(62,325 posts)is 'shit' as you call it. And it is turning people away from her.
When I met her I found her to be charming, humble, I had a chance to thank her for some of the things she and her husband had done. She was accessible, she was at the end of her term as First Lady so could have kept a distance from people she did not know, but she didn't.
I was told later she remembered my comment to her over all those she had heard that day. I meant it. I supported the actions her husband took to try to bring peace to NI.
But when she voted for the Iraq War, I was shocked. Especially because I had so much faith in her.
Then her support for neocon wars all over the ME. IF she was my mother, I would have been as opposed to those policies.
Many people on this forum went to bat for her for years when she was under attack by the vile Right wing. Many of us were threatened with death for standing up for her.
I still have that photo, and treasure it. But I am thoroughly disappointed in her war mongering and in her Wall St connections.
Sick to death of the low level of discourse that has pervaded this forum over the past few years. It used to be a place where actual intelligent discussion took place. No wonder so many of the best minds here have gone.
