Secretary of State Hillary Clinton blasted a reporter in the African nation of Congo for asking a question about her husband- former President Bill Clinton.
As it turns out, the question was lost in translation.
The translator asked Secretary Clinton what her husband thought about trade with China.
Later, the question was clarified.
The reporter wanted to know President Barack Obama's opinion on the matter.
CLINTON: "You want me to tell you what my husband thinks? My husband is not the Secretary of State. I am. You asked me my opinion. I'n not going to be channeling my husband."
Later, once the confusion was clarified, Clinton and the reporter shook hands.
