Clinton's foreign experience is more limited than she says
On the stump, Clinton also touts her visits to war zones. She describes a harrowing flight into Bosnia, where her plane had to make a corkscrew landing to avoid enemy fire.

The comedian Sinbad, who accompanied Clinton on the Bosnia trip along with singer Sheryl Crow, disputed Clinton's description of the danger.


"I think the only 'red phone' moment was: Do we eat here or at the next place?" Sinbad told The Washington Post on Monday. "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." Sinbad supports Obama.

So Hill likes to make up stories. This lying is getting sickening.

Ask ANY Viet Nam veteran who flew into Saigon what the landing was like. DC-8's and 707's cork-screwing in steep dives and angles to avoid anti-aircraft fire. Exhilarating yes. Harrowing not so much. Sinbad saw the lie and has called her on it. Just another nail in the coffin of the Clinton machine.
