Clinton Links Candidates Without Foreign Policy Credentials To Bush
Clinton HAS NO foreign Policy Experience... What is she talking about?

The AP reports this morning that Hillary Clinton "warned Iowans" yesterday "against voting for a candidate who doesn't have foreign policy experience, suggesting her leading rivals would be no better than President Bush in that regard." Said Clinton, "It is tempting any time things seem quieter for a minute on the international front to think that we don't need a president who is up to speed on foreign affairs and military matters. ... Well, that's the kind of logic that got us George Bush in the first place." Her comments triggered "laughter from her friendly audience at a high school auditorium." Clinton's advisers "described her speech two weeks before the Iowa caucuses as a closing argument against top rivals Barack Obama and John Edwards, as well as Republican candidates with little international experience." The New York Daily News adds, "Clinton Thursday hurled the dirtiest four-letter Democratic epithet to describe arch-rivals Barack Obama and John Edwards: Bush. With another four-letter word -- Iraq -- fading from headlines, Clinton insisted the world is still too dangerous to trust anyone less experienced than she is."

CNN reported on its 'Political Ticker' blog that Clinton's foreign policy comments constituted "a new line of attack against" Obama, but that "Obama spokesman Bill Burton sounded the campaign's familiar mantra in response - that what Obama lacks in foreign policy experience he makes up in judgment."
