VALPARAISO, Indiana (CNN) — Hillary Clinton appealed to Second Amendment supporters on Saturday by hinting that she has some experience of her own pulling triggers.
“I disagree with Sen. Obama’s assertion that people in our country cling to guns and have certain attitudes about trade and immigration simply out of frustration,” she began, referring to the Obama comments on small-town Americans that set off a political tumult on Friday.
She then introduced a fond memory from her youth.
“You know, my dad took me out behind the cottage that my grandfather built on a little lake called Lake Winola outside of Scranton and taught be how to shoot when I was a little girl,” she said.

Duck, duck, duck....GOOSE!
It is really important for each of you [kids] to make sure you stay away from guns. If you have guns in your home, tell your parents to keep them away from you and your friends and your little brothers and sisters.
We have to do everything possible to keep guns out of the hands of children, and we need to stand firm on behalf of the sensible gun control legislation that passed the Senate and then was watered down in the House.
— Hillary Clinton, July 1999
Hillary has finally learned the rule followed by all criminals: If there’s no one around to disprove you, you can claim anything you want.
LIAR!
I'm sure, Jimmah "Malai$e" CarTURD and Al "Buddi$t Monk$" Gore, should be in "the sights/cross-hairs" of the Little Rock Mafia, by now....or soon will be.
While I'm skeptical about her experience with guns, she's got a lot with lamps, chairs and ashtrays. Just ask Bill.
Maybe that experience with guns is what made her try to join the Marine Corps!
Will this compulsive liar ever stop these fabrications?
The only thing Hillary has ever shot was B.S.
Ever hear of Arkancide?
"Can I get me a huntin' license here."
What amazes me is that she's supposedly "lived" in so many places when she was younger. Pennsylvania, Illinois, Arkansas, New York...not to say it isn't possible, but it just strikes me funny. Her track record suggests much of it had to be embellished.
Another Lie du Jour.
This pathetic woman has done more than Forrest Gump.

How come we have never heard this story before? Could it be she has never been behind in a race before and she didn’t need the “redneck” vote. Naw!
No
Isn’t this going to hurt her a lot with the left wing, gun hating crowd? Sarah Brady and her ilk must be furious. Though they know she probably doesn’t really mean it.

She’s convinced me, I believe her. /s
Maybe she could teach Dick Cheney
a thing or two about duck hunting!
"It is really important for each of you [kids] to make sure you stay away from guns. If you have guns in your home, tell your parents to keep them away from you and your friends and your little brothers and sisters.My own preference is the NRA's Eddie Eagle training for kids. My daughter learned well from that. She's now 14, and quite the marksman."We have to do everything possible to keep guns out of the hands of children,..."
As to that other crap, about gun control legislation, the less said the better...
