Your fellow citizens offer food for thought, Part 2

(Comments from Washingtonpost.com's politics blogs:)

On Hillary Clinton's claim that she encountered sniper fire in Bosnia in 1996.

The fact of the matter is, Bosnia WAS a war zone when she visited, she WAS the First Lady, and they would have employed extraordinary safety precautions because there WERE reports of sniper fire in the area, and she WOULD have been whisked from the high risk airport area to a safer place.

And then she jumped out of the plane without a parachute and threw a hand grenade at them and killed all the bad guys and was awarded a Medal of Honor by the president.

I think that we are all blaming the wrong person here. The gullibility of the American public swallowed the line from the wire services. Editors and reporters filtered information that was never questioned by the liberal or conservative elements in America.

You know, she is looking like karl rove in a pantsuit---not good.I'm a so sick and tired of her manipulations and out right lies during this political process. HRC will squander the good of the country all because of her enormous ego and self-denial. And now she is a "agent of change"-- lady, please.

Clinton has shown herself to be completely amateurish in using this Bosnia trip in her campaign, or else she is utterly deluded in thinking that shots actually were fired at her. Clinton ought to have known that people would pounce on her mis-characterizations, and she ought to have known that the First Lady's trip to a war-torn Bosnia would have a paper and video trail stretching into the sunset.

Actually, Hillary was using the little Bosnian girl, Chelsea and the President of Bosnia as "human shields" against the sniper fire.

WHAT FUN!!!

McCain also mislead the public, saying his visit to a Bagdad market was safe, when he was protected troops and helicopters as he spent 10 minutes buying a falafal.
