Today Sen. Clinton issued a statement on the death of Abu Musab al Zarkawi. Here it is in its entirety:
"As a leader of Al Qaeda in Iraq, Abu Musab al Zarkawi was responsible for despicable attacks that claimed the lives of too many Iraqis and Americans. I saw firsthand the terrible consequences of Zarqawi's terrorist network when Bill, Chelsea and I visited the hotel ballroom in Amman, Jordan last November where Zarqawi's followers had detonated a bomb at a wedding, killing and wounding innocent people. We owe our thanks to our men and women in uniform and others in Iraq who have been fighting the Zarqawi and other insurgents and who are responsible for today's success.
I hope that this will be a blow to the insurgency in Iraq and affords an opportunity for the new Iraqi government to build on this success and provide greater security and stability for the Iraqi people."
While it figures that Hillary would insert herself into this story, it is true that she and her family were there and seemed visibly moved. It was also a bit surprising that she didn't react as many liberals have, which is by briefly saying Zarkawi's death is a good thing and then quickly moving on to criticize the administration. Way to show some restraint, Hill.
When he heard that Iraqi rebel leader Al-Zarqawi had gone to meet 72 virgins, it’s rumored that Bill asked, “Why wasn’t I invited to that meeting?”
Hillary Clinton: I Witnessed Zarqawi Terror (Me Me Me - It's all About Meeeeeee!)
Abu Musab al Zarkawi was responsible for despicable attacks that claimed the lives of too many Iraqis and Americans.
So Hil thinks he killed too many Iraqis and Americans? That implies an acceptable level of deaths she wouldn't object to.
Guess she won't be getting his check anytime soon..
Hillary, just how many is too many?
i hope poopy-licker's head just exploded
Why don't you send her some flowers
Too many? Well then.... what exactly is the acceptable number to kill?
:)
At about 190...
Well she's doubling down on her (for a lefty) hawkish stance. I guess there's no turning back for her. She won't win the nomination.
"It was also a bit surprising that she didn't react as many liberals have,"
ohhhh give her time.
Typical. NO matter what she is talking about, what she's asked about, the subject ALWAYS turns to her AND her despicable family. Sickening.
Huck Fill.
This "Senator" couldn't care less; the only thing that she cares about is power.
Snicker, snicker.
What should be a more appropriate number of lives? Seems once again she didn't think first.
Hill has seen the way the wind is blowing. She's setting her sights for '08. Next she'll claim to be for securing the borders.
Hillary Clinton is an obese sow.
