How dumb does she think we are?

Hillary Clinton says she "misspoke" when she said last week, "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."

She was speaking of a trip to Bosnia she made in 1996 while she was First Lady. She only realized she "misspoke" when the media dug up news footage of the event where Hillary and her entourage, smiling and quite calm, were seen shaking hands and posing for pictures.

I had not heard Hillary's tall tale until they started showing the 1996 film on the news. But if I had heard it, I would have known immediately the story was a fabrication.

1) Do you really think the Secret Service would have allowed her plane to land "under sniper fire"?
2) If they had allowed her plane to land, do you think they would have allowed her to disembark and dodge bullets to her car?
3) If they had allowed her plane to land, and allowed her to dodge bullets to her car, do you think CNN, Fox, MSNBC, and all the other media wouldn't have had 24-hour coverage of the First Lady of the United States being fired upon?

Remember when she told a reporter she was named for Sir Edmund Hillary? And how she had to backtrack on that when someone in the media said, "Wait a minute. Something doesn't add up. Sir Edmund Hillary reached the summit of Everest in 1953 and Hillary was born in 1947." How dumb does she think we are? But then again, there are 25,993,202 people out there who have voted for either her or Barack. Maybe we really are that dumb!

Majority of people who support Hillary are soccer moms. It's now proven that the term "soccer mom" can be applied to women who uses only 1/4 of their brain.
