Chelsea campaigns at Farm (now no one can say she's still "off limits")

Chelsea Clinton fielded questions about her mother’s presidential bid last night before an audience of more than 100 young women packed on the floor of the Pi Beta Phi lounge.(snip)

She addressed a series of questions about her mother’s campaign stances. “I can tell you what my mom said — that she would end the war tomorrow if she could,” Clinton told a student who asked about troop withdrawals in Iraq.

But she said an immediate withdrawal was not fully feasible, as many troops have been killed in convoys. She said that her mother would take 60 days upon entering office to develop a plan to remove not only the troops but also American civilians stationed in Iraq.

“Unfortunately, the Bush administration has not been planning to end the war,” she said. “A couple days ago, President Bush reiterated that he thinks the troops might be there for 10 years.”

Figures she would campaign at Stanfurd. Let her try to bring that act to Berkeley, and we’ll see what happens!

GrrrrRah! GrrrrRah! Grrr-rrr-rrr-rrr-rrr-rrr-rrr-Rah!

"...she would end the war tomorrow if she could"

"Could". Doesn't mean she "would", which is to say she likely wouldn't. Again, when a Clinton quote is involved, it needs to be parsed, no matter who delivers it.

Remove all American civilians?? I don't think so. There were a bunch of us who were asked to put in applications after the Gulf War...There was big money in reconstruction.

If Momma says to come home...They'll tell Momma to go to hell.

Does Hillary know we have troops in Korea and it's about 50 years now and it's still a hotspot??

I dunno. Those hands scream “Bill”.

She addressed a series of questions about her mother’s campaign stances. “I can tell you what my mom said — that she would end the war tomorrow if she could,”...

Notice how she's picked up the art of parsing? "If she could..." could mean so many things. Simply saying the war would end won't make it so.

Will Hillary "stop the war" after U.S. troops leave? How?

Doesn’t she have a job?

“I can tell you what my mom said — that she would end the war tomorrow if she could,”

Chelsea, dear - your mommy is clueless b**ch. Deal with it.

Close but no cigar.

Like Kosovo, but with actual national security implications.

I am sure she has a job with the Hillary! campaign.

You would be surprised how much it pays...

“But she said an immediate withdrawal was not fully feasible, as many troops have been killed in convoys.”

Does anyone understand this particular statement at all?

Should we ban convoys?

How many truckers have been killed in convoys?

Is there a pattern here we just haven’t noticed?

MISS HUBBLE CLINTON HER SELF!

[crazydad]

Dont forget germany and japan.. Should we bring home those troops to... Well in germanys case we need to move them east.

[reagan_fanatic]

I'm waiting to hear what Daddy says..

For now I just feel sorry for the girl.From the sound of things I just might come to despise her someday.
