Vote yes for war

Hillary Clinton on why a vote for the Iraq war was not a vote for the Iraq war (from Meet the Press):

"Judgement is not a single snapshot," she said. "We can have this Jesuitical argument about what exactly was meant. But when Chuck Hagel, who helped to draft the resolution said, 'It was not a vote for war,' what I was told directly by the White House in response to my question, 'If you are given this authority, will you put the inspectors in and permit them to finish their job,' I was told that's exactly what we intended to do.

Just the kind of f*cking pretzel logic we need in a Democratic nominee. Puhleeze! OK, I'm not nearly as bright as Mrs. Clinton. I'm not a politician, but even a dork such as I could see, just from reading the newspapers, that Bush had every intention of using his authority to invade Iraq, no matter what happened. So don't try to make me swallow this, maam. We all know that you calculated your vote for political cover, and nothing more. And now it has backfired, because the war you let Georgie have has resulted in the deaths of thousands and drained our national treasury. Behold the finger of shame wagging at you!
