Hillary Clinton Watch: Newt Gingrich Calls Hillary”FOOLISH”

Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Hillary Clinton speaks to supporters Sunday, May 6, 2007, during a campaign stop in Council Bluffs, Iowa.

Gingrich: Clinton looks ‘foolish’ on Iraq

Former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich Sunday said Sen. Hillary Clinton’s call for repealing congressional authority for the Iraq war “made her look foolish.”

“Well, I think, quite frankly, it made her look foolish,” Gingrich told host Bob Schieffer on CBS’s “Face the Nation.” If she honestly believed that we should get out of Iraq, vote no on the funding. The Congress has every authority under the Constitution to force the president out of Iraq.”

Clinton, D-N.Y., last week said and Sen. Robert Byrd, D-W.Va., would introduce legislation to end authority for the war in Iraq, proposing Oct. 11, 2007, as the expiration date for the congressional resolution approved Oct. 11, 2002.

Gingrich said Clinton’s proposal was “essentially an effort by Senator Clinton to appease her left who are very angry at her for, you know, not having gone back on her vote on the war.”

Yes, Newt has it RIGHT. Hillary is “SUCKING UP” to the Left who wants her to apologize for voting to authorize the war.

NO GUTS NO GLORY, Hillary…….
