Following In Her Mother's Footsteps?

Has your mother shown any remorse for the fact that her vote cost Iraqis a million of their lives?” a student asked Chelsea Clinton on Monday at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Ms. Clinton replied: “She cast a vote based on the best available evidence. Perhaps you had clairvoyance then, and that’s extraordinary."
When I read this quote by Chelsea Clinton I was very disappointed. I had thought(or hoped) that the daughter of Bill and Hillary Clinton would be more aware, more compassionate, more in tune with what was right and wrong with the world even waaaay back in 2002. Without the blinders that(supposedly) kept her mother(and others) who could have thrown up some roadblocks to dubya's Iraqi bloodbath from seeing what was coming. You know like millions of us did waaaaayy back in 2002.
Sweet, shallow, protected Chelsea is apparently as aware of the political world as Brittany Spears. Below is Barry Crimmons who'll fill us in on what this all may mean. Be sure to go to Barry's web site and get the rest:

"..Back in 2002, I thought millions of others who also foresaw a calamitous quagmire in Iraq were just regular people, like me. I thought we'd simply drawn some sensible conclusions and then taken a principled stand. But according to charming child of privilege Chelsea Clinton, we were all much more special than that.."
