The obvious one. That she was shot at by snipers.
Hillary Shot At in '96? No Media Mention of Bosnia 'Sniper Fire'

3 hours?? I heard it was 90 million hours because the outfit was being flown in from Mars.

Okay, I found a European news source. She came in on a US Coast Guard plane that was carrying food, water and other supplies. The same plane was used to carry 50 Americans back home.

So, now the only issue is whether the airport was shut down for 3 hours because she was on the plane.

She is arrogant and demanding. It is no secret that she dislikes the military. I would not be surprised if this were true. Nor would I care because of the fact we are delivering aid. We have a Carrier task force parked off the coast of haiti at a cost of millions per day. We sent a hospital ship. We are sending food, water and medicine.
The only thing that we have not sent is god.
I am not the biggest Obama fan but he did this one right.
Military in first to secure the area and restore some order. Establish landing areas and a support networks.
Then he sent in food and water via the airport that WE the USA restored to working order.
The criers and the whiners can complain all they like. It was not the UN who got the ball rolling it was Obama. It wasn't France who restored an airport to working order it was the USA.

You find this thread believable? I find it high fiction.

What I always wonder in a case like this, is why do these people go in the first place?
Do they need to verify the conditions?Don't they believe it unless they see it for themselves?
Is aid held up until they report back?

Or are they just showing us how 'concerned' they are?
Does it boost the moral of the kid lying there with his leg needing amputation?

This is classic Rushbot stuff.

About as good as anything the Democonfused crowd has come up with How about all the crap that moveonracist.org or the huffing glue post come up with

Can't say anything BUT baseless blather has come from them lately
