Senator Clinton has stayed up way past her bedtime

Last Thursday in Boonville, IN, former President Bill Clinton attempted to promote his wife and addressed the incident when Senator Hillary Clinton “misspoke” regarding her arrival under sniper fire in Bosnia in 1995. He made excuses for her, explaining that she had been speaking late at night (around 11 PM), was exhausted, and had apologized for her mistake immediately after. Unfortunately, these excuses did not alleviate the situation because of a number of mistakes in his argument and some unintended inferences.

-Senator Clinton’s trip to Bosnia was in 1996, not 1995.
-She did not make the sniper fire claim just once at 11 PM, but a number of times, and had exaggerated the story each time.
-She did not immediately apologize for it and only acknowledged the mistake once the video of her not-so-dangerous arrival was released.

It’s unfortunate as well that Senator Clinton misspoke at 11 PM, especially since she promises to be alert and ready for duty at any time- specifically at 3 AM, which is only 4 hours later.

Well, Senator Clinton. With all due respect, I believe you’ve stayed awake past your bedtime. Please get some rest and drop out of the race! You’ll thank me in the long run.
