Headline: Sen. Clinton says immediate withdrawal would be mistake
What I want to know is:

1) Why does it take YEARS to train Iraq's and weeks to train our own service men. (Something smells funny)

2) Why is Hillary a Dim son stoolie?

Here is the story link if you want to barf: http://babyurl.com/d6PSoT

1. Maybe because our own soldiers' loyalties don't have to be tested?
Just a thought.

6. As long as she is viewed as a potential candidate for the Presidency
the press will be reporting everything she says in public. And that's *their* job.

7. How curious
The headline could just as easily have read: "Sen. Clinton says administration enabling Iraqi dependence." I wonder why Newsday ran the headline it did, since according to the story Clinton is saying pretty much the same thing that Murtha is saying, which is that the United States needs to start planning on how and when it's going to get out of Iraq.

Of course, the folks who just read the headlines will draw a totally wrong and uninformed conclusion, so maybe Newsday knows what it's doing after all.

14. Newsday got the headline right
Edited on Tue Nov-22-05 10:11 AM by computerfreak77
Hillary did not agree with Murtha.

While professing "the greatest respect" for Rep. Jack Murtha of Pennsylvania, the ex-Marine who called for a troop pullout last week, Clinton said, "I think that would cause more problems for us in America."

8. We need to get the Stay and Die Party out of
leadership positions in both the Democratic and Republican Parties. We need to overthrow the corporate tyranny that has taken over our Republic. We need, in short, a second American Revolution.

9. Because
Completing training of the Iraqis is the best case they have for staying there.

Hillary is a corporate Democrat.

12. Headline: Voting for Hillary will be a mistake.
Wouldn't want to get out front on an issue, after all it has been focus group tested. Better wait till the polls show 99% of the people support immediate withdrawl. wouldn't want to risk alienating the swing voters and all. The base-fuck em.

13. Do not be afraid of not voting for Hillary
Pro-occupation candidates should not be rewarded for their imperialist views. What would Hillary say if Guatemala invaded us? That they made mistake but should stay for a couple of years?
The only difference in this case is that Guatemala does not have the military power, although the motives would be the same as those to invade Iraq: None.

17. I can not figure out #1 either.
What reasons are they giving? I haven't heard any. Even stupid ones.
