Thank god she didn't wait "EIGHT OR TWELVE YEARS" (as someone recently suggested she should have) to tell her story about "What Happened".

How typical that someone wants to INTERRUPT A WOMAN and try to deny her from being able to tell her story! Even though it doesn't surprise me, it still infuriates me that there are some people who are trying to SILENCE Hillary.

Why? What are they afraid of?

It's so disrespectful. People who do and say such things should be ASHAMED of themselves!

...I so admire is that she didn’t slink away...

I admire that about her too. She's not going to wait. She's not going to slink away into the corner to be forgotten. She's not going to be interrupted. She's not going to be distracted. She's not going to wait to be called on. She's not going to walk three paces behind. She's not going to be silenced. She's not going to be intimidated. She's not going to be insulted.
