Swing Issues? Hillary Comes Out Swinging

The end of the gag rule worldwide on abortions and the actual mention of human trafficking and other abominations (except when used to bolster the need to go to war). Rather interesting kickoff to her tenure. Issues that affect half the world's population are no longer peripheral. Economic justice and tackling violence against women - things could get quite interesting.

In related news, Congonese rebel leader Laurent Nkunda was arrested yesterday. While it's hard to say who's most to blame for atrocities in the Congo, hopefully this will be a turning point to kill off the horrid civil war that as usual inordinantly affects women civilians.

Disclaimer: I gave another $100 to her 5 days ago to retire her debt. I already feel I got my money's worth.

Would you like to swing on a star, carry moonbeams home in a jar....?
