WASHINGTON -- Democratic Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton called Tuesday for tougher punishment against Syria, saying the country was aggressively supporting terrorism in the "dangerous neighborhood" of the Middle East.

In lambasting Syria, Clinton joined a growing chorus of officials in Washington urging the United States to take a harsher stance against that country following a Feb. 14 bombing in Beirut that killed the former premier of Lebanon.

Senator Clinton:

"Assad, you better shape up or you could wind up burned alive in a large wood framed church in rural Texas, or be found by a cannon in Fort Marcy Park."

"And you know I mean it."

Assad:

"Guess I'd better roll over one more time."

Sounds like she is calling GWB out.

"Hey George, remember the whole with us or against us BS? They look like terrorists to me so go attack."

Can't believe she is saying this after all the crap that was spewed during the last Presidential Race over doing things UNILATERALLY.

What a POS.

Huh? This coming from the wicked witch of the north? She blasted the prez for going into Iraq. See excerpt below:

Hillary Blasts Bush in Arab Press
News Max ^ | 4/27/2004 | Carl Limbacher

Tuesday, April 27, 2004 10:53 a.m. EDT Hillary Blasts Bush in Arab Press

In remarks being reported throughout the Arab world Tuesday morning, New York Sen. Hillary Clinton blasted the Bush administration as a threat to peace in the Middle East, going so far as to accuse President Bush of endangering the lives of U.S. troops.

Oh, I get it! Upon further thought when she makes the WH '08 run, she'll claim amnesia like she has done on everything else.

Playing to the audience, becoming centrist.

Playing to the audience.........yes.

Becoming centrist...............no.

Talk is one thing, action is another. Hi-LIAR-y will always be a flaming Marxist. Her goal is to fool enough people so she can win the White House. Then once in, she will revert to her statist Marxist ways.

I'm so sick of hearing about her. Every other thread on FR today is about Hillary!. I know "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer..." Just sick of hearing about her lying and her extreme makeover.

We shouldn't do anything to Syria, right now, other than preparing to stomp them flat if they try to overthrow the next government.

We should be prepared to sit on the sidelines, and let the Lebanese elect a new government, enter into talks with Syria regarding the removal of Syrian troops and the ejection of the terrorists from the Beqaa Valley. They'll drag on for years, but we should let it happen. Democracy and freedom will most likely result.

Unless the Syrians decide on a military takeover. In which case we should have been prepared to flatten every Syrian military position in Lebanon, whatever Syrian military positions in Syria we feel necessary for the protection of our operations in Lebanon.

And, of course, we should pay the terrorist camps in the Beqaa a little visit...

Start hating her? They already do! She even has DU fooled. Howard Dean and Wes Clark are their guys.

But they obviously aren't savvy enough to realise that Hillary's "move to the right" is all for show.

But in 2008, all will be forgiven and they will turn out in droves to vote for their queen.
