LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton accused President Bush of mismanaging the Iraq war and claimed his domestic agenda has taken the country off course in a speech Friday night to Democrats in a state that solidly backed the Republican president last year.

About 2,000 people cheered the New York senator as she accused Bush of ignoring an ailing health care system and rewarding tax cuts to the wealthy while piling up deficits.

Clinton headlined a party fundraiser that brought in $600,000 for Kentucky candidates as Democrats try to reverse gains by Republicans, who hold the governor's mansion and all but one of the state's congressional seats.

Clinton, who is running for re-election next year and is considered a possible presidential candidate in 2008, targeted the president's handling of the war for some of her sharpest criticism.

"The time has come for the administration to stop serving up platitudes and present a plan for finishing this war with success and honor," she said. "I reject a rigid timetable that the terrorists can exploit, and I reject an open timetable that has no ending attached to it.

Nothing new from the beast.

Hasn't this cocaine snorting traitor dropped dead yet? I'm told he looks bad after the heart operation, so I'm hoping.

[msnimje]

What exactly did Clinton do while he was president?

[roses of sharon]

I think he designed school uniforms for girls.

[Dustbunny]

What exactly did Clinton do while he was president?

Nothing !!!

But he sure did enjoy himself.

she said. "I reject a rigid timetable that the terrorists can exploit, and I reject an open timetable that has no ending attached to it.

Ok Hellary .... Instead of trying to play both sides of the fence

What's your plan??

From Sept 11th 2001 to April 2003 GWB defeted 2 of our declared enemies with a loss rate of less than 1 hundreth of 1 percent.

Uh, wrong beast, This is Ol' Crusty, not The Bent One.

She is disgusting. Completely disgusting.

Amazing how she wants it both ways, and thinks nobody will listen closely enough to see it.

This shows the contempt that liberals have in general, and she has in particular for the electorate. They think they aren't smart enough to look at two sentences end to end.

[yldstrk]

Shaddup, a##hole.

"I reject a rigid timetable that the terrorists can exploit, and I reject an open timetable that has no ending attached to it."

LOL...In other words, "I don't reject a flexible timetable that terrorists cannot exploit, and I don't reject a closed timetable that has am ending attached to it.

Say what?..If anyone can decipher this for me, it would be appreciated.

Between Waco and Bosnia how many innocent people did Clinton get killed? Not to mention going AWOL on Osama.

[Republican Wildcat]

Since this money will be spent on candidates statewide, the GOP can now credibly picture every Dem candidate with Hillary on campaign materials. This will be worth far more than the money they raised tonight.

[WillamShakespeare]

The Hillary quest for absolute power continues. The lefty wackos have been giving her hell all week, and I guess the final straw was Tim "Doofus" Robbins the other day saying she could kiss his arse on Air America. It must drive the Beast nuts having to keep her wacko supporters while at the same time acting "middle of the road" so as to fool Republicans. Yes Hillary I am fooled, like I was fooled when Michael Jackson married Lisa Marie.

Other than to sell and/or give away almost all of our secrets to the ChiComs, make certain that his pal was the ONLY one able to sell smokeless coal, staining the rug in the Oval office and the sunk just outside of it, allow al Qaeda to flourish and ignore ALL of its terrorist plots, send our military to support the wrong side in the Balkans, destroy bridges and pollute the Danube, and make off with all kinds of stuff that belongs in the White Hose............nothing much. Oh, yes, he DID get THE biggest and most unconstitutional tax hike in the nation's history and the ONLY retroactive one.

[aligncare]

But, heed these words: In politics, as in the Grand Jury, even a ham sandwich can get elected.

Take nothing for granted.

John Kerry explained it yesterday

"I'm not asking even for the specific timetable of withdrawal. I'm asking for a specific timetable of transfer of authority, of transfer of responsibility, of the shift and the setting of the benchmarks specifically that allow us to bring our troops home."

Is that better?
