'No one could breathe for 35 minutes': Hillary Clinton reveals tension in Situation Room
DM ^

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has told how she and the fellow White House officials were so transfixed by live footage of the raid that took out Osama bin Laden raid they couldn't breathe for 35 minutes. In the famous Situation Room picture released by the White House, Mrs Clinton, President Obama, Vice President Joe Biden and members of the national security team are seen watching as Navy Seals storm the compound in Abbotabad, Pakistan, to take out the Al-Qaeda chief. Yesterday, in a speech to cadets at the US Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, Mrs Clinton gave a first-hand account of the incredible tension in the room as the drama unfolded.

When a cadet asked her to reflect on bin Laden’s death and the process leading up to the mission that killed him she began by recalling her time as a New York senator during 9/11, and how the attack had affected so many of her constituents.

Did she also tell the Cadet about dodging sniper’s bullets and defusing roadside bombs?

So I guess if it was a bunch of liberal ‘RAT politicians doing the raid they would have all been wearing oxygen masks and would have needed CPR upon completion of the raid.

So that explains why obama’s lips are purple. They all sit around holding their breaths all the time. I remember Hillary said she couldn’t breath when she found out about Monica.

Man, does this woman know how to exaggerate!

That would explain some of the brain damage.

They haven't invited Hillary to any Code Reds in the Situation Room since.

Subsequently, the state dept was unable to trace the origin of a case of Gas-X softgels found in Hillary's Foggy Bottom office.

Hillary was likely wearing her favorite pantsuit. It’s the twenty year old one that she never washes.

"...they couldn't breathe for 35 minutes."

If only that were true. Liberals have to lie about everything. It's in their DNA.

What a drama queen. If they are that scared then they shouldn’t be running the country.

One guy looked like he could breath fine. As a matter of fact, he looked like he was breathing fire because he was missing his tee time.

I don’t believe a word that this unprosecuted felon says about anything: Vince Foster, being at ground zero when we were attacked, being shot at on the tarmac in the Middle East, she didn’t steal over $100,000 of publicly owned property out of our White House, she was named after an itinerant sheep farmer in New Zealand five years before he climbed Mt. Everest, her daughter’s father is Bill Clinton instead of Webster Hubbel, etc.

So, this unprosecuted felon is what you might call a liar. It’s a shame that this anti-Semitic woman isn’t serving a long prison term for her very numerous crimes.

I was at the speech. Everyone was speechless as she spoke. Of course we are all military type folks so of course we are going to be respectful. I don’t know if she exaggerated, but her speech was amazing.
