“I happened to be literally — probably, it turned out, to be a quarter of a mile [away] at an outing when I heard gunshots in the woods,” Mr. Biden recounted. “We didn’t know … we thought they were hunters.”

But a search of maps of the area in Lancaster County, Pa., shows the nearest golf course to the site of the shooting, Moccasin Run Golf Club, is about five miles away. Rodney King, the golf pro at Moccasin Run, said Friday he was working at the course on the day of the shooting and never saw Mr. Biden, who was then a U.S. senator.

“There’s a lot of things here that I find hard to believe,” Mr. King said. “I looked in my database, and he [Mr. Biden] is not in my database.”

Even if Mr. Biden had played at the course that day, Mr. King said, “It’s very far-fetched that he would have heard it.”

“I know he didn’t hear those gunshots,” Mr. King said. “They were inside the school. Even if they were outside, he wouldn’t have heard them.”

Biteme and Shillary should go on a Commander McBragg world tour(dodging drunk drivers and sniper fire the whole way, of course)

Biden has a witness. Mante Teo’s girlfriend.

[Truth29]

There is another story out there somewhere that Biden claimed he ate in a diner that had closed years before the date he claimed to have been there.

[Darksheare]

LOL, Joe Biden doing a Hillary “I remember clearly being under sniper fire” moment.

[FreedomForce]

Mr. King said. “I looked in my database, and he [Mr. Biden] is not in my database.”

How about Neil Kinnock?

[muawiyah]

Are you telling us that Biden was actually nearly on the site of the killing ~ waiting for the report when Lanza shot out the windows in the entry area?

That's beyond koinkydink ~ that's hardcore conspiracy theory grist!

[Bryanw92]

So, Biden was “near” a mass shooting. Hillary dodged sniper fire. And Obama is a heterosexual male.

Can’t anyone in that administration tell the truth ONCE??

[Cicero]

Perhaps Joe Biden has very sensitive ears.

[tangchung]

Yeah, I called the owner of the golf course this morning.

I posted the conversation here on another thread. Then sent the link to the Dave Boyer at Washington times. Guess he followed up and called the golf course too.

[ColdOne]

remember al gore and the union label comment?

[Gaffer]

...... literally — probably, it turned out, to be a ....

Keywords to the start of a bullshit lie.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Biden is taking after Hillary when it comes to making up crap..maybe Biden was dodging sniper fire too

I’m guessing this refers to the Nickel Mines (Amish) School Massacre, in 2006:
