CLINTON, Iowa - Hillary Rodham Clinton waded into Pakistan's volatile internal political situation Saturday, raising the possibility the country's military might have assassinated Benazir Bhutto because the killing took place in the garrison city of Rawalpindi. Clinton's remarks came as Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf's government seemed to reject a call for an independent international investigation of the murder that Clinton and John Edwards proposed on Friday. During a question-and-answer session at an elementary school here, Clinton offered a detailed prescription for the troubled country, suggesting that the U.S divert aid away from its military to social welfare programs. And for...

Hillary Rodham Clinton ... raising the possibility the country's military might have assassinated Benazir Bhutto

No US political candidate should be making that kind of idle speculation. If Clinton has proprietary information about the Bhutto attack, she should take it to the proper governmental agency. She should not be such remarks in at a political rally.

This is beyond irresponsible.

I cannot believe that Huckabee can stand there on MTP and blatantly deny that he was using that bookcase as an image of a cross. Nothing in any political commercial is unintentional; they are almost always planned straight down to the last detail.

This is a classic Clinton Crime Family tactic all the way. Create a huge brouhaha over an issue that no one knows what actually happened and then take every side of it there is,as she undoubtedly will. Meanwhile getting your name out there in the process with more enormous free press.

To try and create chaos and confusion in a country already on the brink is nothing short of traitorous. Yet the DBM will aid Queen hillary in her unending search for the ultimate power.

Hopefully this woman will stop herself as they usually do.

“No US political candidate should be making that kind of idle speculation”

u may be right, her remarks are speculative, but she’s only stating the obvious.
anyone with any knowledge about the situation in Pakistan knows of the radical elements in the military security services.

These people do not believe in the sovereignty of nations. They will put the needs of the United States under the demands of the UN so fast we will feel the breeze as it happens. She reveals her actual view of the world when she makes statements like the one about an outside commission investigaing a criminal matter in another sovereign country.

We'll have to see how George handles this in his probing interview with Mrs. Clinton.

PS - the article mis-spelled waddled

It’s beyond “beyond irresponsible.” She is engaging in an attempt to cause chaos and motivate more of a chance that Musharraf will be overthrown IMO. If that happens, we could well have a Shaw of Iran - Jimmy Carter replay with the Islamists in charge of nukes this time.

Hillary is just the perfect PR stodge from Al Qeda point of view. They eliminate a political foe and destabilize the Pakistani Government. Now they get major US political figures like Hillary feeding the Al Qeda propaganda line to assign the blame to Musharif;s Govt. Therefore Al Qeda gets to kill two birds with one stone.

Musharif is in a hopeless position. No matter what he does there is going to be a big chuck of world opinion that will always assume he had her killed. It’s a win win for the terrorists.

The people with everything to gain and nothing to lose in this is Al Qeda. That what makes it most likely they did it
