260. Bill Clinton was commended for "patriotic" work by Reagan for helping the Contras!
Reagan sent several National Guard units to Honduras to train the Contras.

The Arkansas National Guard went and then Gov. Clinton ordered them to leave their equipment behind to be turned over to the Contras.

Reagan loved Clinton for this, and commended him for his "patriotic" work.

Hillary also helped and was "a closet Contra supporter":

She quietly aided Contra fund-raising in Little Rock. She also used her influence in US liberal circles to undercut the legitimacy of peace activists and pro-Sandinista church groups opposed to President Reagan's policies in Central America.

(The source is ROGER Morris, a former NSC advisor appointed by LBJ who resigned in protest of Nixon's illegal invasion of Cambodia. This is not DICK Morris, Clinton's toe sucking Republican consultant.)

Hillary's support of Junior's invasion and occupation of Iraq is consistent with her right wing foreign policies of the past.
