STOP BY AND BUMP THE FUNDRAISER THREAD
Gee Hillary ..you seem to be handing out that money like it was candy
she has Washington experience as a political activist and member of the Clinton transition team
Schneider is glib, blunt and outspoken
On health care, she supports a transition to a universal health care system to ensure coverage for all Americans but immediate relief for needy senior citizens and veterans. She correctly advocates closing the loophole in patent laws that allows drug companies to charge Americans far more for prescriptions than across the border in Canada or Mexico.
She would freeze the Bush administration tax cuts and use the saved revenue to provide prescription coverage and boost education(HOW?), which is one of her top priorities. She pledges to work toward protecting the integrity of the Social Security trust fund. On homeland security, she worries about the compromise of civil liberties through measures taken to prevent terrorism. On the environment, she advocates action to deal with global warming, including offering tax incentives to promote research into more energy-efficient transportation systems and more conservation among Americans in general.
