clintons it's downplayed.

"misstatement."

28. Here is the video from Waco:
One of the great honors of being First Lady and of being a senator is the time that I was privileged to spend with our troops here at home, in Iraq and Afghanistan, in Bosnia, Kosovo, and places around the world. I remember particularly a trip to Bosnia where the welcoming ceremony had to be moved inside because of sniper fire.

Believe me, with clinton using wrights worst quotes against obama when before she said "no comment", she must have some reason for wanting to desperately bring the story back on wright.

Who wants more of the same terror, with the terrorist war. Sounds like a transition to more of the same.

40. What's the difference between a War story and a Fairy Tale?
A Fairy Tale starts out with "Once upon a time"

A War story starts out with" Now this ain't no shit."

61. Reminds me of the old joke: What's the difference between a fairy tale in the North and a fairy tale
in the South?

In the North a fairy tale starts "Once upon a time" and in the South a fairy tale starts "Y'all ain't gonna believe this shit."

49. Someone who truly loves that woman needs to shut down her 'advisors'
end the torture of the campaign and get Hillary to REST. She is not gonna get the nomination and watching her unravel trying to avoid dealing with that fact is painful. For any good she has done others, she deserves not to have the whole world watch this part of her life.

For her own good, SOMEBODY who loves her needs to intervene. It will only get worse and she should be helped to maintain some personal dignity.
