Hillary Clinton recipient of most donations from the Defense Industry

This is from opensecrets.org, and it doesn’t appear to say anything good about Hillary Clinton’s intentions, in the case that she may owe favors.   It appears Ms. Clinton receives the most money in donations from the defense sector. Here is the data below:
Defense

Clinton, Hillary	$199,926
Dodd, Chris	$172,500
McCain, John	$158,321
Paul, Ron	$143,829
Romney, Mitt	$100,859
Obama, Barack	$99,085
Giuliani, Rudy	$87,200
Thompson, Fred	$48,854
Richardson, Bill	$41,625
Edwards, John	$28,015
Hunter, Duncan	$26,150
Huckabee, Mike	$23,376
Tancredo, Tom	$13,391
Biden, Joe	$7,150
Gilmore, Jim	$4,850
Brownback, Sam	$4,100
Kucinich, Dennis	$3,732
Gravel, Mike	$250
Thompson, Tommy	$250

Given John McCain’s stance on the war in Iraq and the length of time he intends to keep us there, one would have to question why Clinton donations rank higher than McCain’s. I don’t want to join the Hillary “haters”, and yes there sexist views running rampant in the US.  I personally resent any hateful commentary about Clinton that refers to her appearance, her voice, and the list of other feminine characteristics that folks can use for commentary.  I find it childish and irrelevant to our current focus.  Just who will lead our nation the best?  It sure has nothing to do with the way they look, dress, their voice, etc.  I am concerned about the Iraq issue and the fact that the US spends more on defense than all the other nations of the world combined.  It is for this reason that I am concerned about the lobbyist and defense donations.  I am also concerned about Obama.  I don’t like his lack of attention to universal single payer health care, and apparent comfort with nuclear energy rather than investigating other sources of energy that won’t result in tons of nuclear waste that must be disposed in the environment.

In truth, since Dennis Kucinich dropped out of the race, with the exception of Mike Gravel, who records his campaign commercials from the arm chair in his home (due to lack of campaign money), there is little left to choose from.  Perhaps a reasonable alternative will present his/herself as an independent in the upcoming weeks.  But then will the corporate world do to them what they did to Dennis Kucinich?  Probably so.  On the other hand, since Kucinich’s name is still on the ballot, we can vote for Kucinich in protest of corporate meddling and the democrats weakness in addressing censorship, the excesses of the Cheney-Bush administration that go unchecked,  etc.  Sadly, I believe this country will have to get a lot uglier before most folks take a stand and refuse to accept this reality.
