In matters of foreign policy, it has been proved time and again, the Clintons are devoted to no interest other than their own. A president absolutely has to know of his chief foreign-policy executive that he or she has no other agenda than the one he has set. Who can say with a straight face that this is true of a woman whose personal ambition is without limit; whose second loyalty is to an impeached and disbarred and discredited former president; and who is ready at any moment, and on government time, to take a wheedling call from either of her bulbous brothers? This is also the unscrupulous female who until recently was willing to play the race card on President-elect Obama and (in spite of her own complete want of any foreign-policy qualifications) to ridicule him for lacking what she only knew about by way of sordid backstairs dealing. What may look like wound-healing and magnanimity to some looks like foolhardiness and masochism to me.
It is hard to understand how Obama could really do this.

What I liked about Dick Morris’ piece was the juxtaposition of “Mikva” and “cold water.”
I’m sure he had no idea.

I’m honestly surprised that Hillary Clinton would accept the position. I had expected her to stay in the Senate and possibly use her seat as a springboard for a 2012 or 2016 campaign.
