27. It wasn't just Code Pink that knew better.

As we now know, the "evidence" about WMDs and terrorism in Iraq was a lot of lies. Code Pink and millions of demonstrators all around the world plus the United Nations Inspection team knew it was lies. Hillary didn't. I wonder what the "evidence" was that Hillary based her false beliefs upon. Kucinich didn't believe that evidence. Neither did some other very intelligent truly liberal or progressive leaders in and out of Congress.

Hillary is a shill for the rich, the powerful and the status quo. That is pretty much who and what she is. I used to admire her a lot.

It's like one day you wake up and you notice that something you always liked tastes bitter. Hillary just has not moved along with reality. She tends to agree with whatever will give her the greatest political advantage. And, yes, I think that is a moral flaw.

When was the last time that Hillary really stood up for someone or something that was devastatingly unpopular among her rich and famous friends?
