Nothing like a suddenly released video to puncture a bit of verbal peacocking. There's nothing like claiming that you landed in a foreign country under sniper fire when you're trying to fluff up your foreign policy street cred. Barack Obama confronts damning video by turning it into a teaching moment. Hillary Clinton confronts damning video by claiming she "mispoke." It was a "minor blip." A "comma" if you will. By the way, if I ever claimed that I was a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist who reported while under fire in Somolia, I misspoke.
