WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Hillary Clinton on Wednesday urged Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki be replaced because he was unable to resolve differences between warring political factions.

She echoed a call made on Monday by the chairman of the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee, Democrat Carl Levin of Michigan, for Maliki to go because he was not making any headway in bridging the rifts.

"Iraqi leaders have not met their own political benchmarks to share power, modify the de-Baathification laws, pass an oil law, schedule provincial elections, and amend their constitution," Clinton, a senator from New York, said in a statement.

"I share Senator Levin's hope that the Iraqi parliament will replace Prime Minister Maliki with a less divisive and more unifying figure when it returns in a few weeks," she said.

3. I Made The Comment Last Night With Respect To Levin And I'll Make It Again Tonight......

replacing Maliki will provide * with another excuse to extend this occupation cause we'll have to give the new replacement time to get his act together and see what he can do. So we need to stay in Iraq until......

They're (Levin & Hillary) are just providing cover for *.
