		<description>How very &quot;convenient&quot; to produce a campaign-era article that states Hillary tried to &quot;urge&quot; hubby Bill to intercede in Rwanda genocide.  I&#039;m sure there&#039;s lots of proof of that.  uh huh...  &#039;scuse me while I send the Clinton library another FOIA demand.  Right.

Any news articles of that era about Clintonian arguing in the WH over Rwanda to be had?  Of course not.  And what fool would expect Mr.-finger-in-the-air Clinton to act militarily against the will of the UN/UNSC majority?  Not his MO.

Nope... a &quot;report&quot; of being on the &quot;right side&quot; of an issue that timing says is too convenient, and too patronizing to be believable.  Pure stump stuff, and insulting to masses that like more than lip service as a character indicator.  
This BS is right up with the Bill absorbing the only admin experience she can claim - Hillary care - as his fault and undoing.  He will happily acquiese to be the scapegoat... just long enough for them to change their address to Pennsylvania Ave, DC again.

Also, INRE Ms. SusanUNPC&#039;s comment below... Wikipedia as a source?  Oh my...   &#039;nuff said.

The only experience one can attribute to Ms. Clinton is far from appealing.  Sad bit is, I have to agree that in the field of the Dems, she is probably the cream of the crop.  And that doesn&#039;t bode well.  

The same can be said of the Reps.  

And one of either corrupt party that is elected becomes my President - so count me not only a seriously concerned citizen, but more-than-usual highly unenthused about all voter.  In fact, it really all comes down to who will pick the best advisors.  And how will we know that?  Everyone is  stacking up the favors owed.</description>

		<description>&quot;Poor decisions&quot; based on what? Politics? Public opinion polls?

While Hillary did say &quot;if I knew then what I know now&quot; which was her way of weaseling her way out of the Iraq vote she made.

I want a leader - not a follower - a person who can make a wise decision and then have the courage (key word) to follow through.

By Hillary&#039;s statement, she does not qualify.</description>

		<description>Fine, except that Hillary has made it clear that she does not intend to bring all the troops home. She has stated clearly her intention to keep a large number of troops in Iraq indefinitely.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m impressed by her work as Chairman of Legal Services, Inc.  Under Carter, she quadrupled funding for legal services for the poor.  When Reagan tried to abolish Legal Services, Hillary tied him in knots so he couldn&#039;t.  Reports are that she was brilliant and aggressive in defending Legal Services from the President.

That was at age 33 - the age when  her Yale classmates were just vying for junior partner in corporate firms, she was running a $300 million agency &lt;em&gt;and&lt;/em&gt; winning a head-to-head cage match with POTUS.</description>

		<description>Clinton&#039;s showdown with Eric Edelman is a good example of what you&#039;re talking about.

While Obama was making speeches to court the anti-war left, Clinton had her eye on Cheney and the Pentagon.  She found out contingency planning for safe troop withdrawal was being blocked -- to limit the redeployment options of the next President.  We know what happened next -- she called Edelman on it, and put pressure on Gates.  Hillary had sources in the Pentagon that alerted her to Edelman&#039;s game, bucking Cheney in the process.  A perfect example of the difference between saying &#039;bring the troops home&#039; and making it happen. 

Nixon said that, even in 1960 after 8 years as VP, he didn&#039;t yet have the skills to make his China opening.  It took him another 8 years traveling the world to get to that level.</description>

		<description>Oh, Hillary has the courage of her convictions on her bad decisions about Iraq. Feel free to correct me, but as far as I know, never once has she suggested that she would change any of her votes on Iraq.

I would far rather see someone in the White House who has the courage to recognize, admit, and do what is needed to reverse poor decisions.</description>

		<description>Regarding how they operate under stress and work with dissent, I don&#039;t know about any specific examples for either Hillary or Obama. However, Hillary as some behaviours that look to me like red flags, and would prompt me to look carefully at her record if I were considering voting for her.

For example, there is that horrid sarcastic, derisive, shrill and lengthy laugh she has unleashed on her opponents on several occasions.  I have called it a cackle a few times, but that calls up the image of a witch, which is not at all what I am suggesting, though the word laugh just doesn&#039;t quite capture the sense it conveys. It does not give me a comfortable feeling about the way she deals with those who oppose or disagree with her. At this point, though, all I am saying is that in that light of that and a few other things, I suggest digging a bit deeper.</description>

		<description>The best predictor of future behaviour is past behaviour. Hillary has consistently taken hawkish positions, and made hawkish statements in regard to foreign policy and military policy. Harder to tell with Obama, as he does not have as lengthy a track record, but so far his record matches hers pretty well.</description>
