Right On The Right

Rush Limbaugh and others are calling for Republicans to vote for Hillary Clinton in tomorrow's Ohio and Texas Primaries, to keep the race going. As if we needed more evidence to support the idea that infighting is hurting the Democrats, Barack Obama made yet another gaffe while criticizing Hillary Clinton. FOX News has the story and Hillary Clinton is of course trying to slam the future Democrat nominee with it:

He said that Sen. Jay Rockefeller, a fellow Democrat from neighboring West Virginia, had read the intelligence estimate as a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee and after a brief pause said the then-chairman had voted against the war resolution.

However, Rockefeller was not the chair at the time and voted in favor of the war authorization. Sen. Bob Graham of Florida was the intelligence committee chair in 2002 and voted against the resolution. Obama did not mention Graham’s name in the passage.

“She didn’t read the National Intelligence Estimates. Jay Rockefeller read it. But she didn’t read it. I don’t know what all that experience got her because I have enough experience to know that if you have a National Intelligence Estimate and the chairman of the national, um, Senate Intelligence Committee says you should read this, this is why I’m voting against the war, that you should probably read it. I don’t know how much experience you need for that.”

Barack is the candidate that made the educated decision on Iraq and he doesn't even know which lead Democrats opposed the war. He's clinging to the anti-war issue simply because he didn't have to vote on Iraq. He was busy helping the liberal majority in Illinois pass bad legislation. Barack isn't the educated choice, he's the liberal choice.
