89. I never repeated RW lies against Dean. I used facts from his centrist past

Fri Mar 22, 2013, 03:49 PM

Mar 2013

as a governor to challenge him from the left. RW was painting Dean as far left.

And again, dec - how many times do I have to say to you that O'Donnell may have chosen Hillary quotes because she was an UNWAVERING SUPPORTER of Bush's decision to invade, where the others you would prefer mentioned had displayed regret or criticized Bush's military leadership publicly. Heck, Kerry attacked Bush for deciding to invade before the invasion. Kerry stood with the weapon inspectors and against the invasion. You're just whining for no reason, dec. Get over this silliness. If you're whining already in anticipation of 2016 primary and screaming that O'Donnell is a propagandist hoping his audience will believe that Hillary was the ONLY Dem who supported Iraq, then maybe it's time for a rest, eh...... because you'll need it.

She REFUSED to read the NIE. And she NEVER apologized to this day Liberal_Stalwart71 Mar 2013 #136

She was a warhawk, no doubt about it pscot Mar 2013 #16

Bingo. And she saw a run at the presidency in the future as well Ishoutandscream2 Mar 2013 #17

If that were true, she had very POOR insight into the voters she represented karynnj Mar 2013 #103

I'm sure many American Jews opposed the Iraq invasion pscot Mar 2013 #111
