Clinton Outlines Human Rights Policy (ABC News 12/14/09)	Permalink

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory?id=9335021 Clinton, in her speech at Georgetown University, outlined a pragmatic approach toward human rights that would press for democratic principles and development but be flexible in the methods it used to pursue the policy. "This administration, like others before us, will promote, support and defend democracy," she said. "Democracy has proven the best political system for making human rights a reality over the long term." She said the United States would approach major powers like China and Russia with "principled pragmatism," recognizing that cooperation is critical to the global economy and for dealing with security issues like North Korea's nuclear program. In both countries, she said, the United States would engage with the government as well as individuals or groups that are working to advance human rights and democracy. "We support change driven by citizens and their communities," Clinton said. "The project of making human rights a human reality cannot be just a project for governments. It requires cooperation among individuals and organizations." __________________ Nobody puts THIS baby in the corner!

Go Hillary Go. I am glad she is in charge. Course her boss is guilty of some human rights violations himself perhaps she can start with him. Take a look at the hood part of the congressional district he represented in Ill and that proves my point that he is guilty of Human rights abuses. __________________
