Have these easy questions been asked about Hillary's sniper fire incident and if not why?
First off, sorry if this has question has already been brought up or if this as already been announced.


Okay we have all heard the story about her running with her head down during sniper fire in Bosnia. She paints a very vivid picture while telling this story. So, clearly she must have been shot at at some time. There is no way she could misspeak or misremember about being shot at.


1. So, where was she at when she was being shot at? If she could give a time and a place close to her Bosnia visit the press would probably give her a pass and drop it. So have they asked her and why not? And if not she should just tell us so we can move on from this.

2. If there was no sniper fire what does that say about her memory or leadership ability?


Clearly know one would misremember about being shot at. So where did it happen?

No, but she could just lie about it.

5. science shmience I spent 10 years travelling to far out out posts in Asia
I can't remember most of them worth crap. But a couple of times the helicopters had a rough ride and we were frightened I remember every single second of those trips including the names of the dogs that the Indonesian general had on the trip 20 years ago.

If your scared, really scared you remember - that is an evolutionary fact.

6. Oh, yeah....
...people MISREMEMBER being shot at all the time!

Well, just the other day, I was saying to a friend about how fucking scared I was when I was living in LA and the Watts Riots were going on...

...only problem is that I was not living in Los Angeles at that time.

Oooooops, I guess I did not lie...I just MISREMEMBERED, right?

:rofl:

2. welcome to DU
She said there was sniper fire the moment she got off the chopper and had to be rushed out of there. The footage clearly shows that to be BS from the very start.

3. I'm not a Clinton hater but this should really be examined more. She
can't just say "woops I didn't mean that I was shot at" She needs to be clear on what event she WAS talking about. Saying you were shot at if you weren't is not just a slip of the tongue.

10. no, it was clearly a lie
What's puzzling is why she would tell one that would be so easily proven to be a lie.

7. Bosnia was at peace at the time for over a year
The press has already reported she was NEVER shot at, that it would have been the lead story if she had been.

She has a mild Munchausen Syndrome in my estimation.

Which would perhaps make the second worst President in history.

8. As an Obama supporter I must say
That this is as lame and manufactured an outrage as the "Wright scandal". So she lied, big fucking deal, she's a politician! If her mouth is open she's probably lying. Obama lies, Bill lied, Hillary lied, big fucking deal. None of them lied us into a war and they aren't trying to lie us into another war, unlike the Republican candidate who we are supposed to be trying to beat in the GE.
