My son is a National Guard Staff Sergeant that had serious problems in Afghanistan with the blatant War Crimes and War Profiteering that he and his troops witnessed, along with these same issues experienced by his fellow military buddies that served in Iraq. They are all Pre- 9/11 and are mostly quitting or have quit their 2nd careers at 8 years due to our chickenhawk, 5 deferment, AWOL administration not being prosecuted and convicted for their crimes. They have been waiting for years!
Now, Hillary Clinton wants to play the "Woman" card and the victim of being beat-up by the boys. If she wasn't sold out to the corporate, MIC complex she would never have had a problem.
As a 52 year old single mom of three successful children, I would proudly vote for a woman, but not Hillary. What the hell was that Kyl-Lieberman IRAN "Yes" vote about and which corporate entity lobbied her to make that choice? Our "ruined" military can't take another pre-emptive War against Iran, especially when we haven't YET helped the Afghans and Iraqis with our present corrupt and criminal administration.
Hillary is reminding me of a girl from my high school that was pushy, disliked and that ran from table to table to be the chairwoman of some G.A.A. committee and we were all smart enough to send her along to the next table. I hope that our democratic voters are as smart in the primary. Hillary will get her ass kicked in Florida in the general election as the young, crucial, often registered "Independent” voters are mostly registered that way because they despised the Clinton and Bush administrations for their devisiveness and/or their corporate ties.
My SSG son, his military and local friends, my senior son at FSU, his friends and my medical intern daughter and her hubby are all Obama fans. The 1st time they have all agreed on politics.
Our world reputation and our country is in so much trouble. We must remove the corporate control, we can not pardon the criminals and we can not threaten another country. love and peace, mjd
