Hillary wanted the Iraq War.
<snip>

"If Mrs. Clinton is claiming her years as First Lady as part of her "experience" to be Commander-in-Chief, then surely, she must have known about that letter. Surely, the Clintons were fully aware of PNAC and its objectives."

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/3/6/72831/90642/755/470110

Hillary was more than just a "hands-on" First Lady - she was a "hands-IN". She also adds in her 8 years as First Lady in her tally of "years of experience".

She saw that letter - I think we all know that; nothing gets past Hillary. So she saw the letter, then watched, a few years later, as Bush declared war on Iraq. And she voted YES.

1. Obviously.
She thought it would go well, and help her at the polls.

5. Clinton fought off PNAC for years. But they were waiting at the WH when Smirk came in.
Next thing you know, we're going to start to hear how Bill Clinton decided to invade Iraq long before Bush got into office, and that Hillary was agitating for war in the middle east ever since her days at Wellsley.

KOS is a lost one.

6. She's a neolib, which is different than a neocon only in pronumciation.
And, neolibs are better at playing both sides of the fence. i.e. funding the war is only "supporting the troops".
