Hillary Clinton destroys Hobby Lobby decision to cheers, applause

11. Those are all excellent points, JDPriestly

If I had my way we'd have Elizabeth Warren as President and a Congress full of people to her left, who truly believe in education, making the rich pay their fair share (double or triple what they pay now) and universal health care.

I don't hold Hillary to what Bill did as President. I had a major problem on her vote to approve of Bush going ahead with the Iraq War. At that time I wrote my Congress persons, and two of the three voted against that legislation. So I've always found her rationale (essentially that she wasn't voting for the war, she was just authorizing Bush to proceed) as disingenuous at best. I do feel that she would not have prosecuted that war if she had been President.

Regarding the 'sincerity' of Hobby Lobby, that was a reaction I had too. I think it's about the money. If it weren't about the money, they wouldn't be getting all their supplies from China, which has forced abortions.

I feel it's well past time we have a woman President. I'd prefer that it be Warren. If it's Hillary versus a republican I'll vote for Hillary. Without a strong Congress though (which the cynic in me says we probably won't get) it will be a lot more incremental progress rather that the bold & radical change of direction that I prefer.
