HRCs Bosnia trip? "I think the only 'red-phone' moment was: 'Do we eat here or at the next place.'"

Sinbad Unloads on Hillary Clinton

Finally, the Barack Obama campaign has found a big gun to help shoot down Hillary Rodham Clinton's self-proclaimed foreign policy experience. And he may be the wackiest gun of all: Sinbad, the actor, who has come out from under a rock to defend Obama in the war over foreign policy credentials.

-snip-

In an interview with the Sleuth Monday, he said the "scariest" part of the trip was wondering where he'd eat next. "I think the only 'red-phone' moment was: 'Do we eat here or at the next place.'"

Clinton, during a late December campaign appearance in Iowa, described a hair-raising corkscrew landing in war-torn Bosnia, a trip she took with her then-teenage daughter, Chelsea. "They said there might be sniper fire," Clinton said.

Threat of bullets? Sinbad doesn't remember that, either.

"I never felt that I was in a dangerous position. I never felt being in a sense of peril, or 'Oh, God, I hope I'm going to be OK when I get out of this helicopter or when I get out of his tank.'"

In her Iowa stump speech, Clinton also said, "We used to say in the White House that if a place is too dangerous, too small or too poor, send the First Lady."

Say what? As Sinbad put it: "What kind of president would say, 'Hey, man, I can't go 'cause I might get shot so I'm going to send my wife...oh, and take a guitar player and a comedian with you.'"

1. Well let's hear what Sheryl Crow has to say.
This is about the lamest attempt yet by Obama surrogates if you ask me.

4. ROFL
Ok, all you Hillbots have when someone speaks out against HRC is you turning around and calling us rethugs.

It wasnt a McCain quote, it was a quote from one of the entertainers who traveled with her on this tour.

8. It's just POSSIBLE that Sinbad was too fucking stupid to know what was going on.
It's not like he's the sharpest knife in the comedy drawer ... ahem.
