In Case Anyone Was Wondering Where the "Blame the USA" Count Stood

...Hillary upped it by one yesterday during her testimony before the House Foreign Affairs Committee:

Even as she came out strongly against the Pakistani establishment for lagging willingness to take head on the terrorists, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Friday said that the US was also partly responsible for the present mess as it virtually abandoned Pakistan after the Soviets left Afghanistan.

Yes, you heard that right. We done it.
Of course, she took the free shot at Bush, too, while basically admitting they have no clue either.
...Clinton defended Obama's effort to engage diplomatically with Iran, calling it a reasonable alternative to what she called a failed Bush administration policy.

"We tried the policy of total isolation for eight years," she said in a rising voice, "and it did not deter Iran one bit. The nuclear program has continued unabated. They weren't supporting Hamas before. They are supporting Hamas now."

Clinton said it remains unclear whether international pressure on Iran will compel it to change course.


Yup. That's us!

"They weren't supporting Hamas before. They are supporting Hamas now."

Complete fantasy. Iran has been supporting Hamas at least since Slick Willy's time in office.

I'm sure our vaunted MSM will call Clinton on her dangerous BS. Hahaha...sorry, lost my head there for second.

Y'know what this is? Campaign rhetoric. She's running for 2012 already. If Obambi thinks he can out-Chicago Hilary, he's dumber than he looks.

Unclear to her, maybe. Not to anyone who can see and think.

do the work for them.Sick,weak,incompetent leaders

those in Germany in 1935 who watched their government fall into the hands of crazies." How could
Germans stand by and watch?" Now we know!!!
