Given Clinton’s hawkish record, I don’t think there was ever a chance she’d vote against the war. It’s hard to get inside her head, but it does seem that she has a real mad-on for the world’s slimiest bastards. I’m not sure where that hate comes from, but it’s admirable. ---

So you think it’s just incompetence. ---

> [@TriPolar](#): > > So you think it’s just incompetence. If incompetence means that she used the same standard for those bastard neo-cons that she would apply in good faith in terms of their word being their honor, then that’s what she has to carry around. I don’t work in Congress, so I don’t know what it’s like to have a co-worker look you in the eyes and just lie to you. It must not feel good, especially when you wanted to do the very best for your constituents in New York who died at the hands of terrorism. It must be sickening to have the taint of that lie stained on you forever. ---

It must be sickening to have the taint of that lie stained on you forever. Oh I understand, it’s because Iraq attacked us on 9/11. And you’re right, how could she imagine that politicians would lie to her. Poor Hillary, victimized again. ---

She gets Libya bombed, she stiffens Obama’s spine to get bin Laden, she helped negotiate the trade treaty she opposes(wink wink). ---

Hillary wanted to drop very loving and kind bombs on Libya. ---

But you need to do some research on basic facts, too. I’m not going to spoonfeed you anything, nor is anyone else. ---

I have it on good authority that Donald Trump once sacrificed himself to atone for the sins of all mankind, and Hillary helped flay and crucify him and then gave him a sponge with vinegar to drink, all while wearing one of those scrub-brush helmets like Marvin the Martian. ---
