49. You introduced the article and I simply quoted from it
It is typical that you want to cherry pick a few pleasant quotes from the article and skip the bombshell.

I have spent 10 years in refugee camps working with people whose lives have been ripped apart by war. For some of us war is a serious serious business. If you post an article that contains some half assed sarcastic comment about it, it will be discussed. This war is the equivalent of watching Hiroshima in slow motion and I can assure you if you ever had the opportunity to spend a month in a camp of people whose life is reduced to complete dispair waiting while their children are sick and their husbands are suicidal because they have nothing productive to add then you would understand that putting a ridiculus statement about needing "clairvoyance" to see this was a disaster was going to get a reaction.

But I will give Hillary a pass on IWR, I did for Edwards. The point I made and will make again is that it is her stubornnes, pure stubornness that is at play with her. Chelsea is in a terrible position because her mother simply will not say "It was a mistake and I was wrong". That stubbornnes which is clearly shown in the article that you posted is not the quality of a president.

You can go back to your tea party and the fluff pieces the 2 million Iraqi refugees cannot.
