Remember this?.. Senators Hillary Clinton & Lieberman to Participate with ESRB Ad Blitz
Edited on Thu Apr-24-08 11:36 PM by speedoo
This is in response to the post that dares to say Hillary never fought for important issues! :sarcasm:

But in all seriousness, this was while the Occupation of Iraq is going full bore with more and more people being killed and the situation getting worse and worse. She was either incapable or unwilling to see the irony in opposing video game violence while promoting war and refusing to even vote for a ban on inhumane cluster bombs that are responsible for the maiming of hundreds and thousands of real children that will never even own a Playstation 3.

I post this to show what a disgusting opportunistic political insider she is. If you can't see it, you need glasses.

Hillary Clinton Joins Joe Lieberman To Resurrect the Culture Wars
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jane-hamsher/hillary-clinton-joins-joe_b_76133.html


I guess this must be one for those of us who spent the 90s wanting to throw large objects through the television set as we watched that sanctimonious, finger wagging, judgmental scold Joe Lieberman on the floor of the Senate joining with the Republicans to derail the constitution over Bill Clinton's zipper:

Senators Joe Lieberman (ID-CT), Sam Brownback (R-KS), Evan Bayh (D-IN), and Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) called for a thorough review of the video game ratings process in the wake of "Manhunt 2" receiving a "Mature" rating. In a letter to the Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB), the Senators detailed how the change in rating opened the door to widespread release of the game, which depicts acts of horrific violence.

Well that is just peachy. Do we suppose Hillary sat down and actually played Manhunt 2 on the campaign trail in order to arrive at this conclusion, or did she just take Joe's word for it, much like she did when she voted for the Kyl-Lieberman amendment that others have quite rightly pilloried her for? Because Joe, you'll recall, was a useful idiot for the Bushies when they discovered Iran had no nuclear weapons program and they had to find another reason to bomb them into the stone age -- something they neglected to tell the public about. And despite the fact that Clinton's excuse for voting for the AUMF was that she had "bad information" from the Bush Administration on the Iraq weapons program, she decided to trust them -- and Lieberman -- and amp up the Iran war rhetoric.

One wonders at what point she will stop following Lieberman over the cliff.

1. Remember Loserman's sanctimonious condemnation of clinton
during the Lewinsky hoo-ha?

Yet there she was sucking up to this miserable little opportunist.

And don't forget her flag burning amendment.

She's determined to shit on her supporters and spend her life kissing the asses of those who hate her.

With that judgment she ain't fit to be elected dog catcher of bumfuck arkansas.
