What was Hillary thinking with the Bosnia story? Why would she even float it?

[still_one]

Does she have that much insecurity in her position or experience that she believes she must pump it up?

Yes, I know politicians are not always completely honest, but she did a very similar thing during the travel scandel under Bill Clinton's administration where she said she had nothing to do with the firings, which were false

I question if within in her personality to admit responsibility for any mistakes she makes?

1. I like the way the Rude Pundit summed it up

"So why exaggerate the story? Why add the sniper fire and death-defying landing? Hmmm - probably because, as the same article by Bill Nichols points out, "The first lady was very careful not to appear as a policymaker on this trip... She referred any policy statements to her husband." In other words, Clinton's Bosnia junket wasn't hardcore enough for her presidential aspirations. It wasn't ballsy enough. It wasn't macho enough. How pathetic is it gonna look if Clinton achieves the impossible and rips the Democratic Party apart in order to be the nominee? The candidate who lied about being shot at while on a plane with her daughter and Sinbad versus the Hanoi Hilton candidate?"

6. Richardson who?

Not saying that the thought they would get caught but whenever they have a terrible news cycle they try and crash the bus so that they can get people off topic.

Samething happened with South Carolina.
