    The woman has a 30-year record (maybe you should read it?), and flatly put, there's not much in there to suggest she's 'spinless', as you so kindly suggest.

    For instance, try Googling "Health Care 1994".
    Because that was the popular thing to do, right?

    Right!? $700 Billion a year this nation spends over and above any other country on health care, this 'system' is absolutey ruining people, it is among the most well-armed political lobbies on the planet, and as far as I know (does anyone dispute this?), she and her husband have at the very least made the biggest effort to solve the problem.

    •  I saw her interview on PBS (1+ / 0-)

      or the Mcneil Lehrer news hour.

      I thought her points were valid. Her points about putting constraints on the administration were important. The more that message gets out there, the better. Also she did a good job of explaining why we have to stop funding these Shia militias that are carrying out ethnic cleansing. And those are my words not hers. But she did talk about how we have to stop giving the Iraqi military funds. And I especially like what she said about Iran. Something along the lines of - this administration is so inept, no way we can allow them to attack Iran. I thought it was a good interview. I would not call her a war hawk. I am very pleased that she is calling for getting the troops out although she does not favor doing so immediately.
