Clinton(s) — not so much to offer on civil liberties?

Jeffrey Rosenrightly notes that Hillary would wrongly be too much like Bill in not having a dedication to civil liberties.

Her? OK with criminalizing flag burning.

Him? Started the ball rolling toward what became the Patriot Act after the 1993 Oklahoma City bombing.

Now, she wouldn’t be Shrub, that’s for sure. She would be less committed than Obama, though.

Of course, Greens, and other third parties, from their voting rights being constricted by both Republicans AND Democrats by state-level ballot access laws, are the ones really committed to civil liberties.
