Hillary Clinton channels George W. Bush

Not too long ago, President Bush notoriously famously asserted:

You're either with us or against us in the fight against terror

Oh, those were the days the anti-war patriots were incensed, and feebly fought back that opposing crazy wars ... oh well, you remember all those days, don't you?

Years passed.  The US was deep in two wars. Then, the president got term-limited. (If we didn't have the constitutional amendment, would Bush have won a third term, too?)

A new president came into office promising hope and change.

The change was that instead of a surge in Iraq, we now had a surge in Afghanistan. And then to compensate for the winding down of activities in Iraq ... President Obama took the fighting to the shores of Tripoli.

Congressional authorization for war be damned, this new president declared, thereby confirming that Bush had won a third term after all..

The current Secretary of State, who was lauded for her testicular fortitude during the primaries, now eerily echoes (ht) President Bush:

the bottom line is, whose side are you on? Are you on Qadhafi’s side or are you on the side of the aspirations of the Libyan people and the international coalition that has been created to support them? For the Obama Administration, the answer to that question is very easy.

I suppose we need to remind ourselves the immortal words of the previous vice president, as a statement on behalf of the Bush/Obama/Cheney/Clinton composites to us, the anti-war people, as well:

go f--- yourself
