(32,324 posts)Orgasmic over the 33 billions of dollars that our Congress committed to the war in Afghanistan. She just gushed and gushed over how that would help the war effort there. Meanwhile the people inside the USA were being foreclosed, pink slipped, and told to keep a stiff upper lip.
It's time for a BIG HUGE change away from the DLC candidates, away from the "Always enough for wars, never enough for people, schools, fire districts, etc" style of thinking.
It is also something to ponder that it was her husband who signed onto the Banking Reform and Modernization Act. If he had vetoed that act until the Grahams removed their "kill" off of Glass Steagal, we might never have gone through the economic collapse of 2008. But he signed on.
Coincidentally (or not so coincidentally) her husband then went on to garner some $ 100K per speech in front of a Corporate podium. Goo d money if you can make it; especially if you can sleep at night knowing what you signed onto killed off the middle class of this nation.
