Um, yeah... she voted for the 'Authorization'.


"The President is authorized to use the Armed Forces of the United States as he determines to be necessary and appropriate in order to defend the national security of the United States against the continuing threat posed by Iraq."

"But there was a catch.

"Before resorting to force, Bush [Younger] had to satisfy Congress that "reliance on peaceful means alone will not adequately protect the national security of the United States."

"That meant Bush the Younger had to give Blix and ElBaradei an opportunity to thoroughly check out Iraq to see if a resort to force was necessary to disarm Saddam Hussein.

"By mid-March, the whole world had concluded – as a result of the reports to the Security Council by Blix and ElBaradei – that Saddam had effectively been disarmed since at least 1998 and had made no attempt to reconstitute his weapons of mass destruction programs since 1991.

"Saddam was not a threat to us, after all.

"Hence, it was something of a surprise to us – and should have been absolutely stupefying to congresspersons – when Dubya "determined" on March 19 that no "further diplomatic or other peaceful means will adequately protect the national security of the United States from the continuing threat posed by Iraq."

"As we now know – thanks to the Select Committee – the highly classified October NIE was a crock of wheat smut." — Gordon Prather, The Vote for Gulf War II, Antiwar.com, July 17, 2004


So, uh, if you 'authorize' your adult neighbor to drive your car, based on his assurances that he will drive responsibly, and he instead ties one on and takes out a family in a minivan...

That means you 'authorized' vehicular homicide?

Why do so many Americans have such a stressful, unsuccessful relationship with facts and fundamental logic?

So is there a point to this? What a bunch of noise! It's hard enough to read a blog and pick out the facts and informed opinion without having to wade through a pile of sophomoric "humor".

Did Hillary really say there's another side to a pancake? She must have been talking about something else. This "mashup" crap just comes across the same as the right-wing noise machine.

She knows it's a two sided pancakes because she has two faces to look at both sides at the same time.

Hillary Clinton is a two sided pancake. She has been both before and against the Iraq War since it started.

Hillary and the DLC backed Lieberman,
Until she felt the heat and weedled out of all out support.
She voted for the War and continued funding of it.
She voted for the Patriot Act. TWICE
She voted a NV for the Credit Card and Banking Bill which Equaled a Yes in a Republican Congress.
She voted for the REAL ID ACT.
She would renew NAFTA.
She is a Corporatist.
She is not a Democrat.
She is part of the problem.

NO MORE CLINTONS

Where is the logic in using Hillary's laugh to debase her? I suppose it runs along the same lines as voting for the guy you'd most like to have a beer with.
Keep piling on her, guys. The more you do, the more votes she'll get. Hillary has been hammered for so long, that most people (especially women) are tired of it. That's what backlash is all about.

Most Women? Hillary gets the majority of women support form lower income, high school or less education.

Most women with a college education can see she is nothing more than a phony politician that would do or say anything to gain power.

It is not the laugh, it is the disingenuous of the laugh that I have a problem with.

By the way, what was she hammered for?
Her vote to authorize the War, her going after women who claimed to have an affair with her husband, firing all Whitehouse travel staff when they were in the Whitehouse, taking money from lobbyists, we can keep going on,and on...Stop drinking the Kool-Aide.

Wake up Dems.

Showing the Hillary laughtrack repeatedly is very poor form. How many of us are attractive when we laugh...? Not very many.
As to judging Hillary; we may never really get to know her but possibly one way is to judge her by the very public people who support her. They do get the inside scoop from her. If you actually think she'd be worse than the cookie cutter Republican versions of the moron Bush than you deserve what you get if you don't vote for her.

I know a lot of people whose laugh are fine.

It sounds ugly because it is a fake laugh. She does that to deflect the importance of the question. Listen to his question again and ask yourself it called for her to respond in that manner.

She did the same thing with Bill maher's question about being fooled by Bush.
She was not fooled though, she was in step with bush in wanting to get Sadam. Listen to her speech found in the Guliani video on youtube.

Cookie Cutter: She was inline with Bush in wanting to get Saddam. She even said Saddam was harboring Al Qaeda terrorist.

She takes money from lobbyist, Just recently had to return 850.000 dollars raised by Hsu, or whatever his name is.

A vote for Clinton is to continue the corruption that is ruining our country.

What difference does it make what she thinks? She's sold out to corporate interests and will do what she's told.

Typical Huffington Post. Your bias couldn't be more clear. Just rename it The Obama Post.

America has been abused by a "bad father figure"
for the past 6 3/4 years (and by an "unfaithful father figure" for 8 years prior to that)

Like a mortally wounded soldier,accident victim or child in pain, America is collectively crying out, "Mommy save me!"

Grow up America
