"This December will mark three years since United Nations inspectors last visited Iraq. There is no doubt that since that time, Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to refine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer- range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies." -- From a December 6, 2001 letter signed by Bob Graham, Joe Lieberman, Harold Ford, & Tom Lantos among others

 Hillary Unfit to Be US President: The "Experience" Myth
By Joan SwirskyIn the first of my Hillary-Unfit-To-Be-President series, I first and foremost addressed the New York Senator’s clear and even frightening lack of qualifications to be the leader of our country’s Foreign Policy. Hillary wants to convince the electorate that she comes to her claim of superior preparedness for the highest office in the world by dint of her “experience.” So let’s forever dispense with this absurd and self-aggrandizing myth.

By Joan SwirskyIn the first of my Hillary-Unfit-To-Be-President series, I first and foremost addressed the New York Senator’s clear and even frightening lack of qualifications to be the leader of our country’s Foreign Policy. Hillary wants to convince the electorate that she comes to her claim of superior preparedness for the highest office in the world by dint of her “experience.” So let’s forever dispense with this absurd and self-aggrandizing myth.Hillary’s Arkansas “Experience”Hillary’s first substantive “experience” in the political world was as First Lady of Arkansas, during which time she was a partner in the Rose Law Firm, acting as “rainmaker” to bring companies that dealt with the state into the firm. According to an article in Counterpunch.org. (“The Seeds of Corruption: Hillary Clinton in Arkansas,” by Alexander Cockburn and Jeffrey St. Clair), Hillary flunked her first bar exam in Washington, D.C., and “her legal expertise hasn't been cited in any law journals so her expertise is pure speculation.” Moreover, “Bill Clinton controls access to all 2000 boxes [of Hillary’s records from Arkansas] and he won't release the documents until after the 2008 election.” So much for Hillary’s legal prowess and the “transparency” she pretends to advocate for, which Maureen Dowd of the NY Times explains as her “Nixonian bent for secrecy.” And that is not to omit her current refusal to pressure Clinton Library officials to release the papers that are relevant to her years in the White House.When then-Governor Clinton selected his wife to reform the state’s education system, Cockburn and St. Clair say, she put forth “an astoundingly regressive proposal since it imposed new costs on the poor in a very poor state…The plan went through, [but] Arkansas' educational ranking remained abysmal.”But isn’t learning from one’s mistakes part of the process of evolving? For most people it is, but apparently Hillary is not a quick study.
