Clinton's "Sniper Fire" Trip To Bosnia: More Video

Hillary Clinton's 1996 trip to Bosnia is at the center of a dispute over her statements that her plane came under sniper fire. This report by Sharyl Attkisson makes no mention of dangerous conditions.

There are numerous scandals involving the Clintons from their time in Arkansas and in the White House. Regardless of whether you believe the Clintons are culpable in whole or in part, or you believe this was all caused by a vast right wing conspiracy, it is NOT Senator Obama's fault.

[KimberlyKay]

Senator Obama is NOT Rush Limbaugh. Rush Limbaugh is Rush Limbaugh and he is currently doing everything he can to bloody up Senator Obama by asking his self-labelled "ditto heads" to cross party lines and vote for Senator Clinton. If you don't believe me, listen to his radio talk show.

[KimberlyKay]

Senator Obama is NOT Ken Starr. Ken Starr is Ken Starr and he is currently the Dean of Pepperdine's School of Law. He is not on Senator Obama's campaign.

[KimberlyKay]

More than half of us have not trusted Senator Clinton since 1994. Senator Clinton's 90's healthcare plan failed. This is NOT Senator Obama's fault.

[TiffShelton]

Test!

[TiffShelton]

Yep I was censored. Why can't we discuss Rev. Manning?

[JonStewart4President]

Because it has nothing to do with this story maybe and it's irrelevant? Works for me.

[gaiilonfong]

Ya think this will be on Taylor Cesspool Marsh's degenerate blog?

[jvarga]

Yeah but just to call us all sexist.

[BrooklynLager]

I just checked. Take a wild guess what they're talking about.

Everytime she lies so blantantly, a superdelegate gets its Obama wings.

[BeyondGoodAndEvil]

LOL

[msemper]

I cant believe a word the comes out to hillary's mouth she is a big lier. the real problem is that she is not a good one! She lies about the war she lies about NATF she lies about her experience. so every thing she say is bullS***T. the put me over the ever the Michigan and Floria vote. in January she stated the votes will not count now she bitching that the vote are losing there rights. If she was up we know would say screw the voter.

[KDH]

Lies? Those were just little fibs and exaggerations. Obama is the liar. And no one is going to forget about him telling a blatent and intentional lie that he wasnt in church during Wright's hate sermons. They'll soon forget or wont care about Hillary's little fibs....but not Obama's big lies.

[KimberlyKay]

Senator Clinton lied about being under fire and you don't think the Republicans would have a field day with that one? I know some Republicans and I can tell you they are already having lots of fun with it. Also, 3 out of context snippets do not make a hate sermon-- have you any proof? Thought not.

[veteran1964]

You people are amazing. All you can talk about is a preacher preaching and preaching again. You people need to get a life. I wonder how many of your white friends have gathered in a group and discussed racial slurs.........Oh yeah, I forgot......you people are perfect and have never talked about a race or a president or an economy in a rude way.....Oh you are so perfect. Why don't you talk about your ideas in solving the homelessness in the U.S. or the housing situation, or the lack of jobs, or the high price of gasoline, or the Fed's current devaluating of our money, or the poor that can't find a job, or how the rich and Corporate America is skimming all of us for power. Grow up and get off a dumb sermon.

[alamantra]

He hasn't been shown to be in church when Rev. Wright made the particular statements that have been shown in an endless loop. In fact, it has been shown that he was in another state. I guess this week the worm turns as we find out the whole context of the sermon from which a few sound-bites were taken. ...Turns out the Reverand's comment about "chickens comin' home to roost' were him quoting an ambassador the week after the tragedy of Sept. 11th. The sermon is actually quite poetic and beautiful:

[chi]

Wrirht's sermons are on video,trust me if Obama was there during those sermons,it would have been all over CNN and Fox by now.

[JonStewart4President]

Blah blah Preacher blah blah. Get OVER it. Not every topic and issue regarding anything else by anyong else, has to be related back to this Preacher story. Get over it! It's like Tourettes with you people at this point.

[jeancall]

I am not presenting this to support the candidacy of Ms. Clinton, but I have to defend her, based on the video. It starts with a greeting in the initial airport. Yes, there was not hostile fire. But the end of the video says, "Later this day she will fly to visit troops." THERE, it could have been a little more risky. We do not know how far away the sniper fire was, but there could have been sounds of fire, when she arrived to see the troops. ?????????

[AntonBursch]

The reporters that were there, such as NBCs Andrea Mitchell, who was on the plane and with Hillary for the trip to Bosnia, are saying that Hillary is LYING!!!

[chronic]

Was that gun fire I heard?

[ConnieB]

Yep, duck! It's the Drama Queen!

[GoBamaGo]

Here we go again, the Hillry camp trying to deflect.

[HowietheScreamer]

Maybe she should get some of those Wonder Woman Braceletts?

[riverhorse]

Reverend Wright had blessed the trip.

[msemper]

You may be right...lol

[huffhuffpass]

So dangerous she took her then 16 year old daughter!

[Whinger]

What can I tell you, her imagination is 100%.

[Yomper]

O.K. Huffposters you have convinced me [and others I imagine{] that the Dems are all liars and exaggerators and as such are not worthy of high office and as I would never vote GOP I'll just sit this one out and see how President John McCain handles the job.

[chi]

what?

[SZM]

Good idea,worked well with Bush didn't it??? Dummy

[StephenJK]

Yeah and what's your imagination say when you deboard from a C-17 in a forward area in a hostile fire zone? Let's hear what YOU think. I'm interested because I know US Army protocol. I had Top Secret clearance due to the nature of my job in Kaiserslautern, Germany. I'd love to hear what you think about the whole thing.

[SZM]

Yeah so what, what's that got to do with the fact that she lied??? Doesn't matter whether or not the "hostile fire zone" had the potential to receive incoming fire. Hillary said she was under "sniper fire" while she exited the airstrip, which didn't happen. Your experiences, (while I'm sure they were admirable), have nothing to do with this.

[veteran1964]

I really don't think that the voters that are crying over her and voting for her have heard one bit of her lies, or rather believed that she is wrong. Remember,,­,,,,,,,She will lie to get the power she HAS TO HAVE. POWER HUNGRY

[naugiedoggie]

Would you be happy if all the supporters of Hillary Clinton stayed home on election day? Do you think Barack Obama would be elected President if that should happen?

[TruthBeTold4us]

People are asking where is the news media in the coverage of Hillary Clinton's lies about her Bosnia trip, among other things.

[TruthBeTold4us]

My post was censored! The entire post talked about Bill Clinton's signing the Telecommunications Act of 1996 and how that allowed the media to consolidate and become the big power that they now are, run by a handful of corporate CEO's, and how that could explain the media's ignoring Hillary's Bosnia fiasco. Reward for a job well done by Bill Clinton. Why was this part left off?????

[StephenJK]

Which part was left off? LOL

[BeyondGoodAndEvil]

Blame the moderator on this thread. They also removed my link to the DLC on my post.
