Hildebeast not happy with new plan
U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, who opposes Bush's plans to send more U.S. soldiers, met Saturday with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and the two top American commanders during her first visit to Iraq in nearly a year.

The New York Democrat, who was expected to run for her party's presidential nomination, called the situation in Iraq ``heartbreaking'' and said she doubted the al-Maliki government would live up to promises it had made about cracking down on violence.

``I don't know that the American people or the Congress at this point believe this mission can work,'' she said in an interview with ABC News in Baghdad. ``And in the absence of a commitment that is backed up by actions from the Iraqi government, why should we believe it?''
If/when she's president, of course, no one from the other party will dare go to a foreign country and criticize her plans. She'll make sure of it.
Clinton, who was making a one-day visit to the country, was traveling with Sen. Evan Bayh, D-Ind., and Rep. John McHugh, R-N.Y. All are members of armed services committees.
