I didn't have a vote in that but Bush and Cheney proved me wrong too. I was naive.

I'm sorry.

Not any more. Fixed that!

Libya and its people were doing quite well economically with no assistance from any foreign bank. Fixed that!

Iran was/is also expected to become an economic powerhouse in the region ....... watch out.

His death also created a vacuum that will create serious problems in that region for decades.

Her callous disregard for life must not be allowed anywhere near the White House.

And so enterprising! She turned her insincere apology into a book pitch. Lord help us, and innocents worldwide, if she wins.

Senater/SOS Clinton is simply not leadership material. She has proven this over and over and over.

and it is NOT "plain and simple", that is a FUCKING repugnant thing to say.

She knew exactly what she was doing and the only regret she has is how hard it is to walk it back at this late date.

The statute of limitations on everything Hillary has said or done between 1992 and 2013 has run out. Yes, she lost to Obama in 2008 because of this vote, but, according to her supporters, it shouldn't cost her again.

After her "haha" apology, there's footage of her in 2011 talking about how excited she is about Iraq's business opportunities.

Then, a flashback from 2002 - eerie parroting of Bush and Cheney as she casts her vote "with conviction".
