The Democratic presidential hopeful said in Iowa yesterday it would be "the height of irresponsibility" to pass the war along to the next commander-in-chief. She accused Bush of going to war "with an ill-conceived plan and an incompetently executed strategy." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The White House condemned Clinton's comments as a partisan attack that undermines U-S soldiers.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
my question is:
Will this White House ever have a thoughtful response to the people's concerns? Or will they continue to take the low road, dragging our country down into the dumps?

Remember this is apparently the President who always does "what is right", regardless of popular opinion, surveys, reality, or fact.

hilary wants a cut and run, because she thinks it will get her votes, and if she does get in the white house, god forbid, she does not want to deal with the war, partially because it will be her responsible duty as a human being (no matter how hard it may be for her) to act with the well being of iraq in mind (that means she would become a blatant hypcrite), and also because the democratic party has no substantial solution beside the cataclysmic cut and run idea, which is only a ploy to draw votes, any sensible person knows we can't just cut and run. politics is a game. the truth is anyone in bush's shoes probably wouldn't do things much different at this point in time. the game is to get votes, of course it is a partisan attack.
gotta give a hand to the white house. i think they are handling the radical criticism with much grace in the face of shrieking hollywood libs and college students with nothing to do. i sure as hell would not have been able to sit back an take it in such stride.

That's your opinion. I disagree with you completely. I'm glad, the president seems to be the only one still supporting the troops and their mission. Hillary is doing nothing but undermining our effort and trying to sabotage the mission by convincing the public that we need to give up and lose this war. I support the president, the troops, and the mission that we are trying to accomplish and giving up and pulling out is not an option at this point.
I strongly disagree that our country is in the dumps. We are seeing some of the best and most prosperous times in our nation's history right now and if you were a true American you would not throw our country's name in the dirt with you.

They should have simply called Hillary the hypocrite that she is and moved on. Hillary's nearly as big a flip flopper as Kerry. If the war were popular, Hillary would be touting her support of war resolution against Iraq and claiming she thought of the whole thing from the beginning. The woman has no class, and no principles.

She thinks that she is going to be president and want the job nice and clean before she takes over. She doesn't want to deal with big problems like Iraq and other difficult international issues. She just wants to control the lives of Americans and implement socialism, not deal with Middle Eastern nut jobs.

Hillary voted to use force, along with many other Dimocrats. They saw the intel that the Pres saw. Check the Dims voting record.

I think they've passed to point of no return. Why stop now? There's not much else to lose.
