Hillary Clinton always comes prepared

As a recent swing through New Hampshire shows, if Hillary Clinton is not elected president in 2008, it won't be because she didn't do her homework.

    ...letter-perfect quality preparation?

    There is no more pressing issue facing the U.S. today, perhaps the entire world, than the Iraq war (*on global terrorism - as it is my understanding that is now the sole justification for U.S. presence there - 'the front on global terrorism?')

    The far-reaching consequences of unjustifiable U.S. pre-eminance through the use of military force in world affairs will be a destablizing force for generations to come.

    To say that I am disappointed in Sen. Clintons support for the Iraq 'war' would be a gross understatement.

    Furthermore, Sen. Clinton's more recent assertions that the Bush Adm. 'mis-used'(?) her vote for the authorization for use of force in Iraq seems disingenuous at best. Her assertions that she was fully briefed and 'aware of all the arguments'-notwithstanding the intell-estimate and UN inspectors reports to the contrary - seems a bit more than a lack of the 'vision thing'!

    bah.
