Clinton Spars With Petraeus on Credibility

Submitted by Richard Zimmer, Sep 14, 2007 00:05

Hillary's comments to Gen. Petraeus (who is our top general) was insulting. That would be like a presidential hopeful challenging Roosevelt in 1944 telling General Eisenhower he doesn't know what he's talking about and suggesting he's a liar. The way she openly loathes the military, I can't imagine her being our next commander-in-chief. By the way, "Suspension of disbelief" is a sort-of double negative. Hillary must have meant, "Suspension of BELIEF".
