A question about the Chinese contracts and the position of Mr. Obama on them made the U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton visibly angry in Congo during a press conference.
In Kinshasa, the capital of Congo, Hillary was speaking to students and one of the questions made her visibly angry. It looks like it was a misunderstanding and information lost in translation. Clinton thought someone asked about her husband's opinion on an international matter, and that naturally left her visibly angry. However, at the end of the press conference Hillary Clinton and the questioner shook hands and made light of it. It turned out that the question was about Obama's position on an international matter and it was the translator who had misspoken.
Hillary Clinton's being visibly angry showed that she is a human being too. She is on a long trip. It's a seven nation eleven day African trip, and she is just half way of it. So, I think it's OK. Consider the jet lag after so much flying.
Therefore, her being a little angry due to a misunderstanding and then shaking hands with the person who asked the question may be OK.
