Sinbad calls out Clinton about sniper fire remark

Yesterday, Hillary Clinton issued a clarification over comments she made last week in regards to a 1996 humanitarian aid trip to Bosnia.

Describing a landing marred by 'sniper fire', Clinton went on to say that she and her group had to 'run with our heads down' to avoid enemy fire.

Comedian Sinbad (also on the trip) was the first to publicly question Clinton's remark.

“I never felt that I was in a dangerous position,” Sinbad told the Washington Post last week. “I never felt being in a sense of peril, or ‘Oh, God, I hope I’m going to be okay when I get out of this helicopter or when I get out of this tank,” he said.

Additionally, a video showing Clinton casually strolling off the plane has also emerged.

Clinton has responded saying she 'misspoke' and blamed her inaccuracy on a hectic speaking schedule.

"I say a lot of things -- millions of words a day -- so if I misspoke, that was just a misstatement," she said.

Tommy Vietor, a spokesman for rival Sen. Barack Obama's campaign, said the Bosnia claim was part of "a growing list of instances in which Sen. Clinton has exaggerated her role in foreign and domestic policy making."

CNN has the full story.

An inflated sense of self worth was bound to catch up with Hillary sooner or later. But as political history confirms, no one back peddles like a Clinton.
