Tonight, Hillary passed the buck on ISIS.

[Cassiopeia]

She blamed everything OTHER than the war in Iraq for the creation of ISIS.

This was my biggest take away of tonight's debate.

1. that's how she rolls, this is more evidence of why she is unfit to lead this country.

2. Yes she did avoid mentioning the invasion of Iraq...

...I noticed that too. It is understandable that she would avoid "taking responsibility for the mess", since she is running for office, so why would she make such a statement? OTOH, I do expect her to be frank and forthcoming about the root causes of the widespread disorder and mayhem going on in the Middle East right now -- and anyone who has been paying attention knows that our invasion of Iraq in 2003 precipitated the current mess in the area, not limited to Iraq. And sadly, she has supported regime change elsewhere such as Libya, even after seeing what a disaster it was in Iraq (and historically it rarely ends well, cough Iran cough)...

She is wise to avoid that topic.

3. she can't duck on Iraq, Libya, and Syria forever--that's three big wars that she still sorta sees

silver linings to (and her supporters were screaming down our mouths that we have to invade NOW NOW NOW STFU HIPPIE)
