Personal Opinion in Public Policy

Ok, now I've heard it all. Sen. Clinton now states that personal opinions should not affect public policy

Here's Sen. Clinton's comments: "I disagree with what he said and do not share his (Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Peter Pace's controversial comment) view, plain and simple" and "It is inappropriate to inject such personal views into this public policy matter, especially at a time in which there are young men and women in such grave circumstances in Iraq, in Afghanistan, and around the world"
What a load of crap!!

First, you are ALWAYS going to get personal views injected into public policy ANYTIME you discuss any topic, so now is as good a time as any.

And, by the way, personal opinion will always affect public policy no matter when or where you define it, so this is a load of crap!!!
