Obama: It's great that Hillary Clinton sent a letter to the Pentagon

[Kingstree]

but if she had not voted on the Iraq war in the first place, there would be no need to send that letter. GOTCHA! She's just appeasing the american public and covering her ass about that decision and still she won't admit that she was wrong or made a mistake. Very manipulative and not a very clear indicator of lackluster Presidential leadership and potential.

1. Blah, blah, blah

Yawn.......................................

[Colobo]

2. Obama > Clinton

[Kingstree]

21. You're just tired.....literally.

[jmp]

3. Every time he takes a swipe at her ...

He hurts himself. He keeps trying to wrap himself in "positive campaigning" but he can't hide his sharp elbows.

You'll notice that when she criticizes him, you can barely even tell that it happened.

[Ethelk2044]

8. No He does not he points out her weakness. He should go after her more often

[jmp]

11. He's welcome to continue doing it.

We'll see how his negative campaigning works.

[eweaver155]

18. He will and he will succeed

[jaxx]

19. You want him to fold?

I think we've been there, and nobody will ever fold again.

[DURHAM D]

4. Yeah - and then Dennis called him on his vote to fund the war. eom

[maximusveritas]

7. Voting to fund the war was the correct decision IMO

Russ Feingold and plenty of other anti-war Democrats voted the same way. I give Dennis credit for voting against the war, but he doesn't get any extra points for voting against funding from me.

5. Was that from tonight's debate?

It's a valid point; who knows what war the neo-cons will be pushing next?

[maximusveritas]

6. Not quite. He said that she and the other war supporters should have asked

what our plan for withdrawal was before we invaded instead of after it turned into a quagmire and the political calculations changed.

Here's what Obama said in Oct 2002:

"I know that even a successful war against Iraq will require a US occupation of undetermined length, at undetermined cost, with undetermined consequences. I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international support will only fan the flames of the Middle East, and encourage the worst, rather than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of Al Qaeda. I am not opposed to all wars. I'm opposed to dumb wars."

9. He is correct.

[MannyGoldstein]

12. But Mrs. Clinton Was Against The War She Was For

Get it?

Embrace the triangle, baby!

[illinoisprogressive]

10. what about her snubbing Obama when asked to compliment.

[Colobo]

13. She's feeling the heat...

[Ethelk2044]

14. Yes, she is.

[Ethelk2044]

15. Self Delete

[DURHAM D]

16. I think you are feeling the heat - getting a little desperate. eom

[eweaver155]

17. Actually she is. Her answers were not as crisp as they usually are.

[DURHAM D]

20. Sure. Whatever. eom

[emilyg]

25. What about it?

[WhiteTara]

22. he's a little disingenuous

in that he was not in the US Senate during the vote. He can say he didn't vote for it, but he wasn't in the debate, so we don't really know what he would have done.

[TeamJordan23]

23. But he made a public speech against it. If he was in it, he would have voted No like his Durbin. nm

[Ethelk2044]

24. No he is not. He was out Front stating it was not a war to be in.

Hillary was out in front pushing bush agenda to go to war. How was right? Obama

[JTFrog]

27. Just like she was out in front

spouting Bill's innocence when his fidelity was being questioned. Turned out he was with how many women? Who needs a woman president who is so gullible to men? And she never admits to being wrong in the end. Just that she was lied to. Speaks volumes about her judgment in my opinion.

Seriously, how is she supposed to be my role model? Or my daughters?

No. Thank. You.

[Dawgs]

26. It's just sad that you would use this lame Clinton meme.

Watch this video to see what Obama felt about the war (when Hillary was pushing it).
