Object thrown at Hillary Clinton during speech
LAS VEGAS (AP) — A woman was taken into custody after throwing what she described as a shoe at Hillary Clinton during a Las Vegas speech. The incident happened moments after Clinton took the stage Thursday at an Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries meeting at the Mandalay Bay hotel-casino. Clinton ducked but did not appear to be hit by the object, and then joked about it. "Is that somebody throwing something at me? Is that part of Cirque de Soleil?" Clinton quipped. She added: "My goodness, I didn't know that solid waste management was so controversial. Thank goodness she didn't play softball like I did." Ilene Rosen, a witness and the wife of a conventioneer, was seated in the second row when she saw "something orange thrown from the side aisle with papers that fluttered in the air." Rosen said the woman walked down the aisle and got about six rows from the front of the seating area when she threw the object. The woman then turned around, put her hands in the air and walked toward the back of the room before ushers caught up with her, Rosen said. Security officers ushered out the woman, who said she threw a shoe but didn't identify herself to reporters or explain the action. Mark Carpenter, spokesman for the recycling institute, said she wasn't part of the convention. Authorities said she would be arrested. Rosen said the object that went past Clinton lodged in a decoration at the back of the stage for a moment, but a security officer quickly grabbed it and took it off stage. After her speech, Clinton answered questions posed by Jerry Simms, the outgoing chairman of the organization. Simms first offered what he called a "deepest apology for that crude interruption." Clinton answered questions broadly, saying she felt politics today leads people to "do what they think will be rewarded." An attendee later handed a reporter a piece of paper that was apparently thrown by the woman. It appeared to be a copy of a Department of Defense document labeled confidential and dated August 1967; it referred to an operation "Cynthia" in Bolivia. The former U.S. secretary of state and Democratic senator from New York has been traveling the country giving paid speeches to industry organizations and appearing before key Democratic Party constituents. |

Too bad it wasn't the book. After all she is eligible for murder, treason, and perjury.
Nice being a politician and above the law isn't it. |

Years ago,I'd have let Hitlary give me an oral intimate encounter.
Now, she's a little too crusty and dusty. |

Name of thrower not released, probably staged to gain Hillary support with great comeback lines, probably all set up in advance.
This goes to follow up the stupid 6 year old that tweeted Hillary asking if she should call her Mrs. President or Madam President. 0 and 2 Bush and Clinton neither one can catch worth a darn. Even though Hillary said "Thank goodness she didn't play softball like she did" If it was not staged I hope the Woman has her life insurance paid up, people who insult the Clinton's often end up dead. Also the man who threw a shoe at bush had his Arm broken during his imprisonment. If the woman Shoe thrower was not paid to do this as a stunt, she better get her name and story out there fast or she will probably vanish into the abyss. |
