Nine Months On, Hillary Clinton Still Citing ‘Inherited’ Problems

(CNSNews.com) – From the time he entered the White House, President Obama frequently has spoken about having “inherited” an economic mess, and he has been criticized for it. But the expression arguably has been used even more often by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Nine months later, it is a theme she returns to regularly at home and abroad.
 
During her most recent trip, a six-day visit to Western Europe and Russia earlier this month, Clinton used the phrase publicly at least four times on three occasions.
 
At a joint press conference with her British counterpart David Miliband in London on October 11, she said with regard to Afghanistan, “We have been in office about nine months. We obviously believe that the prior eight years were not as effective or focused as they might have been … our challenge has been to take what we inherited…”
 
The following day, during a BBC Radio interview, she said, “I think there has been to some extent, inherited from our prior involvement in Afghanistan, a lack of clarity.” A few moments later she added, “We also don’t want to continue doing what we inherited.”
 
In Russia on October 14, Clinton said during a town hall event at Moscow State University, “We are making an in-depth review of our policy in Afghanistan. There were some things that we inherited from the prior administration …”

Hey Hitlery, how 'bout talking about the mess President Bush inherited from your husband, Billy Drop Drawers?  Why didn't we hear that sort of thing during his administration?...class.

better yet, "Hey Hillary, so problems at the State Dept take til after Oct to clean up and get things running smoothly?  So, what's Bill's excuse for Sep 11?  Bush was still fixing things, it was Bill's fault"

[THA HOUSTON PIMP IS IN DA HOUZ!]

This is measured and calculated just like when she coined Vast Right Wing Conspiracy and when Pelosi/Reid kept saying "culture of corruption".    Right out of the Lefty Playbook 101.
 
Will ANYONE please ask this shrew some tough questions and challenge her lame use of "inherited problems"?    Nevermind, I already know the answer to that.
 
Uh Hillary, we also "inherited" the problem of your husband not apprehending Bin Laden 3 FRICKING TIMES!!!!   And what about Madeline not-Albright sipping champagne with Kim Jong II?   Yeah, that really backed them down.

Sometimes, I think, I would have preferred a Hillary presidency over an Obama presidency.  It's days like this that make me realize they are one in the same.

Hi,

The frigging democrats urged Bush to bail out the banks, help the automakers etc. and bitched because he wasn't spending enough.  Much like voting for the Iraq war, they seem to have a short memory when it comes to blaming everything on Bush.

If, God forbid, 0Bama is elected to a second term, he and his minions will still be blaming President Bush for everything on January 19, 2017.

Of course.  The alternative is admitting that they've screwed up everything.  No way that'll happen.
