One small example of why I cannot vote for Hillary Clinton if nominated

Clinton, Lieberman propose CDC investigate games

Democratic Senators from New York and Connecticut are asking the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to investigate "impact of electronic media use."
A handful of US senators who are longtime foes of the video game industry took a first step Wednesday toward a future government crackdown.

Democrats Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut, Hillary Clinton of New York, and Dick Durbin of Illinois persuaded a Senate committee to approve a sweeping study of the "impact of electronic media use" to be organized by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or CDC.

Even though the legislation--called the Children and Media Research Advancement Act--does not include restrictions, it appears to be intended as a way to justify them. That's because a string of court decisions have been striking down antigaming laws because of a lack of hard evidence that minors are harmed by violence in video games.

If parents don't like their kids playing games, SHUT OFF THE FUCKING GAME CONSOLE!

To hell with both Liebrman and Clinton.

3. Fine and dandy, don't vote for her if nominated

Not voting for the nominated Dem means there is one less countervailing vote for the Repub nominee. Feel better now?
