Yikes...are things really that desperate in the Clinton camp that Bill comes out with a whopper like this:
"'Even though I approved of Afghanistan and opposed Iraq from the beginning', said Clinton, 'I still resent that I was not asked or given the opportunity to support those soldiers'[...]
I supported the President when he asked the Congress for authority to stand up against weapons of mass destruction in Iraq', said Clinton in 2003 while delivering commencement remarks at Tougaloo College in Jackson, Miss."
I actually remember being thoroughly disillusioned as, one by one, everybody bought Bush's bullshit. I wondered "Doesn't anybody read the paper? I was contacted about relief efforts in Iraq-they were looking for money, there was a humanitarian crises as a result of the sanctions from the first Gulf War. The No Fly Zone. Why the fuck is everybody (except for Blix, who was there) saying this guy has the bomb?"
They back away now, hoping that nobody will notice. I noticed. We noticed.
See...revisionism isn't just a Karl Rove/NeoCon thing...
And people wonder why I'm tooth and nail against another Clinton...
Excellent -- I hope this backfires on the Hillary camp. How pathetic...
ReplyDeleteI'm still wondering who the hell supports her. I've met plenty of people who support virtually every other candidate. Maybe it's just an Ohio/Kentucky demographic.
ReplyDeleteI spoke to a Hillary supporter who reasons that her rhetoric is a facade and we all know her real views are much more progressive than she is willing to admit at this point in the game.
ReplyDeleteYeah, and Bush was supposed to be a compassionate conservative. Are we really willing to take that risk again?
