82. Seriously? You Are Suggesting Hillary Clinton Was Involved In Shooting Down This Plane?

IDK WTF is wrong with people like you who jump at the chance to blame Hillary Rodham Clinton for anything and everything that goes on in the world...

As for calling her a war hawk, please stop using her Iraq war vote to conclude she is a war monger and loves wars and if she had it her way she would start a war just for the hell of it.

Alot of Democrats voted the same way she did, and that is because she and the entire world were lied to about Iraq's imminent threat of a nuclear war if the country did not act...

At the very least, if you are truly a Democrat, despite your opinion of her votes in the US Senate, and despite your opinion of her accomplishments as Secretary of State, the very least you can do if you truly are a Democrat, is respect the fact that she served our country as a United States Senator, and more importantly, when the President of the United States asked her to serve as Secretary of State, despite her lack of desire for the position, she stepped up during one of the most tumultuous times around the world, visiting over 112 countries and showing the world that America is ready to lead again.

I respect your right to let your opinion be known, as I hope you respect my opinion, even if we disagree...I am 24 years old, Ive been on DU since I was 14 years old, and in my 10 years on this site, I have NEVER experienced the level of negativity & disrespect for Democrats in my 10 years on this site.

When I joined DU, the administrators' had a very strict policy condemning the name calling & the lack of respect for any Democrat on this board. It wasn't to say you must support all Democrats or your not welcome on this website, but back then we could openly & freely disagree with a Democrat or a Democratic Candidate, however when I joined this site, we could disagree with each other without being disagreeable, because when all is said and done, at the end of the day, at the end of the primaries, at the end of battles won and lost by our candidate of choice, we all came together as Democrats....& I sincerely miss those days...

I would like to point out that my post was initially directed at you, but just like me your entitled to your opinion, so this post is for anyone & everyone who remembers and wants to regain civility & party unity to this website...

PEACE OUT
