College Republicans Praise Hillary for Iraq War Stance

[Carrieyazel]

Yes, I know its the Washington Slimes, but this did happen. They thank her for backing Shrub's policy in Iraq.

Particularly amusing is the part about College Repukes displaying signs "thanking Hillary for voting for the war."

1. College pukes counting on knee jerk reactions from Democrats.

Its a press release about a "protest" yet to happen.

Carrieyazel obliges these attention seekers by spreading Moonie Times garbage on DU.

[sufrommich]

5. And no doubt they'll get them. Some never learn. nt

[DemocratSinceBirth]

20. At Least She's Not Saying HRC Brought The Hostage Situation On Herself Anymore By Being So Hated

Consider it progress...

[ronnykmarshall]

32. This is true

but I don't hold out much hope for a full recovery.

The "I Can't Wait To Post Shit About Hillary Regardless How Fucking Lame Or Even If It Comes From A Right Wing Sorce Sydrome" is cronic illness. Hits the brain first and goes right out ones ass.

[ronnykmarshall]

31. With the emphasis on JERK

[Richard Steele]

2. Wait wait wait.....

OK, g'head. :popcorn:

[proud2BlibKansan]

3. One more reason she is not our best candidate

[Renew Deal]

4. This is what 8 months of a Hillary nomination would look like.

They're funny little buggers.

[Apollo11]

9. THIS IS EXACTLY WHY WE NEED OBAMA!

ONLY OBAMA CAN SAY THAT IRAQ IS "A WAR THAT SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN AUTHORIZED"

Thanks! B-)

[AtomicKitten]

11. bingo

[Apollo11]

28. You said it!

Hey AK! It's always good to see a familiar name her on DU! B-)

[AtomicKitten]

30. Hey, quit being a stranger around here.

We miss your nice yet sassy wit around these parts!

Best regards! :hi:

[Carrieyazel]

12. Also shows that Richardson's stance on Iraq in this campaign

is a bold and effective one.

[YOY]

6. I'll support her unquestioningly if she promises to draft only them,

bring back the regular troops, and have the armory give them blanks for their rifles.

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

7. One more sign the pugs want to run against Hillary...

does one really need to add the unvoiced "...NOT"?

10. You're incorrect. Knowing how the other side thinks is crucial to beating them.

Ignoring these Repuke publications is foolhardy. The Washington Times is, as Sid Blumenthal once described it, essentially a Repuke tip sheet.

[rinsd]

14. So you plan on regularly posting Moonie Times garbage?

[Carrieyazel]

16. I understand how everyone feels about a paper like that. I don't like posting their stuff.

[rinsd]

21. So don't post their stuff.

That would seem to be the simple solution.

[Ignis]

22. And then we can all play The Ostrich Game!

That's a much better solution than actually addressing and countering right-wing smears.

[rinsd]

27. This was posted to attack Hillary, not counter rw smears.

But good effort at defending posting Moonie Times garbage :thumbsup:

:sarcasm:

[Ignis]

33. So you don't care whether or not the incident happened?

You only care about the source provided?

Using a page from your own "I know your intent in posting this" telepathic playbook, I'm going to have to doubt that that's your only concern here.

[rinsd]

36. The OP is not posting in a vacuum.

Its not like the history of smarmy Clinton comments over the last few months go unremembered.

And since the article is basically the Moonie Times recycling a College GOP protest that might happen (hasn't happened yet) you consider it worthy of posting here?

And yes, sources matter.

[emilyg]

26. So don't.

[Ignis]

35. More importantly, this gives us advance strategic information.

If I lived nearby, I'd be there with enlistment forms for these oh-so-brave CRFRI students.

:hi:

[AtomicKitten]

13. She's their girl.

[sufrommich]

17. My god, is there any right wing swill some won't swallow whole

if it plays to their wishes?

[AtomicKitten]

18. Are you verklempt beyond belief?

There's a lot of that going around when people feel threatened.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

24. The Borscht Circuit Died About A Century Ago

Maybe you need some new material...

[AtomicKitten]

25. It seems the Clinton camp needs some new tricks -

because we've seen these sophomoric campaign shenanigans before.

[Perry Logan]

19. She's also black America's girl.

[TeamJordan23]

15. Obama said it best: He doesn't need political courage lecture from someone who supported IWR. nm

[zbdent]

23. Hillary should say:

"You're welcome ... now report to Iraq ..."

[ilovesunshine]

29. Swing voters! I'm one too...

"From one former College Republican chapter president to another," CRFRI Chairman Ryan Bilodeau said in a remarkably straight-faced statement, "I would like to welcome presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's campaign to Rhode Island and thank her not only for the vote she cast in 2002 that authorized the war in Iraq, but also for her recent commitment to keep combat troops in Iraq to fight al Qaeda if she is elected president next year."

34. Oh, but she was really against the war

She didn't want war, you see, that's why she voted to let Bush take us to war.
