25. Did I say it banned flag burning?
uh, no...however, I do have a problem with legislation which equates flag burning with cross burning and says, basically, it's an violent act of intimdation. She sounds like a freakin' GOP stooge with this nonsense.

You seem overly concerned that other prominent Dems aren't getting bashed as much as Hillary for similar views. I'll grant you that it probably stems from a anti-Hillary bias in some measure (on this board and elsewhere). However, you must also acknowledge that we have the previous experience of her husband and his stab at "triangulation" with her fervent support. I too used to be an unabashed Clinton supporter with blinders on....ends justify the means, a swing toward the center is better than a swing to the right, etc...but what truly did that get us? I still admire President Clinton, but once bitten, twice shy, you might say.

Hillary has a long way to go to regain my support for an '08 run.
