Libtard on libtard violence...
"3. Read the interview, however, and you also see Clinton's weakness as a candidate: she is more hawkish than the post-Iraq Democratic Party. She is upset that she lost the internal administration debate over whether to intervene in Syria. She's focused on the expansive ambitions of radical jihadists. She takes a hard line on Iran's nuclear ambitions. She's frustrated that Obama thinks more about the dangers of action than the dangers of inaction. She's dismissive of Obama's shorthand foreign policy principle "don't do stupid stuff". She wants the country that defeated fascism and communism to develop a grand — and more interventionist — strategy to guide its leadership of the world. She sounds like a Democrat from 2002 rather than 2014"

David Axelrod swipes at Hillary Clinton over Iraq
By MAGGIE HABERMAN 8/12/14 10:39 AM EDT Updated: 8/12/14 4:09 PM EDT
David Axelrod, the longtime top adviser to President Barack Obama, has taken to Twitter to slam Hillary Clinton in the wake of her comments rejecting the core of the Obama administration’s self-described foreign policy principle.
In an interview with The Atlantic, Clinton said the White House doctrine of “Don’t do stupid stuff” is “not an organizing principle.”
“Just to clarify: ‘Don’t do stupid stuff’ means stuff like occupying Iraq in the first place, which was a tragically bad decision,” read the tweet from Axelrod. He declined to expound on the tweet when reached via email by POLITICO.
As a senator during the presidency of George W. Bush, Clinton voted to authorize the use of force in Iraq, a vote that played a major role in costing her the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008.
Although Clinton has always been more hawkish than Obama, her comments to The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg were widely taken as an attempted calibration away from the increasingly unpopular president as she ponders a second White House run.
Axelrod’s astonishing public swipe at Clinton revealed the extent to which Obama allies are furious over her interview, in which the former secretary of state also allied herself tightly with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and called Obama’s decision to not assist Syrian rebels early on a “failure.”

Hillary's next job probably won't pay $200k to hear her speak:

Hillary is inevitable... until she actually has to talk to people who aren't paying her.

^ Brilliant, as always! It doesn't get more insightful than 'old, used bitch'. How could anyone consider an assertive married woman over sixty as Presidential material?
