Clinton Gives the Surge a Standing Ovation, while Obama remains in his Seat.
Clinton and Obama’s divergent views on the troop surge in Iraq, however, were plainly visible.
When Bush proclaimed, “Ladies and gentlemen, some may deny the surge is working, but among terrorists there is no doubt,†Clinton sprang to her feet in applause but Obama remained firmly seated. The president’s line divided most of the Democratic audience, with nearly half standing to applaud and the other half sitting in stony silence.

1. actually
Their statements on the Surge --and how it's a failure--are nearly identical.

2. So was she applauding the surge as a strategy or the soldiers who are surging?

5. The quote would lead me to believe she was applauding the strategy
When Bush proclaimed, “Ladies and gentlemen, some may deny the surge is working, but among terrorists there is no doubt,†Clinton sprang to her feet in applause but Obama remained firmly seated. The president’s line divided most of the Democratic audience, with nearly half standing to applaud and the other half sitting in stony silence.

40. any Democrat who stand to applaud miserable psycho war-criminal and his illegal slaughter supports
that his criminal, murderous slaughter for power and oil. But then, they won't impeach the illegitimate, election-stealing little fraud for his crimes against the Constitution, won't stop funding his slaughter in Iraq, won't stand against his transfer of wealth from workers to owners,won't stand against his far-right wing SCOTUS nominees, won't oppose his torture-condoning appointees, won't stand up to the corporate powers who fund their campaigns, and ignore the only candidate running with clean money. At this point I am not far from not giving a damn who wins the election, since it is plainer than ever that the only winner will be the militrary-industrial-prison complex Party - the Corporatocrats

47. In fairness, he was up and out of his seat cheering for invading Iran -
When Bush warned the Iranian government that “America will confront those who threaten our troops, we will stand by our allies, and we will defend our vital interests in the Persian Gulf†Obama jumped up to applaud. Clinton leaned across Sen. Joseph Biden (D-Del.), seated to her left, to look in Obama’s direction before slowly standing.
yes - she calculated her move, but Obama cheered for this.
:lmao:
