Dear Secretary Clinton

[AtomicKitten]

36. She's a hawk, recklessly reactive.

Examples? She championed Bush's invasion of Iraq in a speech on the Senate floor urging her colleagues to vote yes on the IWR, this without bothering to read the intelligence. She (and her husband) publically criticized Obama's measured response on Syria and advocated a more muscular interventional policy. When informed of Gaddafi's demise, she laughed, cackling "We came. We saw. He died" - mind-numbingly tone deaf for someone who aspires to be a world leader. Finally is her admitted role in the rightwing Honduran coup and its horrendous aftermath.

What disturbs me most about your take on this is that in one post you admonish a poster for not planning to vote for Hillary reminding them of PNAC's complicity in promoting the ill-begotten Iraq War ... and in your next post you write favorably about Robert Kagan's piece on global interventionalism.

The PNAC crew prefer a Republican wins the presidency in 2016 but if that doesn't happen, they have made clear their next choice is Hillary. Like it or not, there's a damn good reason for that.
