Isn't the MIC a 50 state equal opportunity employer?

They are indeed guilty of believing Dubya and Cheney's fabricated evidence of a WMD program, as were most Americans.

Get real. Or are you saying Hillary is really stupid? I'm pretty sure she's pretty smart. The Dems went along to get along. In other words they were cowards protecting their seats.

Which one of Trump's transgressions beats that?
Then there are plenty of others to share the blame on Iraq. as to revealing the content of her speeches that is copyrighted material and as someone who has had copyrights violated the laws of this country in that area are toothless - unless you are bloody wealthy.

If I had a speech that would get me $250,000 a pop you can be bloody certain that I would not make it publicly available. That foolish I am not.

Not exactly.

She and her husband bought the place for $20 grand in 1961.

Her daughter ended up selling it for $583,000 in 2014, and trying to get $5 million for it.

Not a bad return.

What it is is a couple of thousand words desperately trying to whitewash the simple fact that she voted for a bullshit war that resulted in about a million deaths.

Yep, roughly half the Dems in congress went along with it.

And I hold them even more responsible.

It was expected that Bush's own party would back him.

But those Dems gave him the cover he needed to proceed unimpeded.

Tom is so predictable. Just like I said earlier... He dismisses Clinton's accomplishments.... Just like his hero, Trump, with little regard for truth and accuracy.
