Clinton dismisses Bush Iraq comments
Hillary Clinton yesterday called President George W. Bush's defense of his Iraq war policy and a mixed administration assessment of progress in the conflict "more of the same." She reiterated her call for a troop withdrawal.

"This report could have been given a year ago, or two years ago, or even three years ago," the Democratic Presidential candidate told the New Hampshire Union Leader and UnionLeader.com in a telephone interview from Detroit.

She said the administration's progress report was predictable.

"We know that if we have intense military presence in a certain neighborhood, we can drive the violence down," she said. "But we also know that the violence doesn't cease; it just pop up somewhere else because the Iraqi government is not pursuing any political track that can lead to a resolution of the outstanding issues."

2. Actually, I think *'s remarks were not more of the same.
He suggested that this is the beginning of a long war. And he said it in the same paragraph in which he talked about the other countries around Iraq. He is talking regime change in the whole of the middle east. His plans have just begun. He is one sick MF.

And: Go Hillary!
