Breaking News: Hillary Clinton is Dick Cheney in Drag

"She characterized the latest violence as the last gasp of "rejectionists" ....

Her analysis echoed that of former vice president Dick Cheney and former defense secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld. Cheney spoke of the insurgency being in its "last throes" during a period of relentless violence; Rumsfeld talked of "dead-enders" who kept fighting a lost cause"

That's change for you, America? Where is the liberal outrage?

I keep waiting for you to open your eyes and join us, but then again we know what controlled opposition is now.


"Clinton makes surprise visit to reassure Iraqis; Violent week brings queries, jittery welcome" by Mark Landler, New York Times | April 26, 2009

BAGHDAD - Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton arrived here unannounced yesterday to reassure Iraqis that the United States will support them, even as it withdraws combat troops. But with Iraq reeling from a week of suicide bombings, she got a jittery reception from a country that still plainly relies on the United States for security, stability, and economic survival.

In an encounter with Iraqi students, journalists, and activists, Clinton was peppered with questions about how the United States could help Iraq in ways large and small - such as building confidence in the Iraqi armed forces and supplying farmers with more up-to-date machinery.

Clinton, making her first visit to Baghdad as secretary of state, promised to help Iraq with these and other issues. But, she told the audience of 120, there were some things Iraq had to do for itself. "The more united Iraq is, the more you will trust the security services," Clinton said in response to a question about the army from a young Iraqi journalist. "The security services have to earn your trust, but the people have to demand it."

Clinton insisted that the recent suicide bombings, which killed 160 people and wounded hundreds more, did not mean that Iraq was returning to the sectarian violence that convulsed the country two years ago. But her first stop in Baghdad was to get a briefing on the security situation from the American commander in Iraq, General Ray Odierno. Security concerns also came up immediately in Clinton's meeting later in the day with Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki....

Translation: WE ARE NOT WITHDRAWING and NEVER WERE!! That is just a STRING FOOLEY the LYING, AGENDA-PUSHING, WAR-PROMOTING MSM has been putting out there for YEARS!!!

Clinton, who had flown in from Kuwait on a military transport plane, was greeted in Baghdad by the new American ambassador to Iraq, Christopher R. Hill; the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Mike Mullen; and the Iraqi foreign minister, Hoshyar Zebari. She was then driven to the new American Embassy in a heavily armed motorcade.

If violence is down and things are so much better there, WTF, MSM?!!!!! Bunch of lying s***ters!!!

"In Iraq, there will always be political conflicts," Clinton said to reporters on Friday evening, before setting off on the visit. "But I really believe that Iraq, as a whole, is on the right track."

She sounds like the last Sec-of-State, no?

She characterized the latest violence as the last gasp of "rejectionists" who feared that the government would succeed in creating a united and peaceful Iraq. The suicide bombings, she said, are "in an unfortunately tragic way, a signal that the rejectionists fear that Iraq is going in the right direction."

Clinton has been a regular visitor here, coming three times as a senator to chart the progress of a war she voted to authorize but later said had been mismanaged by the Bush administration. She said she was pleased to be back, though the attacks cast a shadow over her visit.

While the violence is far below the worst levels in 2007, 18 major attacks this month have kindled fears that Ba'athist jihadist elements could be reconstituting themselves into a smaller, but still deadly, insurgency that will exploit the withdrawal of US troops between now and 2011.

Clinton compared these latest suicide bombings to a spectacular terrorist attack that occurred several months after the Good Friday peace accord ended years of conflict in Northern Ireland.

Her analysis echoed that of former vice president Dick Cheney and former defense secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld. Cheney spoke of the insurgency being in its "last throes" during a period of relentless violence; Rumsfeld talked of "dead-enders" who kept fighting a lost cause.

On Friday, General David H. Petraeus, the commander of the military's Central Command, testified before a subcommittee of the House Appropriations Committee that the suicide bombers might have been part of a militant network based in Tunisia.

Clinton did not provide specific information on the bombers, but said: "We've seen suicide bombers from many countries in Iraq over the last six years. It's unfortunate that young men, and occasionally even a young woman, would travel to Iraq to kill other people in that way."

Yeah, UNLESS THEY INVADE on the basis of DAMNABLE LIES, right, you contemptible bitch? Also see: The Clinton Two-Step

At least half the dead from the recent bombings were Iranian pilgrims, and yesterday, Iran's supreme religious leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, blamed the United States for the killings.

Gee, WHO would want to KILL IRANIANS, hmmm?

"The main suspects of this crime and similar ones are the US security and military forces," the ISNA news agency quoted him as saying. He added that he expected Iraqi officials to provide better security for Shi'ite pilgrims traveling to Iraq's holy sites.

YUP!!!!
