Reply #80: "Courage?"

[Zavulon]

To me, real courage is admitting you screwed up. John Edwards did that. Hillary didn't and never will.

Here's how "courageous" Hillary is: Just AFTER Eliot Spitzer scrapped the plan to give driver's licenses to illegals, she came out against the idea. (http://www.breitbart.com/print.php?id=D8STMI381&show_article=1&catnum=0) Wow, what a set of stones she has. :sarcasm:

Your last paragraph makes no sense to me, despite your repeated references to "sense" and "common sense." First no other candidate can get their agendas pushed through Congress, but then you go on to say that the only way to make real change is small steps. If that's the case, how would Hillary get her agenda pushed through Congress, especially her health care ideas? How does your paragraph demonstrate that Hillary would be better than, say, Obaama?

At any rate, if you truly think "all of her answers have been appropriate and showed reason and common sense," that's probably as far as we can go in a rational conversation.

Lastly, as an aside, I don't want universal health care. Increasing help to the poor would be great, but government-run health care would be a disaster. The government can't even take care of active-duty soldiers (let alone veterans), even though the number of active-duty soldiers is established by Congress and well-known. If the government can't handle that properly (not to mention the problems with Medicare and Medicaid), why would anyone with the common sense you repeatedly refer to want the government to run the show for the entire country?
