Last week on at least two occasions Hillary Clinton said the following regarding a trip she took to Bosnia as First Lady:
“I certainly do remember that trip to Bosnia. 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. I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base.”
Then, several youtube videos appeared contradicting Mrs. Clinton's remarks, showing her and her daughter being met at the airport by a greeting party that included a young girl who read a poem for her. There was no running with heads down, and indeed as good a mother as she seems to be I cannot imagine she would take Chelsea with her should she think she might be subjected to sniper fire.
Today the Clinton campaign said she "misspoke." These two - Bill and Hillary - really are two identical peas in a pod. But then I guess it all depends on what the meaning of "sniper fire" is.
