Hillary Clinton receives $250,000 in speaking fees - peanuts compared to Bill - but I'll bet she'd give it all back to avoid this kind of embarrassment.
Hillary ducked and then joked about the incident:
Mark Carpenter, a representative for the organization hosting the event — the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries — stressed that the woman “was not affiliated with our organization and was not credentialed for this event.”
“Our staff denied her access before she later rushed past security,” he continued in a statement. “An ISRI staffer then stopped her as she approached the stage. She was then handed over to law enforcement.”
The incident is reminiscent of a 2008 scene in which then-President George W. Bush ducked during a news conference in Baghdad when an Iraqi attendee threw two shoes at him.

Probably a staff member of her publicity team.
Maybe it was contrived, stagea but those pictures of her are a horror. For someone like that to possibly be president of the US. I like to steam liberals off by saying “I don’t think she can be elected at 79 years old” because they always go out of their way to correct me, “She 69 years old, not 79”. Even if it is Hillary and some others, I don’t like to say detracting things about women but let it be, she looks like “Her Frumpiness” and I don’t really say that to be mean or offend anyone.
"Is this bat country?"
Too bad she wasnt at an NHL event
Probably one of those women Bill dallied with only to have the beast come after her in order to destroy her life. Or maybe it is a daughter of one of those gals.
Or...could be a Benghazi relative.
In either of those cases, I doubt the MSM would want to pursue the show thrower.
Ilene Rosen, the wife of a conventioneer from Denver who was seated in the second row, said she saw an orange object fly toward the stage from a side aisle and papers fluttering in the air.Rosen said the woman had walked to a rope line within six rows of the front of the seating area, threw the items, turned around, put her hands in the air and walked up the aisle toward the back of the room. Security officers quickly caught up with her.
In the hotel hallway, the middle-aged blonde woman sat calmly on a sofa, wearing a blue dress and thong sandals. She said she threw a shoe and dropped some papers, but didnt identify herself to reporters or explain the action. Security officials then ushered reporters and photographers away.
Spellacy and Mark Carpenter, spokesman for the recycling institute, said the woman wasnt a credentialed convention member and wasnt supposed to have been in the ballroom.
An attendee sitting near Rosen later handed a reporter a piece of paper that he said the woman threw. It appeared to be a declassified copy of a Department of Defense document labeled confidential and dated August 1967; it referred to a Bolivian Army operation called Cynthia in Bolivia.
The close up is frightening. She’s not aged well.
President Bush reacted instantly, like a former fighter pilot would. Hillary didn’t duck until the thing was 5 feet behind her.
Someone was just trying to help the sole-less b!tch
My thoughts exactly. Everything is scripted with commies like Hillary and Barry. Nothing just “happens” with them.
The papers she threw were strange, something about classified work in Bolivia in 1967.
She can move pretty fast when she has to. Just like when they were shooting at her on the tarmac in Bosnia.
There’s no business like shoe business.
""I'm Buster Brown, I live in a shoe. That's my dog, Tige, he lives there too!" ;)
.....a scrap recycling convention? Whognu?
“Was that a bat?” No, the bat was the target of a flying shoe.
