Recently touting “… my 35 years of fighting for what I believe in…” HRC has drawn attention to an area of her life that has received no attention from her MSM cheerleaders, and begs the question, “What has HRC accomplished in those 35 years?”
So, I googled Hillary Clinton accomplishments. Newsmax had this list:
Hillary has managed to get the following laws and resolutions enacted:
• Establish the Kate Mullany National Historic Site
• Support the goals and ideals of Better Hearing and Speech Month
• Recognize the Ellis Island Medal of Honor
• Name courthouse after Thurgood Marshall
• Name courthouse after James L. Watson
• Name post office after John A. O’Shea
• Designate August 7, 2003, as National Purple Heart Recognition Day
• Support the goals and ideals of National Purple Heart Recognition Day
• Honor the life and legacy of Alexander Hamilton on the bicentennial of his death
• Congratulate the Syracuse University Orange Men’s Lacrosse Team on winning the championship.
• Congratulate the Le Moyne College Dolphins Men’s Lacrosse Team on winning the championship
• Establish the 225th Anniversary of the American Revolution Commemorative Program
• Name post office after Sergeant Riayan A. Tejeda
• Honor Shirley Chisholm for her service to the nation and express condolences on her death
• Honor John J. Downing, Brian Fahey, and Harry Ford, firefighters who lost their lives on duty.Only five of Clinton’s bills could be described “substantive”, say Morris and McGann:
• Extend period of unemployment assistance to victims of 9/11
• Pay for city projects in response to 9/11
• Assist landmine victims in other countries
• Assist family caregivers in accessing affordable respite care
• Designate part of the National Forest System in Puerto Rico as protected in the Wilderness Preservation System.
What has she accomplished in 35 years of fighting? I can’t find much. Here, and here are two websites that purportedly tout HRC’s accomplishments, but other than being a “fighter” or “leader” or “working hard”, there is precious little to crow about. Even committed liberals are having to “cut her some slack.”
“I’d also add that Hillary faces a very tough crowd, as the first serious female presidential candidate, when it comes to national security. People do see her as tough, and they need to continue seeing her that way. At a forum in Iowa several months ago, an older man asked her how he could be confident she’d be able, as a woman, to stand up to “bad guys.” So I’m admittedly cutting her some slack on not being an outspoken antiwar voice.”
One of the great criticisms of her husband’s administration was that it was always in campaign mode, continually looking for the political angle, the next opinion poll, saying and doing whatever seemed to be politically expedient. Conversely, one of the great criticisms of GWB has been his lack of going into campaign mode to defend his policies, leaving it to the alternative media to defend and explain his decisions. Looking at the past accomplishments of HRC in her 35 years since leaving the tutelage of Saul Alinsky, a reasonable person has to wonder, what would a HRC administration look like?
Andrew Walden draws this conclusion: “Hillary’s life work has been to acquire and use Federal Power to polarize Americans and through conflict create the new man. A Hillary Presidency could be the last chance for her aging generation of campus radicals to remake America in their own image.”
