If Hillary Clinton is elected President, will she vigorously protect our civil rights ? |
|
Will she move to repeal the Patriot Act ? This is my primary concern about any of our candidates. I have no faith in the R candidates, obviously.
Does anyone have any facts about Ms. Clinton that speak to my question ? This is a sincere question.

2. The facts are, she and Richardson are the only 2 dem candidates who have not committed to fighting |
|
the passage of the FISA bill this week, which would retroactively grant immunity to the telecoms, and the Bush Wh for illegally spying on us for 6 years. She has said she would consider, and think about doing something if elected. Kucinich, Edwards, Dodd, biden,and Obama have all taken very strong stands on this issue.

ACLU Rating: Hillary Clinton has a 72% lifetime rating from the ACLU, and a surprisingly low 33% rating to date for the 2006-2007 legislative session. http://civilliberty.about.com/od/ussenators/p/hillary_clinton.htm

5. I really don't think that many of us would like a HRC Presidency... |
|
Personally I see more of the same with her in the White House. We need big time change and I don't see her being the person to bring that change.
