Answer 1

She didn't know what a liar Bush is and actually believed the lies he was spreading about Iraq having WMD. You remember the lie Bush has Colin Powell tell to the UN. The UN still voted against us invading Iraq because they knew he was lying, having already searched Iraq. Colin Powell was so disgusted when he found out he had been used, that he resigned. Don't you remember Bush was calling anyone who questioned him a traitor? Mill Maher lost his job over it. Dark days for American.

You do know don't you that there were no WMD? It was just one of Bush's lies.

No, she is not a Fascist. However, Bush is a Nazi. The family has a long history of being Nazis. Bush's grandfather supported Hitler so hardily he even donated money to him.

Answer 2

I'm not looking at this quite as cynically as you are, that's for certain. I don't really blame those in Congress for voting the way they did on the resolution. We were all sold a bill of goods, including them. I understand exactly where she's coming from when she says she expected George Bush to go by the steps outlined in the resolution. Getting U.N. approval and exhausting diplomacy seemed like the right steps to those who voted yea on this resolution, and I think they believed that President Bush would follow it as well. He did not, he made a perfunctory jab at both and then pounced.

Yes, they had basically the same information the President had to examine, but we have since found out that the President kept presenting evidence to support the war even after he knew it was bogus (the yellow cake). Congress wasn't told that intel was bogus, and neither were we. I remember being convinced that this move was the best thing for our country, and I'm not happy about being railroaded by my President and feeling as though he took advantage of all of us when we were still reeling from 9/11 and wanted blood.

I'm less concerned with who voted for the war and who didn't than I am with what they are going to do about it NOW. Right now I think Sen. Clinton has the best plan for Iraq and this is very important to me. I don't see a flip-flopper, as the Republicans love to say. I see someone who has the intelligence and capacity to change her stance when she sees something has gone horribly wrong, and is capable of formulating a plan to correct it. I've already seen what stubborn unyielding "stay the course" has gotten us, so I'm not real impressed these days with politicians who cannot use their intelligence for something more than protecting their egos.

Answer 3

All this chatter about "Bush lied". You'd think that the Dems could come up with a better excuse than that! Long before President Bush was in office, many Dems were claiming the same thing....Saddam was a threat, Saddam has WMDs, etc, etc, and some of the Dem "sweethearts" were claiming this as far back as '92. So you Y/A answerer's that still use the worn out phrase "Bush lied"......do some research and stop being the good little sheep that the Dems want you to be.
Just to show how fair Repubs can be, I've included a piece of info that blows your "Bush lied" theory out the window, plus it will help you start down the road to doing your own research.

Answer 4

I think Hillary Clinton mislead Hillary Clinton on the Iraq war! But then again; with all the heat leveled at former President Bill Clinton by the Republican smear machine for HIS failure to get Bin-Laden, his failure to respond to the Cole incident, etc. Can anyone really blame her? C'Mon; Let's be realistic now, shall we? It's easy for you and I to say; "Well, I'd have just spoke the truth," no one's picking us apart and we're not in the public eye!!

Answer 5

Hilary is a liar, that's all. But what politician isn't. I can only name a few who I have any respect for. I will never vote for a democrat again I can assure you of that. I doubt I will ever vote for a republican either. The fact is the American's who love America, shouldn't buy into either one of these parties. What with rampid PC, multi culti, gay, and global warming crap, none of them are willing to deal with the real issue, only side issues to distract us and keep us off base with reality while they plunder the pork pie. None of them have the best interest of America or Americans at heart. Just try and get a straight answer out of any of them on any of the real issues (open boarders, homeland securtiy, illegal aliens). These are the real issues that real Americans who are not drug adulled, brain washed, or taught to be self righteous world saving inlightened progessive modern futuristic commies by the universitys are concerned with. We don't give a rats behind about "gay marriage or global warming." We want the boarders closed, illegals deported, no birth rights for illegals, no benefits whatsoever for illegals, deportation of illegals, and someone who will stand up for mom and dad, love of country, flag, boarders, language, and all the values that our grand parents had. Hilary is just an invention to garner votes from feminist, gays, animal rights activist, globalist, global warming stooges and all the others who no concept of who we are and where we are headed as a nation, or if we will even have a country to leave our children. Personally. I'd like to see her and many other politicains twist in the wind for what they are doing to my country, and I anit afraid the say that either. If that statement offends anyones PC sensibilitys then that's to dam bad. Cuz I don't care what you think either.

America forever. Constituion and the Bible. Love it or die!

Answer 6

Good job. All valid points that her supporters choose to ignore, or make excuses for. Many democrats made those same types of statements and now say that Bush is the warmonger because HE wanted this war. It is one thing to change your mind, but a totally different thing to vote a certain way based solely on what you think people want to hear at that particular time.

It's fine to criticize the government for choices that you think are wrong, but make sure you don't put the blame all on one person or party just because you support the other party. If you disagree with the war, then you should feel they are all to blame.
By the way, Bush was given the intel. report, just like everyone else, he didn't personally create it.

Answer 7

She didn't. She was mislead by Bush co. as well as the UN, and the rest of the world into thinking that Iraq had WMD's and that Iraq was a grave threat to the world.
say anything to win an election? no, again...you're confusing her with the Bush racket who lied and manipulated/convinced the world that Iraq was an immediate danger. You know, the ones who initially ran on a platform of a compassionate conservative in favour of small government.
How does her attempted healthcare reform in the 90s prove that she just re-iterates public opinion...when there was mass opposition both publicly and in congress.
Just because the Bush admin. is brilliant at manipulation, doesn't mean you can bash her for buying into Bush's lies at the time to go into Iraq.

Answer 8

I have to respond to the first answer. Hillary Clinton cannot have been misled by Bush, as she didn't read the information that Bush provided her.

Answer 9

Here's something else you forgot. That 'hore voted for the war because she KNEW she was going to vote AGAINST the extra money to give our troops the much needed body and vehicle armor necessary to keep our brave American soldiers safer and better equipped! I do not doubt that she also voted against funding to keep our satellite recognizance eyes on the enemies movements so they could sneak around undetected and kill our troops at their leisure!!!

Answer 10

because liberals don't have the balls to say Clinton did anything wrong and the libs were saying Iraq had WMDs before Bush was even president
