Maybe she was the one who inhaled

Hillary using a Bosnian child as a shield from snipers in 1996.

"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."
--Hillary Clinton, speech at George Washington University, March 17, 2008.

Hillary Clinton has been regaling supporters on the campaign trail with hair-raising tales of a trip she made to Bosnia in March 1996. In her retelling, she was sent to places that her husband, President Clinton, could not go because they were "too dangerous." When her account was the comedian Sinbad, who was with her on the trip, she upped the ante and injected even more drama into the story.

The Washington Post reports that there are "numerous problems" with Clinton's version of events.

Clearly you don't want to cross Sinbad, whom we all remember from Star Search. According to Sinbad, who provided entertainment on the trip along with the singer Sheryl Crow, the "scariest" part was deciding where to eat. Sinbad pointed out the obvious flaw in the premise behind the Clinton version of events.

"What kind of president would say 'Hey man, I can't go 'cause I might get shot so I'm going to send my wife. Oh, and take a guitar player and a comedian with you."

When you really think about it, though, Sinbad may be wrong here. Count me among those who think Bill may well have said, "Let's see there's a chance Hillary may get shot? Monica, that would be a real shame, wouldn't it?"
