Does former President Bill Clinton regret his error-strewn defense of his wife’s Bosnia sniper-fire story? Does he regret mis-informing voters in Boonville and Jasper, Indiana?
“I regret that people like you care more about that when whether she served the troops,” he told reporters today in Terra Haute, per ABC News’ Sarah Amos.
Bill asks that we focus on her work with the troops, so let’s do that. Here’s a 1996 NY Times piece on her trip titled, “Response by G.I.’s Mixed As Hillary Clinton Visits.” An excerpt:
Another soldier said he thought that it was all right for Mrs. Clinton to visit, but “everyone really wants to see Sheryl Crow and Sinbad.”
Maybe Sinbad should run for president? He’s been proven to have a better memory than Hillary and Bill of public events, worked in nightclubs his whole life (so we know he’s good to go at 3 a.m.) and best of all, he has the troops on his side.
