#1 This will probably qualify Sinbad to be Obama's Secretary of Defense...

#2 Secretary of the Navy, at least.

#3 Because Secretary of Moronitude is already spoken for?

#4 "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.'" . . .

Oh, that's easy. William Jefferson Clinton.

#5 Clinton, during a late December campaign appearance in Iowa, described a hair-raising corkscrew landing in war-torn Bosnia, a trip she took with her then-teenage daughter, Chelsea. "They said there might be sniper fire," Clinton said.

There also might be a bullshit storm. If the place was so dangerous, why did she take her only daughter with her. Seems to indicate bad judgment on her part.

#6 She should go visit troops on the front lines like the secretary of the Navy does. Then I might take her seriously.

Maybe...

#7 "They said there might be sniper fire," Clinton said.

She's obviously confusing the trip to Bosnia with some Secret Service alternate route she took though parts of DC.

#8 Sinbad. Is that a Muslim name?

#9 Got to put the coffee down before reading these. Getting called a liar by Sinbad.

Double Snarf.

#10 Saw Sinbad on one of his USO tours. He's an ex-boomer:

Sinbad served in the US Air Force as a Boom Operator aboard KC-135 Stratotankers. He was almost dismissed with a dishonorable discharge for various misbehavior including going AWOL.[5]

I didn't make the Air Force basketball team and went into denial. So, I kept going AWOL. My mother kept begging me to go back. I told her, 'No, I'm not going back. I'll just grow a beard. They won't recognize me. I'll just be another Black man with a beard.' I was going to Georgia Tech to learn about computers. I'd go AWOL all the time. I'd just leave. I'd come back, hoping they'd throw me out.

After a series of incidents, he was eventually ejected "for parking my car in the wrong position."

#11 If Hillary answers the telephone at 3 a.m., it probably is to tell some teenage girl that, "There is no Bill here. You have the wrong number."
