I already despised Hillary Clinton, but the news that she MADE UP most of her ridiculous story about taking gunfire while landing in Bosnia seems to have shredded whatever dignity and positive image she had left.
I found this recap of Hillary’s Bosniagate on a website called “Newsbusters:”
[D]uring a speech last week on Iraq, Clinton stretched the truth to the breaking point. “I certainly do remember that trip to Bosnia and … there was a saying around the White House that if a place was too small, too poor, or too dangerous, the president couldn’t go, so send the first lady. That’s where we went. I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base.”
Hogwash. The truth is:
_ There was no sniper fire.
_ Nobody ducked for cover.
_ Bad weather, not security concerns, kept her husband from making the same trip a few months earlier.
Clinton and her aides stood behind the story _ which she has told more than once _ until video surfaced showing the former first lady, her daughter, Chelsea, and their entourage strolling off the plane and walking calmly across the tarmac.
There are many other examples of Hillary’s “truthiness” problem at this link. Be sure to read them when you have time if you have any doubt as to what a “mentirosa” Hillary is.
At least Senator Barack Obama had the decency to stand up and deliver perhaps the greatest speech of his life when the scandal involving his minister broke. Hillary reacts to scandal by trying to lie her way out of it! If she was Pinocchio her nose would be longer than her arm!
Once again we have proof that Hillary is an absolutely abominable candidate. Yet just watch as her embittered supporters comes to her defense again. Will they never learn?
I tried to defend her on another site. I think my exact words were, “just giving my girl a head start.”
Yeah, I’m not sure why I bothered either. I defended Albright. I defended Carville. I can’t defend her this time. She screwed this one up royally and all by her lonesome. 🙁
And to get called out by Sinbad? Ouch.

That’s not true. Her husband came to Santa Ana.
Who is Barry Obama? And are his books merely a reinvention tool?
The kicker was when she dismissed the lie by saying she simply “misspoke”.
WOW.
Boy, Hillary…
