Clinton "Misspoke"

During a speech last Monday on Iraq, [Hillary Clinton] said of the Bosnia trip: "I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base."

Uh, no, Hillary. There was a greeting ceremony. You didn't run with your head down. In fact, a little girl read a poem to you on the tarmac. Remember now?

The Clinton campaign is now saying Hillary Clinton "misspoke" about ducking from sniper fire after landing on a Bosnian airstrip in Tuzla in 1996, after video from that trip emerged showing a scenario quite contrary to Clinton's remembrance. She later characterized the episode as a "misstatement" and a "minor blip."

Let's get something straight Ms. Ready-To-Lead-On-Day-One: Statements off the cuff, in an impromptu manner is "misspeaking." When your "misstatement" is written in prepared remarks, it's called MISLEADING.

To shrug this off as misremembering a certain event is completely disingenuous. Whether or not you met a specific person somewhere is a "misstatement." Remembering who was at what meeting is "a minor blip." But I think you'd probably remember very specifically whether or not you had been shot at!
