Hillary Praises WWII Win, Plans Iraq's Defeat

At the liberal Take Back America conference, Sen. Hillary Clinton (D.-N.Y) praised American GI’s for liberating Europe after World War II, but vowed to withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq, regardless of the political outcome in the Middle East.

“I believe the best way to support our troops is to finally start bringing them home and out of this sectarian civil war that we have no business being part of,” she said.

In her speech, the Democrat candidate for president said, “The American military has succeeded. It is the Iraqi government which has failed to make the tough decisions that are important to their own people.”

The audience booed Clinton’s remarks about Iraq, as it did last year, largely because she refuses to apologize for her 2002 vote to authorize the war.

She also told a story about former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright’s trip to Europe to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the end of World War II.

Hillary’s a joke. The Democrats are fragmented. She’ll only win, if our Party nominates someone who is a “moderate” on key issues and has a scandal or two in his background.

Albright - the worst Secretary of State of all time.

She’s a dangerous lier, She’s trying to split the American people. It took over 10 years to rebuild Europe, and We are still there.

Of that heartwarming memory, Clinton said, “I want to be the President that restores that feeling around the world. And, equally importantly, I want to restore that feeling here at home.”

It’s all about her. “I”, “I” and her delusional need for power. Heartwarming.

Anybody else happen to see her making this speech? She was doing a “manly” imitation this time. It was as bad as her southern drawl.

“Albright - the worst Secretary of State of all time.”

...but at least she had her beautiful smile to get by on.

Senator Clinton couldn’t care less about our troops.

See my tagline.
