Thanks or the comments. Sounds like vintage Hillary...

Yeah, this is believable. The woman who "loathed" the military while living in the White House.
The Bill Bennet proposes is BS. Hillary knows that. What we need is a real flag amendment.
This shows how clueless Hillary is.
Hillary is proposing a law that the courts already ruled unconstitutional.
The only way to change the law is for a constitutional amendment.
With Menendez now replacing Corzine their 66 senators on board for the amendment. One less than the 67 that is needed.
Hillary's vote will keep flag burning alive.
Their are 34 votes against banning flag burning in the senate with Hillary being one of them.
Hillary is triangulating again. The American Legion came out blasting her calling her on her triangulations games.
Hillary is backstabbing the American Legion's position with her triangulation game.
Hillary's proposal is nothing more than complete bs. The courts have already ruled her law unconstitutional. The only way to change it is through a constitutional law.
Either be for it or against it. But Hillary always has to have it both ways. She gets to vote to her base while appearing to triangulate.
Like your pseudonym. As for Hillary, she's a coniving witch, and always will be.
Hillary is on the left of this issue.
This is Hillary's triangulation game at work at its finest.
Only Hillary can take the left position and backstab the American Legion with a law that has already been struck down and be praised for taking the conservative position.
The only way to ban flag burning is through a constititional amendment and Hillary is against that. Flag Burning is one vote short in the senate. The closest the american legion will ever come. Their are 66 votes for the constititional amendment one vote short of two thirds needed in the senate. The house has already passed it by two thirds. All 50 states have said they would ratify it.
Their are 34 senators against the constitutional amendment. Their are 13 democrats even for it including salazar who is co-sponsoring it. Even left wing menendez is for it.
The veterans groups want the constitutional amendment. Hillary is against the veterans groups position. Hillary is trying to please her moonbat base at the same time as appearing to be for the ban of flag burning.
Hillary singlehandely with her vote is going to keep flag burning legal. If she was for the constititional amendment their would be 67 votes and it would be ratified by the states.
Instead Hillary is going into major triangulation mode by voting with her base to vote against the constitutional amendment then proposing a law that has already been rejected by the courts.
Hillary is combining her incompetence with her triangulation ways here.
The funny part is that the MSM is so clueless they are playing right along with her.
She wants to protect the Democrat flag?
