THE PRESIDENT CAN'T MAKE WAR ONLY CONGRESS CAN!
Edited on Tue Apr-22-08 01:17 PM by uponit7771
Hillary takes que from Bush on Iran, Bush & Hillary believe; 1.) The president can attack anything they want whenever, 2.) The president doesn't need a treaty between countries to respond to attacks on behalf of a country.

Hillary has made MANY points FOR Obama including her lack of judgment and her learning the wrong lessons from reThuglicans.

If you've been hurt in the past by someones actions either you'll be the type to protect others from those same actions or you'll be the type to hurt others as if you've been hurt.

I will hold my nose and vote Hillary if I have to but I know what I'm getting.

5. Didn't stop Chimpy, did it?
If Hillary doesn't care about the rules regarding Florida & Michigan, or even the universal laws of mathematics, why would she let something like that stop her, if her string pullers were telling her to "Bomb Bomb Bomb Bomb Bomb Iran"

9. I don't understand why her supporters can't face this
I just don't get it. This is the exact same kind of blind loyalty we've been horrified at for 8 years.

10. Hillary is dead wrong: only a 'puke president can do anything he wants, be it unconstitutional,
Edited on Tue Apr-22-08 01:57 PM by indepat
illegal, inhumane, ad infinitum ad nauseam 'cause the proof is in the pudding and anyone who thinks the 'pukes in the Congress and on the Supreme Court won't stop a Dem president in his/her tracks if the policy/action is not to their liking is a tad naive and maybe a touch stupid. :D

Edited to add last clause

11. she's just thinking about how she gave Bush permission to wage war
I guess she thinks the next congress will let her attack anyone
she wants to.

12. Unless it is a formal declaration of war, the involvement of Congress is just a tip of the hat.
It is not necessary.
