Clinton says she disagrees with MoveOn regarding foreign policy
and national security. Here is the quote:

"And they (MoveOn) are very driven by their view of our positions, and it's primarily national security and foreign policy that drives them. I don't agree with them. They know I don't agree with them."
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/celeste-fremon/clinton-slams-democratic_b_97484.html

What the HELL does this mean? What positions does she disagree with? Getting out of Iraq? Illegal wiretapping? She has to respond to this. We need to hear exactly what her differences are with MoveOn's positions on these issues. Does this mean she doesn't want to get us out of Iraq or that the wiretapping is lovely?

1. Clinton loves to talk about "massive retaliation" and a "US security umbrella"
Edited on Fri Apr-18-08 07:17 PM by Cali_Democrat
Her appetite for destruction is insatiable. She is truly the goddess of war.

3. The "US security umbrella"
Really made me cringe as well.

It worried me just a bit. :scared:

5. I really think this is important. Over 3 million people and she disagrees
with them specifically about foreign policy and national security? This is something that really needs to be answered...and not just for the presidential primary, but so that her constituents in NY that think she's a Dem can see the truth.

6. That's it! Forget the inside baseball stuff.
What exactly does she disagree with? She needs to clarify that shit now.

7. The people she is supposed to represent in NY have a right to the
answer to that question as well. This has me furious.

12. Move On won't let it go. HRC just declared herself a Pro-War Hawk in League with Bush with
that statement. She's sunk.

18. She favors the war in Afghanistan, as does Obama. Moveon doesn't (or didn't at least)

20. Baloney - She's talking about GENERAL foreign policy - and the biggest is Iraq. We KNOW she's lying
about withdrawal from Iraq - I heard her speech on the senate floor condemning any withdrawal timetable for troops - now she pretends she is a leader on the withdrawal issue, ever since Lieberman lost HIS senate primary and right before she launched HER primary campaign for president.

21. Can you find a link to any Moveon statement - in any email anywhere
that shows them against the war in Afghanistan - I haven't seen one. In fact, they like Kerry in 2002 - 2004 spoke of resources being diverted from Afghanistan to Iraq.
