As former military who's been visited by high level political figures, here's how I would have taken her comments:

"We have to exert all of our efforts militarily, but the outcome is not assured."
--Suggesting that they'll lose in Iraq and die.

"Americans are wholeheartedly proud of what you are doing but there are many questions at home about the (Bush) administration's policies."
--Suggesting that the American people's support is fading.

The Pentagon tried to make do with as few troops as possible, as light a footprint as they could get away with," Clinton said. "Now, we're playing catchup . . . Unfortunately, I don't think they fully appreciated the conditions we would encounter."
--Suggesting their bosses are failures who don't care about their lives.

I am so glad this creature isn't co-President anymore.

My reaction to her comments - that I posted on this thread

...

She said she told the troops "Americans are proud" of them, "but many question the administration's policies."

Jesus, Mary and Joseph!!! A one-woman(?) morale-wrecking crew! She's not on a fact-finding mission; she's on a mission to undermine our soldiers' confidence that they are doing the right thing and that the majority of Americans' support their mission. What a miserable, vengeful, angry, evil, piss-poor excuse for a human being.

I''m sorry. Please excuse my use of profanity... after seeing some of the best and brightest of our soldiers laid up at Walter Reed with severe and life-altering injuries, to hear that this self-important, self-serving slut is over in Iraq and Afghanistan saying things that will make these men and women question the value and morality of their work angers me beyond words.

Had she even a sliver of a conscience and a soul, she would have kept her miserable mouth shut and stayed home. What a common woman she is. Jane Fonda, move over.
