Post; Hillary Clinton Making Trip To Iraq


Philadelphia Inquirer
January 13, 2007

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton and two other lawmakers are headed to Iraq this weekend as Congress engages in fierce debate over President Bush's plan to send 21,500 more troops there.
Clinton, a Democrat from New York who is considering running for president, is traveling with Sen. Evan Bayh (D., Ind.), who had also eyed the 2008 race but opted out, and Rep. John McHugh, a Republican from Upstate New York.
The three, all members of Armed Services Committees, are to meet with top Iraqi officials and U.S. military commanders. The trip also will take them to Afghanistan.
"This was the first opportunity we had to be able to go, because of the long weekend, and it turns out that the timing is propitious because of the president's plans," said Clinton, who opposes Bush's plan to send more U.S. troops to Iraq.
Bayh stressed he wanted to meet with top Iraqi officials and judge for himself how serious they were about using their own troops and leadership to stabilize the country.
