Sinbad Unloads on Hillary Clinton-(Destroys Hillary's KOSOVO Myth!)
WaPo ^ | 3-11-08 | Mary Ann Akers

Finally, the Barack Obama campaign has found a big gun to help shoot down Hillary Rodham Clinton's self-proclaimed foreign policy experience. And he may be the wackiest gun of all: Sinbad, the actor, who has come out from under a rock to defend Obama in the war over foreign policy credentials.

Sinbad, along with singer Sheryl Crow, was on that 1996 trip to Bosnia that Clinton has described as a harrowing international experience that makes her tested and ready to answer a 3 a.m. phone call at the White House on day one, a claim for which she's taking much grief on the campaign trail.

(Snip)

In an interview with the Sleuth Monday, he said the "scariest" part of the trip was wondering where he'd eat next. "I think the only 'red-phone' moment was: 'Do we eat here or at the next place.'"

Clinton, during a late December campaign appearance in Iowa, described a hair-raising corkscrew landing in war-torn Bosnia, a trip she took with her then-teenage daughter, Chelsea. "They said there might be sniper fire," Clinton said.

Threat of bullets? Sinbad doesn't remember that, either.

"I never felt that I was in a dangerous position. I never felt being in a sense of peril, or 'Oh, God, I hope I'm going to be OK when I get out of this helicopter or when I get out of his tank.'"

In her Iowa stump speech, Clinton also said, "We used to say in the White House that if a place is too dangerous, too small or too poor, send the First Lady."

"As Sinbad put it: "What kind of president would say, 'Hey, man, I can't go 'cause I might get shot so I'm going to send my wife...oh, and take a guitar player and a comedian with you""

This nightmare for the Democrat Party just keeps getting funnier and funnier!

“We used to say in the White House that if a place is too dangerous, too small or too poor, send the First Lady.”

Because Bill was getting his elsewhere and couldn’t answer the phone.

I always liked Sinbad but he seems to have disappeared the last few years. What happened to him?

That's more of a comment on Bill's fantasies than Hill's abilities, IMO.

Everything the Clintons say is a lie. It’s fun to watch people like Sinbad call them on it.

LOL...because Bill was hoping to avoid an unnecessary and messy divorce.

Hillary tells such ridiculous lies, all the time, her staff must be terrified to warn her what a fool she’s making of herself. Of course, the MSM willingly swallows and spreads these lies, so she usually gets away with them.

“Hillary tells such ridiculous lies, all the time, her staff must be terrified to warn her what a fool she’s making of herself. Of course, the MSM willingly swallows and spreads these lies, so she usually gets away with them.”

And THAT, in a nutshell, is what has her staff and the Shadow Party quaking in thier boots.

Thier sheep aren’t braying as ordered, and as soon as they found someone they liked better, went running WAY from the Royal Pretender...

After the Dayton peace agreement in the fall of 1995 the fighting in Bosnia stopped. By the spring of 1996 there was very little risk going to Bosnia. If there had been any danger, you can be sure Hillary wouldn't have gone there.

This time around having gone to Bosnia will be a qualification for being elected, just as in 2004 having been sent to Cambodia by President-elect Nixon was one of Kerry's experiences that qualified him to be Commander in Chief.

...if a place is too small, or too poor....

Sounds like their domestic policy also.

Hitlery is only interested in the big states.

I do know he's doing a show in Phoenix in May.

Why would a flight scare Sinbad anyway. He was a Boom Operator in the KC-135A and in the class behind me when we were both at Castle AFB, CA in 1979. From the guys he flew with at McConnell AFB, KS he was a crack up on Alert, but was not a very good Boomer. Still a funny guy!

Policy by Sinbad. Wonder if the post for Sec. State has been promised?

It would be funny if the stakes weren’t so high. I am looking for a great hidey hole for the family if these clowns win.
