Comments on: Open letter to Hillary Clinton http://foodpluspolitics.com/2008/06/03/open-letter-to-hillary-clinton/ A lot of chatter about food ( plus a little about politics ) Fri, 21 Nov 2008 01:08:02 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: ellaella http://foodpluspolitics.com/2008/06/03/open-letter-to-hillary-clinton/#comment-3161 ellaella Wed, 11 Jun 2008 22:22:55 +0000 http://foodpluspolitics.com/2008/06/03/open-letter-to-hillary-clinton/#comment-3161 Thank you for your comment. I know there are many who share your view of Hillary and many, including <a href="http://newsweek.washingtonpost.com/onfaith/sally_quinn/2008/06/retreat_hillary.html" rel="nofollow">Sally Quinn</a>, who share mine, especially with respect to feminism. I welcome and respect all opinions, although I choose never to characterize others' opinions in any way. I had my say in this post, and I stand by every word. I will add, though, I do not doubt her innate intelligence or the fact that, imo, her first senate campaign was a model for a smart campaign, a model she abandoned this time. I'm glad you've enjoyed some recipes. Most days I care more about food than politics, although I have far, far more first-hand experience with the latter. Thank you for your comment.

I’m glad you’ve enjoyed some recipes. Most days I care more about food than politics, although I have far, far more first-hand experience with the latter.

I've been trying to SOB your political posts, as I enjoy reading and sampling your recipes. The level of venom and anger in this latest spew on Hillary is mind boggling. It's really reached an irrational level. You really have no idea of her accomplishments if you think she owes her success to Bill. I think she's successful in spite of Bill. She refused to be defined as the pitiful, shamed wife. She dusted herself off and carried on. She refused to hide in shame for what was done to her. That is not entitlement, that is guts. To say that we are polar opposites in our assessment of Hillary and Barack Obama is an understatement. I think your ability to reason when it comes to these two is clouded with way too much emotion.
