Blaming Hillary for the Iraq war is simple enough to do, but it wasn&#039;t just her. Obama doesn&#039;t have a thimble full of experience on the world stage and can&#039;t even express himself clearly when asked. The drivers licence question the other night in the debate was exactly what he critized Hillary for the week before.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Obama&#8217;s ass wasn&#8217;t on the line.
