As a woman myself, who has worked for years, developed my own career path and established my reputation, while raising a child and sustaining a relationship with my spouse, I cannot imagine engaging in the kind of lies and mischaracterizations she has engaged in.  This isn't the kind of "fighting" I consider appropriate, strong, or even healthy for anyone. In fact it is difficult to believe anything she says now, due to the lies, and the staginess of it all.

The most recent lies were so egregious as to defy any explanation, and her dismissal of concerns and the odd arrogance with which she did so seems character disordered.  

To exaggerate and lie about being "under fire" while 4000 military personnel have actually faced mortal threat and died; to lie about events when over 30,000 soldiers have lost limbs, brain function, psychological health, and they and their families have lost their dreams, is chillingly lacking in emotional health and moral functioning.

It is consistent with the lack of depth that caused her to ignore and dismiss a significant report prior to committing her "with conviction" support for the invasion of Iraq.  For her, it certainly appears that the consequences of her actions to others are less important than the outcome to her personal ambition.  That is perhaps celebrity politics, but it is NOT public service or any genuine leadership.

I hope other Hillary supporters will exercise some critical thinking . . . I have heard quite a few of my staunch Hillary supporter friends beginning to ask themselves if this behavior is really "just politics".
Why should we accept behavior from a person who is applying for the biggest job in our nation, that the rest of us would be fired for, or would shudder to enact ourselves?  She is not competent for the job, and she doesn't seem like a healthy woman.
