The question was one she had heard before, but this time it was asked in downright hostile terms.

“Has your mother shown any remorse for the fact that her vote cost Iraqis a million of their lives?” a student asked Chelsea Clinton on Monday at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Ms. Clinton replied: “She cast a vote based on the best available evidence. Perhaps you had clairvoyance then, and that’s extraordinary.”

This is the first time I've posted an article, so please go easy on me if I didn't do it right or if it has already been posted.

I thought this was interesting and they're having a fit about it on DU.

Is she being “pimped” again?

[LdSentinal]

Pimpin’ ain’t easy.

I am starting to be a wee bit impressed with this girl. Maybe she should run for something.

[doc1019]

Especially if you suffer from the uglies.

[LdSentinal]

If she runs for something, Chuck Schumer might be a victim of Arkancide.

Wow, that is a scary thought. Make it go awaaaay!

Ms. Clinton replied: “She cast a vote based on the best available evidence. Perhaps you had clairvoyance then, and that’s extraordinary."

Well, what a lovely insult: Just look what Little Bitch learned from Mama Bitch.

I don’t know if you read the whole thing or not, but the students have been holding up signs that say “Got Pimp” during her visits!

Alas the truthful reply eluded her..

“That milions of Iraqi lives thing is just made up numbers we use to bash Bush..”

[Old Lady]

“You can applaud for that,” she tells audiences when she hears a few claps...

Creepy! Like Mommy!

[Redbob]

A better answer would have been to question that wholly-fabricated “million Iraqis” figure.

[Redbob]

Hey, she has at least as much foreign policy experience as the junior senator fromm Illinois!

This is the first time I've posted an article

“Perhaps you had clairvoyance then, and that’s extraordinary”

Go, Chelsea!

[CTSeditor]

“Ms. Clinton, on leave from her job at a New York hedge fund”

Political leave? Must be new. Can I do that?

[doc1019]

Always read the entire article before commenting. That said …

There is still discernment out there. ;-)
