27. I agree with you completely. Hillary never took a principled stand in her life. |

Not without first checking which way the political winds were blowing, that is.
Anyone who minimizes how difficult it was to stand against the insane rush to war, whether voting in the Senate or House or not, is either engaging in selective amnesia or is intellectually disengenuous. It took a lot of courage for Al Gore, for example, to publicly denounce the rush to war. Likewise, it took courage for Barack to do so as well. There were courageous ones in the House and Senate who voted no. Any public denouncement of the war took courage.
Hillary had no courage, she had no "balls". She did what was politically expedient, and she gambled wrong. She is one of many whom I will never forgive for this debacle we call the Iraq war.
