"Iraq does pose a serious threat to the stability of the Persian Gulf and we should organize an international coalition to eliminate his access to weapons of mass destruction. Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to completely deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power." -- Al Gore, 2002

 The Qualifications of Hillary W. Clinton
By Dean BarnettAccording to the Clinton campaign's narrative of choice, Senator Clinton is the most sensible choice for president because of her "experience." This "experience" obviously doesn't refer to her single full Senate term--even John Edwards has one of those.

By Dean BarnettAccording to the Clinton campaign's narrative of choice, Senator Clinton is the most sensible choice for president because of her "experience." This "experience" obviously doesn't refer to her single full Senate term--even John Edwards has one of those. The "experience" that separates Hillary from the pack is her time in the White House, where she purportedly served as some sort of co-president/consigliere to her husband. On December 26, the New York Times published a lengthy article that gave the lie to such claims. In her time as first lady, Hillary Clinton didn't hold a security clearance. She didn't attend National Security Council meetings. According to the Times's strange formulation, "She did not assert herself on the crises in Somalia, Haiti and Rwanda." Left unanswered is the nagging question of who would have cared if she had "asserted herself."The Clinton campaign tried to strike back by insisting that her tenure in the White House featured some serious business. The candidate herself highlighted a perilous goodwill mission to Bosnia in which her airplane had to make a harrowing corkscrew landing to avoid danger. Among those accompanying the first lady on this daring errand were singer Sheryl Crow, the comedian Sinbad, and first daughter Chelsea.Some in the conservative blogosphere took the trouble to fact-check the candidate's account of her dangerous voyage and found the story, like many other things related to the Clintons, to be factually deficient. Not surprisingly, her account didn't square with official White House records or the actual situation in Bosnia.
