New York Sun:
Senator Clinton squared off yesterday with her possible challenger for the White House in 2012, General David Petraeus, and came closer than any of her colleagues to calling the commander of the multinational forces in Iraq a liar.
Using blunter language than any other Democrat in the last two days, Mrs. Clinton told General Petraeus that his progress report on Iraq required "a willing suspension of disbelief."

1. Hillary sounds sooooo much better when she's not yelling. I had forgotten she can sound like a normal human being, instead of a harsh grating monotone robot.
2. was Hillary an English major? that phrase "suspension of disbelief" comes from literary theory.
3. Hillary wants to bomb Iran. Obama warns Bush that he is not authorized to bomb Iran. see the difference between the two?
OBSERVATION:
BAD NEWS ABOUT THE HILLARY TARBABY = FEW BLOG POSTS on Huffpost. Hhmmm...
people listen. The operative word in her quote is "willing" in "willing disbelief." A willing disbelief is something you take with you into the theatre, not to a war hearing in the Capitol Building. I like Bill. I like what i hear from Obama too. Hillary appears to me disingenuous and although more a chameleon than machiavellan in her manuverings and not someone this dem could vote for w/o holding my nose, i'm afraid. Still, there is Bill! Sigh.
When did Hillary become a military expert?

pretty funny, especially about the six soldiers from Cameroon
It's official, ... every time we see, hear, or read about Hillary Clinton, one thought comes to mind; $850,000.00, ... right?
LOL
That's EIGHT HUNDRED -AND- FIFTY T-H-O-U-S-A-N-D DOLLARS.
America Deserves Better!
HILLARY: "And I didn't know nothin' about him!"
LOL
Some Democrat has to take on the General. If it be HillBillary[Hillary&Bill] let it be although she's really a Republican. Campaigned for Nixon in 1960, Goldwater Girl in 64, voted for Nixon 68 and president of the Wellesley Young Republicans. The HillBillary's vowed to change the Democratic Partyand have done so thru the DLC branch which is the Republican Party branch the Democratic Party. Someone in the Democratic Party has to show some leadership and unfortunately that someone is a Republican, HillBillary.
I resent your ignorant indirect slurs at 'hillbillies'! Beware!
HILLARY'S GAUL REQUIRES SUSPENSION OF BELIEF WHILE WAITING FOR THE OTHER HSU TO DROP.
Do you want a president Hillary? Can we believe her on anything?
She is constantly claiming (conveniently) that she "did not know anything" about Hsu (stood in lines and attended campaign events) and in the past "was not aware" of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, was for the war then against the war, for the troops but then giving their killers aid and comfort in the press, "did not know" about corrupt chinese governemtn lobbiest named Trie, Lincoln bedroom rents to foreign donars, Kathleen Wiley and Paula Jones of Bill's affairs including women Bill raped, large donations from monks who don't have jobs, Monica Lewinski fornicating with her husband-President Bill, Rose Law firm records, reappearing billing records, curious sales of 25 years of satellite technology to China in exchange for campaign funds and White House visits?
If she, as claimed by liberals, is the "smartest person in the world", should she not know about these things if she is the leader of the most powerful nation in the world?
NoBlindEyeToClintonMachine
Then don't vote for her.
Next.
NEVER WILL.
It may embarrass you to learn that EVERY ONE of these charges against Hillary has been proven to be false. They are 'charges' of the Ken Starr variety, simply pulled out of some Republicant's a** and repeated over a period of fifteen years or longer by Fox Noise Pricks LIKE YOU!
Now don't you get angry! Why don't you go brag about how Susan McDougal was railroaded by more of Ken Starr's Republicant LYING!
FALSE? IN YOUR DREAMS, TRASHMOUTH. LOL
We all watch TV, we hear them speak, we see what they do, and the truth hurts, doesnt' it? Cursing will NOT make THE CLINTON SLEEZE TARBABY you are stuck with go away.
After your darling Tarbaby was impeached, did you pull the sheet over your head and curl up hoping the Clinton (s) fiascos (that's plural) would go away and not embarrass you anymore?
YOU AIN'T SEEN NOTHING YET. The Clintons have you brainwashed and your b**** in a lock box! LOL
NotStuckToTheClintonTarbaby
This is just George W. Bush passing the buck once again. Powell, Tenet, Brown, Myers, Abu Ghraib, and many more I can't think of at the moment. This guy is the king of passing the buck and Petraeus is just the current tool used to play out the clock of the administration with the lives of our soldiers.
Poor ReTHUGs... sooo scared of Hillary; sooo scared of Obama; sooo scared of Edwards; soo scared of the truth coming out - like it did about Sen. Craig (R) and Sen. Vitter (R) and Rep. Foley (R) and FL State Rep Allen (R) and.........
The article states that Petraeus is considered a possible challenger in the 2012 election. I'm sure he's a good military man, but President? He's certainly no Eisenhower.
If anyone knows about what requires a willing suspense of disbelief, its Hillary.
Ariana please post a nice picture of Hillary .What are you going to do if she gets elected?No invites to the balls for you dahling.
arrianna is too busy with her "mission accomplished" propaganda she learned from her idol, karl rove, why worry about appearing "fair and balanced" where hillary is concerned?
and from the looks of her comments, she's attracting nut cases to her web page in droves.
The fact is - there is no such thing as a nice picture of the disgusting bitch.
"a willing suspension of disbelief."
It actually applies to her 'annointed' Presidential candidacy, too. How fitting.
When Hillary takes a position she is responding to the polls. This means that Petraeus has failed to make his case to the American people. Barabara Boxer articulated the real sentiment of the people at the hearing.
They need to replace Harry Ried with Barbara Boxer as leader of the Senate. Barbara has has more and bigger balls then Harry.
I am sure you know that first hand little ball licker.
Boxer is a BUFFOON. She ranted her whole allotted time and Sen Biden expressed impatience with her during his time. And he's a man that knows bloviating.
Barbara Boxer is one of the most capable and most honorable people in the Senate.
She works FOR the people of this country.
Wow! What if we had had her as POTUS the last six and a half years! We wouldn't be in Iraq! We wouldn't be saddled with this rupturing load of DEBT that Bu**sh** has saddled us with for generations! We would NOT be the laughing stock of the world!
