Hillary: ‘Government Cannot and Should Not Control Any Individual's Life’ By Pete Winn May 16, 2012
(CNSNews.com) - Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, told an assemblage of human rights and “civil society” activists gathered at the State Department Wednesday that “government cannot and should not” control the lives of individuals.
“(T)o make the case for civil society is really quite simple because government cannot and should not control any individual’s life – tell you what to do, what not to do,” Clinton said, taking part in a “Global Dialogue of Civil Society.”
Clinton said that any “sustainable society” must have three “legs” to stand on: an accountable government, a free-market economy, and civil society.
“The economy has to be in the hands of those who are the entrepreneurs and creative innovators,” she said. “But it is in civil society where we live our lives. That’s where our families are formed; that’s where our faith is practiced. That’s where we become who we are, through voluntary activities, through standing up for our common humanity. And so, as we see the explosion of civil society groups around the world, we want to support you.”
Civil Society is a buzzword for U.S. efforts to bring “social change” and “democracy” to countries of the world by working with “civil society activists” around the world.
Clinton drew on her own experience as a social activist to illustrate what the U.S. supports.
“I started my career working in civil society,” she said.

Nope, definitely not satire, Mark Stein could not come close to writing anything this twisted. Even Swift himself couldn’t approach it.
I am not sure exactly who would give the nod but if Hillary has gotten the nod to run then Obozo WILL step aside. He is only a shell, a puppet, a front man, in him is no real power, only the power delegated to him by those who pull the strings. He couldn’t run a produce stand on his own. He would starve in the midst of plenty if left to his own devices.
Obama’s stepping down and Hilary is running? Is she channeling Billy?
She sounds so “moderate” and “reasonable.”
She went on to say, "But, then, there are LOTS of things government cannot and should not do. KnowwhatImean? Huh? Ya feel me? Word."
Start by an affirmative statement that reaffirms the 2nd Amendment-protected right to keep and bear arms (not just firearms, but ARMS) without restriction by the federal government and I might begin to take her seriously. Proposing the repeal of the 1934 NFA and the 1968 GCA in their entirety, to be replaced by NOTHING, and I'll definitely take her seriously. Until then, she's just Cankles Klintoon, mastermind of the Klintoon machine for taking over the US and turning it into a socialistic dictatorship.
Her comments now show her belief in the short memories of the American people. I'm beginning to wonder just why the Clinton's are getting of the reservation, so to speak. First Bill comes out and blasts Obama's class warfare by taxes, and now this. Something is afoot.
