5. Whatever, Hillary bashing threads are out of style

And it is Obama who is in charge and responsible for the aid money, unless you think Hillary orders him around.

6. Not a Hillary Bashing thread.. not even close...

Hillary is giving away OUR money.. not hers....

You are correct... who could have authorized Hillary to give away Millions? Let's see.... mmmmm.. the man on the moon?

In a bid to shore up flagging relations with a key ally, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced more than $500 million in aid projects to Pakistan at a meeting Monday in Islamabad. The projects, meant to bolster Pakistan's infrastructure through agricultural improvements and construction of health facilities and dams, will be funded through the Enhanced Partnership With Pakistan Act (also known as the Kerry-Lugar-Berman bill) that President Obama signed into law last October. The act allots $1.5 billion in nonmilitary aid to Pakistan annually. Clinton's visit with Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi was part of a two-day swing through Islamabad and marks the second ministerial-level session of the U.S.-Pakistan Strategic Dialogue, aimed at improving ties and building support for America's fight against the Taliban and Al Qaeda in the region.

8. You are kidding.. right?

[MyNameGoesHere]

10. No in my world

Congress appropriates money and the President signs it into law, The Secretary of State follows the law and announces the funds in public. So your lie will not stay long.

[Obamanaut]

11. I betcha there are projects in the US that could use some of that

$1.5 billion annually "The act allots $1.5 billion in nonmilitary aid to Pakistan annually"

[MyNameGoesHere]

Sure we could and I wonder why Senator Kerry would have

introduced the bill and why Obama signed it?

[MyNameGoesHere]

12. freaking dupe

[polmaven]

9. it has been more than 2 years

Since Hillary dropped out of the race and endorsed President Obama. Don't you think it is time to finally, once and for all, get over the primaries?

She did NOT make any offer without the permission of and at the direction of the president.

[lib2DaBone]

13. Don't try to make this about Hillary... it isn't working....

[polmaven]

14. I'm not going to argue -

Your OP SCREAMS your dislike of the SoS, and you know it.
