Obama Ally Knocks Hillary Clinton Over Iraq War Vote

A close confidant and former senior adviser to President Barack Obama took a not-so-veiled shot at Hillary Clinton on Tuesday for voting to authorize the Iraq War, in apparent push-back to the former Secretary of State’s criticism of Obama’s foreign policy.

“Great nations need organizing principles, and ‘Don’t do stupid stuff’ is not an organizing principle,” Clinton told the Atlantic in an interview published this week, as she attempts to distance herself from the President ahead of a possible 2016 White House run. White House aides use a more profane version of the phrase “Don’t do stupid stuff” to characterize Obama’s foreign policy vision.

“Just to clarify: ‘Don’t do stupid stuff” means stuff like occupying Iraq in the first place, which was a tragically bad decision,” David Axelrod wrote on Twitter, in clear reference to Clinton’s vote in favor of the Iraq War in 2002—a vote Obama said he opposed. [...]

Isn’t it funny how quickly they turn on one another when voting season comes around...all buddy until the ballot boxes open....

Good, as the third man in the ring would day,”let’s get it on”!

Obama is so like King Geoffry on Game of Thrones. How DARE you question the KING!!

So, in order for Hillary to run, she has to run against Obama and the Democrats record. What will Debbie Wackedinthehead-Schultz say now?

Funny how the furor over Edward Klein’s book Blood Feud went away pretty quickly . . . guess he was a lot closer to the truth than the left’s apologists intimated.

The next five years will be a lot of fun for us to watch as the progressive debate will be centered along the lines of “Who lost America to the Conservatives? The Obama-ties or the Clintonistas.”

Let the Games begin!!

Everybody's fault but mine. I'm just a hapless drifting victim in all of this. I don't know how I got here only that I'm the man who will fix it all if it weren't for the sequester, global warming, Bush, the Jews, Hillary, voters, Republicans, Sarah Palin, Al Maliki, Baradai, Putin, Mickey Mouse.......Ice cream...

“Clintons lash out at authors of recent Clinton books: ‘Hat Trick of despicable actors concocting trashy nonsense for a quick buck’

I guess the only trash in Klein’s book was the Clintons

I see the Chicago Mob looking to Liz Warren as Baraq’s 3rd term.

The Clintons will make a play for Republicans to support Hillary in the Dem primary.
I can envision the slogan:

“you know a Democrat is going to win, so to avoid Warren, vote for Hillary”
