Lesley Stahl, said Kathy, had said, of the US., driven embargo on Iraq: “We have heard that a half million children have died. I mean, that’s more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it?” Albright had responded: “I think this is a very hard choice, but the price–we think the price is worth it.” --Albright, 1996

They've put that regrettable episode behind them. Permanently.

Why, for heaven's sake, can't you?

500,000 (1/2 MILLION) dead Iraqi children. "We think the price is worth it."

But I'm sure Hillary opposes each and every one of those, so no worries.

As the nuns used to tell us, "Tell me who your friends are and I'll tell you what you are."

When Murderin' Madeleine and Hillary team up, it's birds of a feather.

She saw what happened when Bill Richardson, a Clinton appointee, dared to oppose the anointed one. Guess she doesn't want to end up on one of Hillary's enemies lists.

Taking support from Bill Clinton requires a lifetime of allegiance to any member of The Family.

Who EVER thought she would do anything else? Certainly not me. Almost any long time elected or appointed Democrat has "gotten the memo" and THEY WILL be screaming loud and clear their support for Hillary. This Democratic Party who fights so hard for "we the people"... NOT!
