You do realize that the Obama defense budget for 2013 was higher than Bush's military budget at the end of his term. That makes Obama a bigger hawk than Bush.

Granted, Bush had an animalistic cowboy come off. But I'm talking substance here, not style. Onama was suaver than Bush because he was a trained con man.

Now Bill Clinton talked the centrist talk, but he was a real liberal: he balanced the budget by primarily cutting the defense budget. If you are a true liberal, that's how you do it.

Hillary is not Bill and Bill. of course, has known that for years. That might be one of the reasons for his infidelity. Honestly, if I was married to a woman who became a Hawk like Hillary, I'd be having plenty of extra-marital affairs too.

I understand the Court thing. You want Pro-Choice Judges sitting on the Supreme Court. I can't disagree there, but I'm not a one pony trick voter.
