Clinton Tells Ky. Dems Bush Mismanaged War [Barfer]

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.

But, somehow, she managed to get elected senator to a state she did not hail from, and won even in republican upstate New York.

She is one scary dude.

I understand. Many have those old-time demos in their families. They are not politically aware but know that they have voted democrat since dirt was young and that's what they do. There is a new generation of young Republicans coming up who will be more active than even we are.

Hasn't this cocaine snorting traitor dropped dead yet?

Wrong Clinton, as far as we know.

The cocaine part is the one in question.......the traitor part has already been established long ago, regardless of which 'toon one refers to.

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


He looks like death warmed over.
He has that weird look in his eyes as if he has AID's.

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.

It is consistent, though, with Clintonism.

I first formed my opinion of Bill at the Richmond debate in '92 -- when he promised three different members of the audience three different, but mutually exclusive, things. A balanced budget, more spending programs and a middle-class tax cut.

The audience lapped it up, the media praised him...while Perot and GHWB completely ignored the disconnect.

Bill got away with it. But I don't know whether she can...

So it's agreed then. Should she become president, we all commit suicide, all 160 million of us normal americans.

That'll teach them.

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

What's your plan??"


Like all the other commies, she doesn't have a plan, but GWB's plan has been in operation since the war began and is even ahead of schedule.

Your brain just took a sharp left turn. Should I call an exorcist?
