Accused in recent days of embellishing her story of a brush with sniper fire in
Bosnia, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton today said "don't be
fooled" by photos showing her being greeted at the airport by a pony-tailed
8-year-old Bosnian girl with a bouquet of flowers.
"That was no little girl," Sen. Clinton told reporters in Gary, Indiana. "That was
a covert ops midget sniper."
The New York senator said that moments after the "so-called little girl" presented
her with the flowers, she revealed what the bouquet had been hiding: "a tiny
semi-automatic weapon."
"Fortunately, I had the presence of mind to use some of the Tae Kwon Do techniques I
had learned in preparation for the Northern Ireland peace talks," she said.
Defending his wife against charges that she had yet again fabricated her exploits
while First Lady, former President Bill Clinton told CNN's John King that
"Democratic voters have a clear choice this election: do they want a liar or a
plagiarist?"
"Hillary tells some real whoppers, but at least they're original," he said.
