The news reports from that trip seemed to miss that part though.... more details of her heroic support of the troops at the link: http://newsbusters.org/blogs/rich-n...t-96-no-media-mention-bosnia-sniper-fireHillary Shot At in '96? No Media Mention of Bosnia 'Sniper Fire' By Rich Noyes | March 18, 2008 - 14:44 ET In a speech on Iraq policy delivered Monday at George Washington University, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton recalled facing �sniper fire� on her 1996 trip to Bosnia to visit U.S. troops on a peacekeeping mission. But reporters traveling with the then-First Lady made no reference to any �sniper fire� at the time, and pictures of Clinton arriving at the main air base in Tuzla don�t show anyone ducking or covering.

The bad guys needed the right kind of radios. I'm sure some of our guys would have helped them walk the rounds in to the target.

I just happened to be in that part of the world in 93.... I can say with confidence that those folks didn't use cap guns and that bitch didn't get within five miles of a sniper in 96...

Hillary recalls "facing sniper fire" during 1996 trip to Bosnia Yepper, but that was from our guys....

No, No, No - Maybe she did "land under sniper fire".
As the plane landed there might have been sniper fire 5 miles from the airport, thus she laneded under sniper fire.

His fingers are not under her d'ress! Think of how long those guys have gone without some tail..first "woman" comes along is the HildaBeast. Kinda makes you extra- appreciate the sacrifice they make.

what black actor/commedian was with her? Sinbad? I hear he said that the most stressful part of the trip was finding a place to eat.

"- Hillary Clinton recalled facing �sniper fire�- "
Later after questioning & consult from bill she went on the record to state "But really, what is sniper fire? Aren't we all in some sense & at some times facing 'sniper fire'?"
Something clever here.

Closest thing to a military record she could get, I suppose . . . . and she wasn't lying, she was campaigning. How can you tell when a liberal is lying? . . . . . . Their lips are moving.
