My God, will she never learn? It really doesn't say good things for a person when they continue to try and get away with this stuff, especially having been so embarrassed by it in the past. Battle tested from Belfast to Bosnia, that's our Hillary. Indeed. Too bad it simply isn't true.
Mrs Clinton told assembled politicians at Stormont: “When Bill and I first came to Belfast we stayed at the Europa Hotel ... even though then there were sections boarded up because of damage from bombs.”
However, the last Provisional IRA bomb to damage the Europa was detonated in 1993, two years before President Clinton and his wife checked in for the night.
The last time the Europa underwent renovations because of bomb blast damage was in January 1994, 22 months before the presidential entourage booked 110 rooms at the hotel.
During the presidential campaign Mrs Clinton drew on her Bosnia experience, saying: ”I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport but we just ran with our heads down to get in the vehicles to get to our base.”
Give her a break. She meant 1993 when she & Bill visted under super secret, decoder ringer, fingers crossed, covert cover. She can prove it too. It's with the rest of her Rose Law Firm documents.
