Hillary Clinton's long strange journey on Iraq

On this sad fifth anniversary, I can't help wishing she'd been bolder in admitting her mistake in voting to authorize Bush's war.

    @ ljwalker53 - That's it? That's all you've got?

    So your defense of those four terrible votes that Hillary made is not a defense at all, but instead a claim that Obama made some bad votes, too?

    Good strategy there. That'll really fire everyone up to vote for Hillary!

    Come on. Defend your candidate. Iraq, Iran, the PATRIOT Act, the bankruptcy bill. One vote after another from Senator Clinton, D-NY. And all of them WITH George W. Bush and the Republicans, and AGAINST the Democrats and the interests of the people of the United States of America.

    She's so brilliant and wonderful and experienced, right? That's what she and all her supporters keep telling us. So explain those votes!

    Yeah, we know, you hate Obama. He eats babies. He's an intellectual lightweight who can barely walk and chew gum at the same time. He sucks. WE GET IT!

    But explain to us why we should vote for someone who on so many crucial votes has sided with George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and Joe Lieberman. WHY?
