 'It's for NY to decide if Hillary can lead military'
Whether Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., is a military leader is for the people of New York and the military to decide, according to a spokeswoman for President Bush. The issue came up because of Clinton's choice to be in California on a campaign trip instead of in a ceremony this week at which President Bush posthumously awarded the nation's highest military honor to Navy Seal Lt. Michael Murphy of New York.

Whether Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., is a military leader is for the people of New York and the military to decide, according to a spokeswoman for President Bush. The issue came up because of Clinton's choice to be in California on a campaign trip instead of in a ceremony this week at which President Bush posthumously awarded the nation's highest military honor to Navy Seal Lt. Michael Murphy of New York. The question came from Les Kinsolving, WND's correspondent at the White House. He asked: "When the president posthumously awarded our nation's highest military honor to Navy SEAL Lt. Michael Murphy of New York, Sen. [Charles] Schumer of New York was present. But New York's other U.S. senator was absent, 'campaigning in California,' her office explained. And my question: Does the White House believe that any political campaigning justified this New York candidate for … commander-in-chief of our armed forces being absent from this ceremony for a killed-in-action U.S. Navy hero?" "I don't know - look, I don't know the details surrounding that senator's schedule, and I'll let the people of New York and the people of the military decide that," said Dana Perino, Bush's spokeswoman. The award for Murphy, presented to his parents, is the third Medal of Honor bestowed on the war on terror, all posthumously. Murphy, of Patchogue on Long Island, was the 29-year-old officer who commanded a four-man SEAL team doing reconnaissance. He was given the assignment of capturing or killing a high-ranking Taliban leader in the Hindu Kush mountains behind enemy lines.
