Both coasts today were busy with tens of thousands of protesters to the war in Iraq. Celebrity sightings at this event included Susan Sarandon, Sean Penn and Jane Fonda. Such demonstrations only helped to increase the pressure on the presidency to end this bloody oil war. Such pressure may have contributed to today's Hillary announcement about the war and Bush's abuse of war powers. Here is a slice of that...New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton blamed President Bush on Saturday for misusing authority given him by Congress to act in Iraq, but conceded "I take responsibility" for her role in allowing that to happen.In an interview with The Associated Press, Clinton also said she would not cede black votes to Barack Obama (news, bio, voting record) and that she had proven as a U.S. senator that gender is irrelevant.Of her husband, the former president, she said he would have a role in the campaign but "I'm the one running for president."Clinton was making her first campaign swing through this early nominating state, which twice voted for Bill Clinton for president. She met with key activists and held a raucous town hall meeting with 1,500 cheering backers and hundreds of journalists."I have said clearly and consistently for quite some time that I regret the way the president misused the authority," said Clinton. "He misled Congress and the country on what he was seeking and what he intended to do."The responsibility Clinton said she accepts was helping clear the way for Bush's path in Iraq."I take responsibility for having voted to give him that authority," she said. "My focus is on what we do now. That is the proper debate." It is CNN vs Fox. Hopefully the dispute will lead to the realization that both are guilty of misinforming the American people of the crimes of this administration. Although Fox by far is a propaganda rag with little to no credibility, CNN's hands are far from clean either.More stuff as I find it. Peace. A note on copyrights.
