a reminder of Hillary and George's precious gift to Iraq.
that keeps on giving.

http://www.hillaryclinton.com/news/speech/view/?id=6631

There’s so much to be done here at home and, of course, around the world we have to restore America’s leadership and our moral authority and that means we’ve got to begin ending the war in Iraq. And I have been outlining this week, as we mark the fifth anniversary of George Bush’s preemptive war that he waged, I have been outlining plans as to what we can and must do to begin bringing our sons and daughters home. I am convinced that we can start within 60 days and do it in a responsible and careful manner,recognizing that the Iraqi government has to take responsibility for its own future,

---------->that we have given them the precious gift of freedom and it is up to them to decide whether or not they will use it. <----------

But we cannot win their civil war. There is no military solution.

===
so how's that fancy package doing, Hill?
2 million Iraqi refugees,
1 million dead.
give or take, numbers, schmumbers.

4. This is Bush's war.
It is not Clinton's war, Obama's war, the Democrats' war.

I don't care if you like Clinton or not. No Democrat started this war.

This is Bush's war.

5. too many dems were stupid enough to go along.
Those who did have an ownership percentage of it.

were they all so stupid as to be hoodwinked by a moron, or was it something they did for political expedience and f*** the consequences.
