Calling a Spade a Spade

As a US citizen, I feel sorry for her and am surprised that a person of her stature didn't understand that there is no real freedom of speech in our beloved homeland as envisaged by our forefathers and foremothers and as written in our famous constitution.
Furthermore, she should have been smart enough to know that this country is in fact ruled by some very powerful interest groups and saying anything against them would leave one where she stands today.

In conclusion, I still admire her straight forwardness, fortitude, courage, conviction and the will to tell the truth. If there would have been few dozens of more people like her, most of our problems might be solved.
