Senator Hillary Clinton votes FOR a raise in the Minimum Wage, she votes FOR keeping abortion LEGAL, she votes FOR saving Social Security, she votes FOR protecting Medicare, she votes FOR our Senate Leader to be the Majority Leader, she votes FOR policies that are friendly toward Labor Unions, she votes FOR job creation programs, she votes FOR fairer taxation for the Middle Class, she votes FOR the protection of Food Stamps for the poor, she votes FOR policies that are favorable to gays and minorities, she votes FOR policies that are good for the environment, she votes FOR more Stem Cell Research.
Senator Hillary Clinton votes AGAINST Junior's extreme Right-Wing reactionary judicial nominations, she votes AGAINST anymore TRILLION dollar tax cuts for the wealthy, she votes AGAINST cuts in Education, she votes AGAINST cuts in Healthcare, she votes AGAINST Faith Based Fundie Insanity, she votes AGAINST the Repukes Fascist agenda.
Along with COUNTLESS other Democrats she was lied to about Iraq...and because of that she voted for the IWR...which she now REGRETS doing.
I look at Senator Clinton's record as a whole, as a good Democratic Senator. I'm not willing to throw Senator Clinton away and kick her into touch and LOSE another Senate seat and let the Repuke nutjob take that New York seat...just because Senator Clinton voted for the IWR and is co-sponsoring some damn flag burning amendment. If Democrats DIDN'T co-sponsor this thing, then the Repukes in 2006 would be running around saying "The Democrats think it's okay for you to burn the flag" The Repukes brought this amendment up to try and use it as a wedge issue...so we're not taking the bait this time, we'll vote for it and take the wedge issue away.
Senator Hillary Clinton IS a Democrat, she's married to President Clinton who IS a Democrat...they are DEMOCRATS, members of the DEMOCRATIC Party.
Senator Clinton is a DEMOCRAT...she's NOT a DINO...she's NOT a Republican...she's a DEMOCRAT.
Just felt the need to point this out you know. Thanks.
On Edit: My thread here won't get ANY votes...the Hillary bashing threads seem to be ending up with a lot of votes and getting on the Greatest Page...and that helps our party in WHAT way exactly? My thread will be on Page Two in half an hour, and I'm DEFENDING a Democratic Senator, so WHAT will that say?
