Hillary Clinton clearly has a future as an acrobat. While delivering a speech at the Institute of Scrap
Recycling Industries Conference in Las Vegas
yesterday, the former First Lady managed to dodge a
shoe thrown in her direction by an angry audience
member.
And not only did the 66-year old remain upright,
her quick wit was kept fully intact.
Hillary Clinton Avoids Thrown Shoe "What was that a bat? Is that a bat?" Clinton replied
on stage. "Is that somebody throwing something at
me? Is that part of Cirque du Soleil?" 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."
The assailant was quickly apprehended by the
Secret Service and is in custody at the moment. In December 2008, George W. Bush also had a shoe thrown at him by a journalist in Iraq. He was a little
slower on his feet than Mrs. Clinton.
