Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton said she is not sorry she voted for a resolution authorizing President Bush to take military action in Iraq despite the recent problems there but she does regret "the way the president used the authority."

"How could they have been so poorly prepared for the aftermath of the toppling of Saddam Hussein?" the New York Democrat asked Tuesday night on CNN's "Larry King Live."

Typical Dem response. I voted for it before I decided against it.

Telling Kerry how he should have explained away his obvious hypocrisy.

Of course she doesn't regret HER vote. She, like John Francoise Kerry, only regrets how others have f***ed up the situation that she supported.

Since the invasion of Iraq a year ago, no weapons of mass destruction have been found. The Bush administration has cited evidence that Saddam Hussein's regime had the capability to produce such weapons.

Capability to produce? It's a bit more than that. We know for a fact that chemical WMDs existed. The question is what happened to them. We also know they had a capacity to produce biological WMDs but have not found any agents. It's a shame the press has to dumb this down and is unable to accurately separate out chem WMDs from bio WMDs and characterize the situation accurately.

"How could they have been so poorly prepared for the aftermath of the toppling of Saddam Hussein?" the New York Democrat asked Tuesday night on CNN's "Larry King Live." "I don't understand how they had such an unrealistic view of what was going to happen."

?????

Hey, Your Heinous! I thought one of your jobs as Senator was to ADVISE the President. At least that's what Daschle, Leahy and the Kopechne Killer keep telling us. So I suggest you change "they" to "we."

She's been bad-mouthing and mean-spirited since she occupied the WH. This is nothing different. She's a typical demoncRAT political hack. She's sickening to watch. I experience the greatest pleasure when she's on tv and I get to turn her off.

Dear Hillary:

War involves constantly changing plans. We thought we would be doing house to house when we arrived in Baghdad and I'm sure we would have lost many more than we have.....but the cruds waited until "things were going well" for the people of Baghdad and the USA and its' allies. It's called tactical and you work with it.

Hitler worked on the premise that the USA was not "resolved" to stay with the fight.

Hillary said on a Russert show that "It was the Democratic Policy since 1998? that there should be a regime change in Iraq." Bubba said the same thing in a few of his speeches and he also said "Scr** the UN at the same breath.

"I said I wouldn't run, and I really mean it. I'm not going to run."

It's official: Hillary is Running!

I have no clue, but I'd rather have him out in the open, where we can watch him.

If the pattern holds true, the Clintons usually run around screeching about their opponents before a bombshell hits one of them, in order to minimize the impact.
I think something’s about to surface that could be damaging to Hillary’s political aspirations.
