Joe Wilson just endorsed Hillary during an ongoing conference call with liberal bloggers.
TPMCafe noted: "It's interesting, then, to note that the primary reason Wilson cited for backing Hillary is her view of what should happen after the war -- her awareness, as he sees it, of the need to end the war "in a way that preserves some shred of our strategic position in the region." This, of course, touches on the whole residual force debate, which ironically is something Hillary has taken heat for from bloggers and others whom the Wilson endorsement is most likely to impress." I guess, I was wrong on Wilson's position of the Iraq invasion :( wikipedia on Joe Wilson, "After the 2003 invasion of Iraq, Wilson supported activist groups like Win Without War, a nonpartisan coalition of groups united in opposition to the Iraq War, has been quoted in the organization's press releases, and has been attacked by conservatives for such anti-war activism.[19] Nevertheless, according to an article to which Scott Shane and Lynette Clemetson contributed, published in the New York Times: "Despite conservatives' efforts to portray him as a left-wing extremist, [Wilson] insisted he remained a centrist at heart. But after his tangle with the current administration, he admits 'it will be a cold day in hell before I vote for a Republican, even for dog catcher.'"[20] Wilson endorses Veterans for a Secure America (VSA). 14 comments from 6 users

I will support Senator Clinton if she is the party's nominee. She is not my choice during the primaries.

I would not vote for Hillary Clinton for any reason. I would write in Micky Mouse or Donald Duck, she scares me - she is into a Socialized country.

So are you. It's called "The United States."

What in the world does "into a Socialized country" mean anyway? Is that just a way to dislike her, since you can't come up with any actual reason?I don't plan on voting for her in the primaries for 2 reasons. 1) She's too conservative for my taste. 2) I'm not a Democrat posted by

Have to agree with #1 there, Pete. But I'd vote for anyone before I'd vote George W. Bush a third term in the form of *ANY* Republican. In fact, I'd import a candidate from the Spam code: NFRNO before I'd do that. posted by

Which circle would that be from? Seems to me that's where we got the current one. 8th circle of course.

For those who were wondering, yes, the book jacket shown in the original post *HAS* been photoshopped.

That's correct. Joe Wilson is not the LIAR (oh wait, that's not very parliamentary of me is it.)

So which cabinet position are Joe and Val angling for?

I was thinking Secretary of State, and one of Robert M. Gates's old jobs (1991-1992)

I think Wilson would get "Borked".

And the leading Republican presidential candidate is ... none of the above. More Republicans have become apathetic about their options over the past month. A hefty 23 percent can't or won't say which candidate they would back, a jump from the 14 percent who took a pass in June. Giuliani's popularity continued to decline steadily as he faced a spate of headline headaches, came under increased scrutiny and saw the potential entry of Thompson in the mix; his support is at 21 percent compared with 27 percent in June and 35 percent in March.
