As more details come out concerning the former First Lady's trip to Bosnia the entire affair reads more and more like an SNL skit. Evidenced by the fact that accompanying Mrs. Clinton on her trip through the heart of darkness were her stalwart companions Cheryl Crow and Sinbad! No, not Sinbad the Sailor, who could kick some legendary ass, but Sinbad the Comedian. You know, Sinbad, the guy that was on the Cosby spin-off, did a terrible Christmas movie with the Governator. Yea, that guy!
When questioned about the incident, Sinbad was quoted in the Washington Post as saying, "What kind of president would say, 'Hey, man, I can't go 'cause I might get shot so I'm going to send my wife...oh, and take a guitar player and a comedian with you."
That might be the funniest line Sinbad has had for quite some time. (Coincidentally, the photo in the Post showed Sinbad kicking off the 2007 Wal-Mart shareholder's meeting, which might give you a clue as to his comedic talents.) It also demonstrates how ridiculous this entire episode has become. Seriously, is it possible to take anything the Clintons say at face value without a little voice in the back of your head going, "Is that really true?" All politicians tend to stretch the truth now and then, regardless of their party affiliations. But c'mon, this candidate is running on her experience and gravitas, insinuating that Obama is a light-weight compared to her. Does she actually have any experience or does Hillary count accepting bouquets from 12 year old Bosnia girls as a foreign policy engagement?
