WHY did Hillary lie about being under sniper fire in Bosnia?

It is no simple case of misspeaking. It was a lie! What does this say about her fitness to hold public office?

    She wanted to lie and say she had war experience like McCain has in spades! Plus she wanted to try to get more of the liberal sympathy vote! Too bad she fell flat on her face though!

    She will stop at nothing to get what she wants. She also lied about having so much influence over the Ireland peace talks as well. Everything she notes as being foreign policy experience has turned out to be a lie.

    She lies all the time. She lied about her daughter being jogging on 9/11 right near the World Trade Center and made up some crazy story about how her daughter was only saved that day because she went into a coffee shop. She's looking for attention thats all.

    Because she's trying to exaggerate her experience. It's really sad, she can't beat Barack on the level, so she lies and tries to discredit him through guilt-by-association. Personally I might have voted for her but I'm so sickened by her behavior in this campaign that now there's no way. It's like she's shocked and insulted that Obama would dare challenge her run for presidency!

    P.S. People who lie so easily that they believe their own lies are called sociopaths or psychopaths.

    If you want the country to go down the tube so to speak elect either Obama or Clinton as the next President! Both have flaws in their character!

    When she feels backed into a corner, as she does now that her campaign is doing so poorly, she has been known to appear desperate.

    Lying about something she must have remembered was filmed by a major network was an act of desperation.

    Look for more to come...

    When did she ever stop lying? As far as I know, her entire life is based on lies. Why should she stop the formula now? It worked for Willy. Besides, many people still like to believe everything a crook tells them.

    She is a politician. She has been lying her entire life to get what she wants. She has been in politics for so long she doesn't know whats true and whats not anymore. America is sick of Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton. Stop the BS.

    It is not a lie if SHE actually believes it. It's a pathological delusion.

    The same reason george w bush lies about when he went AWOL from the ANG. The truth is too unpleasant for them to face.
