FROM THE THANKSGIVING ARCHIVES: BULLY FOR HER:
Sen. Clinton Spends Thanksgiving in Afghanistan (Fox News, November 27, 2003)
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton promised Thursday that America will stand with Afghanistan as it tries to rebuild after a quarter-century of conflict and warned Taliban rebels that they "are fighting a losing battle."But the New York Democrat also said more troops are needed in the multinational military coalition providing security. She told The Associated Press it was for others to decide whether those troops should come from the United States or other countries.
The former first lady, who was in Afghanistan along with Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I., on a whistlestop tour to spend Thanksgiving with U.S. troops, said the United States is determined to support Afghan President Hamid Karzai.
"I am very impressed by the resolve of the Afghan government, President Karzai in particular," Clinton said after a meeting with Karzai at the presidential palace.
She spoke in a room at the palace still pocked by decades of conflict. Two windows behind Clinton had bullet holes in them.
The willingness, even eagerness, of our congressmen to visit the troops reflects very well on them all.

From someone who detests her husband as much as I do the following comment is an exceptional albeit begrudging form of praise.
She done good.
That's it. Her husband was right when he advocated American intervention in Bosnia and she's right in what she's doing now.
If the Democrats are ever capable of recovering their right minds then Hillary doing a Harry Truman impression is the way to start.

As can readily be seen by his post-presidential behavior when his every move and thought wasn't orchestrated by his co-president, Bill Clinton is a total idiot.
Hillary is dangerous because she actually believes that she is the savior of the party, the country and the planet. I just happened read about the anniversary of Jonestown and the kool-aid suicides and it reminded me of Hillary because I believe she has the same kind of single-minded, deranged fanaticism as the Rev. Jones' adherents.
Unfortunately, there many more out there who will believe that Hillary is indeed their savior and benefactor and will vote for her. God please keep President Bush safe and lead him to victory next election. The alternative is too dreadful to contemplate.
