Hillary Clinton: Iraq War Vote a Mistake
For the first time since she voted to authorize the Iraq war three years ago, 2008 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is now saying that vote was a mistake - in an apparent move to pacify growing dissatisfaction with her position among the Democratic Party's left-wing base.
"If Congress had been asked [to authorize the war], based on what we know now, we never would have agreed," Clinton said, in an email sent to her supporters on Tuesday.
While saying she took full responsibility for her error, Clinton repeatedly insisted that she had been misled by "false" intelligence on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction presented by the Bush administration.
Citing "assurances they gave that they would first seek to resolve the issue of weapons of mass destruction peacefully through United Nations sponsored inspections," Clinton lamented: "Their assurances turned out to be empty ones."

....."we know now, we never would have agreed," Clinton said, ....'
That's just perfectly beautiful!!! All the time it's, well you know; I;I;I;I;I;I;I.
But suddenly, let's go with "we"!
Mamby, Pamby, Pussie!
John F'ing Kerry already said that. I thought he or Algore had the copywright on on spin. She can't even grovel to Moveon without stealing lines. LAMO
there is a family resemblance
billy looks like theresa
hilly looks like johnny
they must have "all" had the same mom and dad
This entire strategy could burn the Democrats so badly. If elections go well, we start drawing down troops and Iraq continues to move forward...what a collosally stupid idea the Democrats are doing right now with this revisionist history and revisionist voting.
But, she must be getting worried the MoonBats will go someplace else so she's playing to her natural base instead of trying to pretend she's a "moderate".
Citing "assurances they gave that they would first seek to resolve the issue of weapons of mass destruction peacefully through United Nations sponsored inspections," Clinton lamented: "Their assurances turned out to be empty ones."
Smartest witch er, um womyn in America. right.
''I was duped by the dumbest man in the world.''
The polls said Abe Lincoln would not win a second term. And if you read papers from the period. There was doubt in the press that the Union would prevail. Well it did. And Hillary is just a frumpy old broad who hopefully is defeated and slides into obscurity!
If I had known last January that Tony Stuart was going to win the Championship of Nascar I could have made a million bucks.
None of us know what will happen and we have all said "If we had known" Sometime in our lives.Probably if Bush had known the truth he would not have gone either, but then what is the truth? We still dont know what is hidden in Syria.
Now the part about being mislead by Bush is a Got damned lie told by a lying POS.
One of the reasons we are in Iraq is because of the information she and other democrats were spouting when Bill was in office. Liars like her and other Democrats make them unfit to be in the Senate, unfit to be called Americans.
the skinning of the hilldebeast has finally begun
Hey Hillary --
How do you ask a soldier to be the last one to die for a mistake?
I agree with your comments. This statement could turn around and bite here in that ash. (Follow up comments, too easy).
She's lying.
I Can't Say No
It ain't so much a question of not knowing what to do.
I knowed whut's right and wrong since I been ten.
I heared a lot of stories and I reckon they are true
About how girls're put upon by men.
I know I mustn't fall into the pit,
But when I'm with a feller, I fergit!
I'm jist a girl who cain't say no,
I'm in a turrible fix
I always say "come on, le's go"
Jist when I orta say nix!
Probably had the same dad, just different moms.
Karl Rove hypnotized Clinton to make him say those things.
"If Congress had been asked [to authorize the war], based on what we know now, we never would have agreed,"
This is such a cop out. She can claim to one group that she is against the war and wishes that she never voted for it or can also claim that she voted for it with the info she had but now we are there, we have to finish the job.
"If Congress had been asked [to authorize the war], based on what we know now, we never would have agreed," Clinton said, in an email sent to her supporters on Tuesday.Apparently the Mighty Hildabeaste has finally found something where she can be an undisputed, absolute, expert.
That would be hindsight.
