Clinton Misstates Wife's Bosnia Tale

WASHINGTON (AP) - Former President Clinton has added to the falsehoods surrounding his wife's tale of her trip to Bosnia 12 years ago. In Indiana on Thursday, Bill Clinton defended his wife's mistake in claiming that she landed under sniper fire in Bosnia, accusing the media of treating her like "she'd robbed a bank" for confusing the facts.

Does anyone else think these little "gaffes" are planned and planted with the intent to obfuscate and divert attention away from the real meaty issues? Maybe I'm just jaded and suffering from campaign burn-out. This process is entirely too long.

If obama was not in the race - this statement would never be mentioned by the soros controlled liberal/socialist media!!!

As it is, when clinton makes a mistake the soros obama friendly media jumps down her throat and murders her!!!

When obama lies or misleads the soros communist media gives him a big pass - or barely mentions it!!!

billy was stupid to bring it up again only because it gave the obama-soros controlled media a chance to bring it up again!!!

These liars are back again to fool americans and get into office. Clinton is making fun of america. He thinks America is dumb.
It is too easy to lie and play the race card to get into the white house. What a pity.

Go Obama.

LOL! Bill Clinton just can't keep that stupid mouth of his shut!

Keep going Billy, you just keep firing those torpedoes at your 'wifes' sinking campaign. This is delicious.

Personally, Obama needs to run with this stuff, all of it. When somebody lands a golden goose right in your lap, you don't ignore or waste it. At least, you shouldn't do that. How many are wondering what these people will do after they are elected, and you can't do anything to them? What kind of deals will they do behind the scenes? These are the people that will sell the American people out, lock, stock and barrel. They are so arrogant, they are doing it right in front of the faces of the voters in PA, and laughing their a**es off. This makes me sick to my stomach. Just when I think there is something worth trusting in these people. They never CHANGE. The people in PA will get exactly what they deserve---not much of anything.

After hearing Obama's Pastor, the "GOOD" Reverend Wrong say the things that he has said in front of the whole nation, I am not surprised that there are STILL IDIOTS out there that think he didn't "MEAN" any of it and it was "TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT". These people who believe this way do not even KNOW the correct meaning of the word "context".

Why don't they just leave Hillary's statements alone if they CAN'T CLEAN UP THEIR OWN ACT????

"Bill Clinton defended his wife's mistake in claiming that she landed under sniper fire in Bosnia, accusing the media of treating her like "she'd robbed a bank" for confusing the facts."

Okay...then Mr Bill or Hillary should tell us when & where she ever came "under sniper fire", so we can confirm the incident she mistook for the Bosnia trip.

Then they have grounds for calling it a mistake, instead of a lie.

You need to change your moniker to "dedicate groupie" because, in every post you put up, you are obviously more than "just an observer".

One never knows what will come out of Bill Clinton's mouth. Nor do we want to know what goes into it.

McCain is just a Liberal in Republican's clothing. He's just watering down the party.

No place for a conservative to go, which is just what the party establishment wants.

I'll vote Libertarian.

Very true. Sad and true. These are not good times for America.

Unfortunately neither party follows the Constitution which for all intensive purposes died with the Confederacy in 1865.

Those in the Federal Government feel they can do anything they want.

>>...accusing the media of treating her like "she'd robbed a bank" for confusing the facts...

Oh! So there IS something in the world he thinks is wrong to do?

Yeah - it surprised ME too.
