How can we not question Clinton's judgment if she think's McBombIran is qualified to be C-in-C?

[AnarchoFreeThinker]

Is this the sort of decision-making prowess she wants to bring to the White House--the kind that endorses insanity?

[Avalux]

1. She legitimized McCain - instead of saying he's a nutter, she said he's qualified.

TWICE. I still can't quite get my head around it. She does not have good judgement.

[soleft]

3. Maybe because on defense there's no difference bt them?

:shrug:

IMHO

[hedgehog]

2. Kick!

[whatchamacallit]

4. She's just trying to buttress the flimsy "more years in politics = superior experience" bullshit

she's based her whole campaign on. Therefore, right before he died, Strom Thurmond was the most qualified to be CIC.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

12. Which is why Bill was more experienced than Poppy.

Um, er,...

[whatchamacallit]

14. Does that include his years in the CIA?

Ha, nice pic

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

18. 4 in House. 8 as Veep.

And more years in the CIA than is in his resume.

[Rosemary2205]

5. He IS qualified

The best choice no, but qualified yes.

Natural born American - check
Old enough - check
lived in the US of A at least 14 yrs - check
never been an impeached POTUS previously - check
hasn't been POTUS for 6 yrs or more previously - check


He's qualified.

[AnarchoFreeThinker]

7. ha! we're all qualified!

[Rosemary2205]

26. Anyone who meets that criteria is qualified

getting the job is another story. :)

[Deep13]

6. Yeah, you guys have really been giving her a free pass until now.

Stop holding back. :eyes:

[AnarchoFreeThinker]

9. this, I take it, is the counterargument?

[Deep13]

11. .

:rofl:

[TwilightGardener]

8. She's an idiot. She just made a huge strategic blunder by taking the fight

onto HIS field, without having a history of wise national-security decisions to shield herself and battle him with, should she become the nominee.

[angie_love]

10. Exactly! War mongers love war mongers.

[BigAnth]

13. Does Hillary think that Bill was ready on day 1 back in 1992?

I find Hillary's positions to be highly self-serving and hypocritical. By any standards, back in 1992 George H. W. Bush had much more national security experience and was much more qualifed as Commander in Chief. I hope that the American people will see through her fear-mongering and phony arguements. And also, I don't think that being first lady counts for a hill of beans when it comes to credentials.

[whatchamacallit]

17. Bill was ready to answer 'the hot line' on day 1

"Hey baby, you got a pretty voice, I'm pitching a pup tent, whatcha wearin?..."

[AnarchoFreeThinker]

20. welcome to DU!

[dkf]

15. Apparently experience leads you to vote the war in Iraq and for bombing Iran.

Yeah just love that experience.

[Bright Eyes]

16. As I've said before, she cares more beating Obama

Then she does about beating McCain.

IMHO, she's poisoning the well against Obama, so he'll lose and she can run again in 2012.

[ericgtr]

19. If she gets the nod then McCain gets my vote. n/t

[Deep13]

21. Holy shit, and the O. supporters were vilifying me for saying I would have to think about it...

...before voting for O. in November!

Pointing out that McC has governmental experience is somehow being a traitor to the party, but an outright endorsement of the enemy is okay?

Oh, yeah, I forget, you can vilify HC anyway you want because she stands in St. Obama's way.

[flpoljunkie]

22. Excellent point! No way do we want "hot-head" McCain's finger on the "red button!"

[Deep13]

23. Well, no. We don't. nt

[Vinca]

24. Good point. All we need is a hot headed warmonger in the WH.

If that's Hillary's good judgment, she should step down before she embarrasses herself anymore.

[AnarchoFreeThinker]

25. I hear ya.
