WASHINGTON - Sen. Hillary Clinton has been hitting the Bush administration hard over the Iraq war lately, but said yesterday she has no regrets over voting for war.
Clinton's hawkish comments were made on ABC's "Nightline" when she was asked about supporters who want her to say she's sorry for voting to authorize President Bush to attack Iraq.

"I understand that, because certainly the feelings about Iraq are very raw and deep, and I share them," she said, according to a transcript of the broadcast. "But I don't think that's responsible."

She added, "I can only look at what I knew at the time, because I don't think you get do-overs in life. I think you have to take responsibility and hopefully learn from it and go forward."

I would like us to be gone as soon as we responsibly can," she said. "If there were a failed state now in control of all that oil, that would have consequences for a long time."

6. Why can't any of the fools who voted for the Iraq War Resolution

as damaging to the constitution and the former balance power as it was, constantly remind their critics that the resolution had a specific condition that * would only be authorized to invade Iraq after acquiring UN approval??? HE NEVER FRIGGING GOT UN APPROVAL !!!

Sheesh & sorry for yelling.

8. Sorry, "Hil," but it's not OUR oil to protect.

And you DID authorize this war in your vote, and I WILL NOT vote for you for president.
