More bad footage for Hillary: She is excited and hopeful about Iraq's business opportunities in 2011

[WARNING: NSFW]

Most of you have not seen this footage. Hillary and her people probably wish no one would.

2011: Secretary Clinton is excited and hopeful about Iraq's future and the business opportunities that Iraq has for US Oil companies.

It's not until 2014 that she admits her vote to authorize the war was a mistake. Coincidentally, while promoting her book and positioning herself to begin her campaign.

1. Looks like the last minute kitchen-sink Hillary bash is starting.

[Betty Karlson]

2. I think the criticism over the Iraq War started the moment she announced.

That was the worst decision she ever made. (And I am including her opposition to equal rights.)

4. Those pesky quotes.

Always there for people to hear.

5. Please, where is the "bashing". She "made a mistake" when it was convenient to switch.

You don't just, hahahah, make a mistake about bloodshed, permanent injuries, families ruined or impacted forever. If she cannot run on her record, which of course she can't...she needs to be primaried.

Her punishment should be to listen and watch hours of what we just saw. Who knew there would be maiming and killing of innocent children? Hopefully she wouldn't laugh at that. HRC just couldn't or didn't want to figure it out.

Get your insults right. Ranks right up their with "cut it out". And I think many vets would shame you for your "kitchen-sink" put down.

For shame.

ETA: She had "hard choices" to make...see, here's my book everyone. Go out and get a copy, OK?

3. This absolutely infuriates me.

I haven't seen anything that pisses me off more than this in the last few years.

Riding on *'s coattails. That's sick. She's a work of art.

6. WTF is wrong with that?

Are we supposed to hope Iraq suffers economically?

A lot of people who supported the war later decided it was a mistake. That's how Dubya became unpopular and helped Obama win on the platform of putting an end to it.

8. The point is to show how clueless she was about Iraq's future.

She was wrong in 2002 helping Bush start the war, and clueless in 2011.

11. She is not clueless about Iraq

A pretty good guess she knows a lot more than anyone posting on DU.

7. Yawn, trying to get some business growing in Iraq? Bad!!! Voting for business to have immunity?!?!?!

... Good!!!


When you REALLY need to throw rocks from a glass house support

9. Stop bashing Hillary with the truth. Her supporters don't like it. The sad

truth is.. it may have been a different world if she would have stood up to the Neocons. But that wasn't in her heart. It wasn't in her DNA then. And there is no reason to think that it is now.

10. Ok, I'll be the one

That last image of the woman lying on the grave is an Afghanistan war widow. You can tell because an Iraqi war widow's position on her fallen husband's grave is a bit different. Two different wars where the suffering is different for the survivors of each.
