| Photos of Hillary being attacked by sniper fire in Bosnia |
| 2008-03-18 |
| Kevin Gregory, "McClatchy Watch" blog Exclusive photos at the link. Click through and admire the steely determination of this iron woman as she taunted the SerboBosniCroatBanian assassins with her defiance. "Your telescopically-aimed Dragunov SVDs can't intimidate me," her eyes seem to be saying. Everyone in the photo seems remarkably calm despite the risk of sniper fire. Hillary has spoken several times about being attacked by snipers that day. . . . Digital Dope has more AP coverage of Hillary's daring 1996 visit. |

| #12 I parsed the title as meaning Bosnian snipers were shooting at photos of Hillary. It seemed like a curious but harmless habit. |

| #10 Don't-cha get it? She was really drawling the elocution of "snapper fire," the Arkansas term for standing in front of a bunch of people "takin' pitchers." Sheesh......! |

| #9 Don't worry so, Mike. Neither she nor her followers would pollute themselves by popping by here -- not when they can check the pulse at DailyKos and wherever it is that beer-drinking Democrats hang out. |

| #8 At least she's not like the wannabe firefighter who sets fires, calls them in, then watches the real firemen come to put it out. Don't give her any ideas, TW! |

| #5 I think her cool reaction is because of that Marine ROTC training she almost thought about maybe looking into... |

| #4 *giggle* There have always been those who needed others to believe they were brave and heroic, 49 Pan. At least she's not like the wannabe firefighter who sets fires, calls them in, then watches the real firemen come to put it out. |

| #3 Every one know that Hillary served in Vietanma on a swiftboat, was wounded three times and got a Silver Star with V for valor. |

| #2 Just another, one of those that never did, playing the war hero. Will this ever end with her??? |

| #1 Either she and everyone else has the calmest nerves I have ever seen, the snipers are so bad of shots that no one noticed, or she is lying out her ass. |
