Recently Obama made comments, that his uncle helped to liberate Auschwitz when in fact it was Buchenwald.
Naturally, there are "pundits" that will swarm and liken this to Clinton's sniper fire comments however, this is hardly the same as Mrs. Clinton's dramatic portrayal of her sniper fire experience.
The excuse of "misspeaking" which was used by Clinton seems applicable not to her own "misspeaking"(lie) but to Obama's.
Mr. Clinton, of course would claim the media is biased and it's all a conspiracy against his wife and her chances but, this is hardly the same, in my opinion. Furthermore, there was a quick response and correction from the Obama campaign.
One was entirely made up and the other was a mistaken name of a camp. I guess people can make thier own minds up if they are the same or some indication of Obama's lack of knowledge; or in the words of fox news, "you decide." I am betting this don't go anywhere except maybe by republican bloggers.
