"I get very passionate about what I think is right."-Hillary Rodham Clinton

Let me be clear..

I just wanted to pull this out of my Wednesday post over at Sky Dancing cause I think it is important…

 

What is interesting about these opinions, and actually all the angry speak from the Left, it seems the Koo-laid has finally run its course…like a virus. Only instead of this being one of those annoying stomach things that last for 24 hours, this particular Obama DINO viral diarrhea has been going on for over 2 years. This has me thinking forward. Now, I will be the first one to stand up and say that I am disappointed about Hillary Clinton getting out of public service. However, I will not dwell on this recent announcement from Hillary. I want to move forward, enough of the complaining. As Hillary supporters, we all were well aware of the One’s deficiencies. So lets put this behind us, and use the collective anger as inspiration…or at least a real firm kick in the ass.

It is time for us to seriously discuss a movement towards finding a challenger to Obama in 2012. There is a rumbling going on over at Cannonfire. Perhaps this New Deal can bring not only those 18 million voters who knew what we were in for with the big O…maybe it can bring all liberals together and embrace our historic past…and finally get a real Democrat in the White House.

I want to put this challenge out to all of our readers, don’t just voice your concerns, act on them. We really need to concentrate on this movement and keep the momentum going. I am willing and able to move on from 2008. I am going to get organized…and to hell with disagreements that broke up the party,  my Democratic Party. I want my party to focus on its core values again.

Go ahead…make your move!

This is my attempt to work through my thoughts and ideals…so if you get offended or do not agree with me, I am sorry...that's your opinion and I am glad that you have it! This undertaking is my own. I write this blog for me alone, and it's not meant to persuade anyone. Just because I link it, does not mean I completely agree with it…It just means I read these articles and form my own opinions. This blog is my way of giving myself a proper flogging about the head and shoulders. It is a form of self-torture that I must work out.

"I get very passionate about what I think is right."-Hillary Rodham Clinton

"When you stumble, keep faith. And when you're knocked down, get right back up and never listen to anyone who says you can't or shouldn't go on." -Hillary Rodham Clinton

"There is a special place in hell for women who don't help other women." - Madeleine Albright

Hillary Rodham Clinton

“I supported Hillary because she was the best candidate, because she was a woman, and because I am a woman. Women’s rights, women’s voices, women’s representation, women’s causes, and the fact that she was a smart populist woman instead of another empty suit — yes, absolutely, all reasons I supported Hillary Clinton.” -Wonk the Vote

Hillary’s Quotes

"We are here to advance the cause of women and to advance the cause of democracy and to make it absolutely clear that the two are inseparable. There cannot be true democracy unless women's voices are heard. There cannot be true democracy unless women are given the opportunity to take responsibility for their own lives."

"Take criticism seriously, but not personally. If there is truth or merit in the criticism, try to learn from it. Otherwise, let it roll right off you."

"The challenge is to practice politics as the art of making what appears to be impossible, possible."

"What we have to do... is to find a way to celebrate our diversity and debate our differences without fracturing our communities."

"We need to understand that there is no formula for how women should lead their lives. That is why we must respect the choices that each woman makes for herself and her family. Every woman deserves the chance to realize her God-given potential."

"It is a violation of human rights when babies are denied food, or drowned, or suffocated, or their spines broken, simply because they are born girls.

It is a violation of human rights when women and girls are sold into the slavery of prostitution.

It is a violation of human rights when women are doused with gasoline, set on fire and burned to death because their marriage dowries are deemed too small.

It is a violation of human rights when individual women are raped in their own communities and when thousands of women are subjected to rape as a tactic or prize of war.

It is a violation of human rights when a leading cause of death worldwide among women ages 14 to 44 is the violence they are subjected to in their own homes.

It is a violation of human rights when young girls are brutalized by the painful and degrading practice of genital mutilation.

It is a violation of human rights when women are denied the right to plan their own families, and that includes being forced to have abortions or being sterilized against their will.

If there is one message that echoes forth from this conference, it is that human rights are women's rights - and women's rights are human rights. Let us not forget that among those rights are the right to speak freely - and the right to be heard." (from 'Women's Rights Are Human Rights' Speech Beijing, China: 5 September 1995)
