Did Barack Obama comment on the Clinton sniper story?
If so, how?

I've been disturbed by Hillary Clinton pouncing on this "bitter" comment but I was wondering if she felt she was justified in taking Obama to task if he came after her on the sniper-fire landing incident.

I know the situations are not comparable but I am nevertheless curious. I'm trying where to set my outrage meter.

Thanks in advance for information.

1. I personally did not hear a peep out of him about it but who knows with
so many people talking.

2. I Believe That He Was Asked, And Said
that it was up to The Clintons to discuss it, or something similar.

3. No. He declines to attack her on her gaffes. He only hits back in self defense.
The clear lies get a free pass from him unless they are about him or his policy statements, then he calls her on it.

4. No he didn't, because he is a much better person than Hillary

6. He really has said not a word about her bald faced lie.
If he wanted to he could run her airport landing and her "memories of
being shot @" 24/7 in PA in attack ads ... PA has lots of vets.

7. He was asked, and he refused to take the bait.
He said they should refer those questions to the Clinton campaign.

Just further proof of the kind of honor Obama has. He doesn't take cheap shots, even when Clinton is taking cheap shots at him.
