Paul Wolfowitz, a top official in the George W. Bush administration referred to as the architect of the Iraq war, said he will likely vote for Hillary Clinton in November.
Wolfowitz is part of a growing list of GOP national security and foreign policy officials who have announced their intention to support the Democratic presidential nominee. But though Clinton has proudly announced the backing of other Republicans, its less likely she will roll out a news release touting the support from Wolfowitz.
As deputy secretary of Defense under Bush, Wolfowitz was among the earliest and biggest cheerleaders for invading Iraq and deposing Saddam Hussein. Clinton, as a senator representing New York, voted in 2002 to go to war in Iraq.

Why can’t these people just keep their mouths shut? How many voters will be swayed by his declaration anyway?

I believe a deep, sincere apology is owed to a lot of folks who were banished from FreeRepublic back in the mid-2000s for exposing people like Paul Wolfowitz as utter and complete @ssholes.
"Neo-conned" is right. These people are big-government globalists whose only interest in the United States of America is to provide financial and military assets to support their empire-building agenda.

I’ve NEVER been suckered as badly as I was by the Bush administration.

How many of Bernie Sanders' supporters are going to vote for Hillary Clinton once it becomes obvious to them that she is running to be president during the third and fourth terms of George W. Bush?

Amazing what has been revealed this time around.
The Bush machine has lots of scum like him. As does the Bush family itself. We’re better off without any of them.

Some of us were never suckered.
By 2003 it was obvious to me that George W. Bush was an @sshole, through-and-through. These big-government globalists are all the same.

Well, the only good one in the bunch turned out to be Dick Cheney. God love him as no way he is voting for Hillary.

In effect, the GOP ceased to exist as a national party when we arrived at mid-2015 to find that they had trotted out one more Bush as their front-runner for the 2016 presidential election.

Add Don Rumsfeld to the good guys. They threw him under the bus big time.
