WASHINGTON — Former Yonkers Mayor John Spencer, a Republican who is looking to challenge Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton next year, accused her yesterday of "aiding and comforting the enemy" in the Iraq war.
In Washington to begin forming a campaign team, Spencer said Clinton's questioning of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld at a Senate Armed Services hearing Thursday constituted a "thinly veiled attack" on President Bush and was another example of how Democratic rhetoric on the war is dividing the country.
Clinton, a Democrat, asked Rumsfeld to repudiate White House Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove's remarks this week that liberals are not tough enough on America's enemies. She said the remarks, made at a Conservative Party dinner in New York City, were "insulting" and "disturbing" to people like herself who had "legitimate questions" about the administration's conduct of the war while supporting it.
Clinton voted to authorize the war but has been a frequent critic of Bush's postwar strategy.
Spencer criticized Clinton for having not spoken up about the "vitriolic rhetoric" coming from other Democrats attacking Bush and Republicans over the last year and a half.
"She says we all love our troops. But then to be silent when politicians like (Sen.) Dick Durbin, Howard Dean and Ted Kennedy and John Kerry attack the president, that's really aiding and comforting the enemy," Spencer said.
Howard Wolfson, a Clinton spokesman, said Spencer was relying on negative attacks to help launch his campaign.
"It is clear from today's press conference that the Republicans are beginning yet another campaign in which issues and positive ideas take a back seat to false, negative attacks," he said. "Instead of politicizing 9/11 and the war on terror, Mr. Spencer ought to stand with Senator Clinton in uniting against the terrorists and supporting our troops."
Spencer, who was Yonkers mayor from 1995 to 2002, is one of several Republicans said to be looking at seeking the Republican and Conservative Party nominations for the 2006 U.S. Senate race. He plans to make a statewide tour this month to speak with GOP and Conservative Party leaders.
He had planned to hold yesterday's news conference outside Clinton's office in the Senate Russell Building. But the event, which was attended by two reporters, was moved outside the building after Senate press officials told Spencer he couldn't hold it inside.
Spencer said he was particularly incensed that Clinton brought up the Vietnam War and its divisiveness while questioning Rumsfeld. Clinton said that she was old enough to remember how deeply divided the country was "and never want to see that again." But Spencer took issue, saying that as a Vietnam veteran he was "appalled that she would raise the fact that our nation was divided during Vietnam, and then proceed to divide us further today."
So Hillary is now conservative?

I liked the way he kept working that in there!!!
I think he should defintely make sure the NY public remembers that Hillary didn't attend any Firefighter/Police funerals post 9/11, even though Chuck Schumer at least found time.
Get Spencer out with the FDNY - get footage of Hiliary being BOOED off the stage at the FDNY memorial. Most satisfying moment of television for me EVAH!
And maybe Billy Dale can be brought on stage to remind people what that B***H does to people she considers inconvenient to her needs.
Please don't discourage Hillary from running in 2008 by speaking too vehemently about her chances. Not only will it be sure-thing election for a conservative opponent, but it will be personally gratifying to watch a socialist being "borked".
The thought of Shrillery as Commander-in-Chief should give everyone nightmares.
The last ten months of my long army career coincided with the first ten months of military-loathing Slick Willie's eight long years in office. During those ten months I saw morale among the troops drop like a rock. The Witch in the Black Pants Suit should not be anywhere near the White House ever again! If you liked Jimmah Cahtuh you'll love President Shrillery!
