Yellowcake Whore
Joe Wilson now whoring for Hillary. Actually, what he mainly does in the piece is tout his own foreign policy accomplishments and those of Bill Clinton. As to Hillary herself, Wilson notes:
In the Senate, she has aggressively exercised her oversight responsibility and held the Pentagon's feet to the fire on plans related to withdrawal from Iraq, shaped legislation requiring reports to Congress, and cosponsored legislation with Senator Byrd to deauthorize the war with Iraq. She has exercised the levers of power because she knows how to do so.
Not so much about the "levers" she "exercised" in voting to authorize the fucking war she's now evidently done so much to "deauthorize."
It's interesting how in his "analysis" of Obama's "shallow foreign policy credentials" he manages to work in references to Rev. Wright and Tony Rezko--key figures in any discussion of foreign policy experience.
Good going, Joe!
