What an insult to Condeleeza Rice, a scholar on international matters, to even consider her. What possible qualifications could she have? That she traveled overseas, and really didn’t get shot at?

PUMAs were a myth. Or irrelevant.

Take your pick.

p0s3r on November 13, 2008 at 4:31 PM

You dope it is neither. The MSM still doesn’t want us to have any relevancy, so they ignore the fact there are PUMAs out there. This is what we are doing right now:
http://msplaceddemocrat.wordpress.com/2008/11/13/the-lakota-indian-tribe-needs-help-desperately-in-south-dakota/

We are holding online funding drives as well as donating directly to funds for the tribe in Pine Ridge. What have you done for your country today?

And if that isn’t enough for you check out http://www.WAM08.org. It is a non-partisan grassroots group that phone banked, traveled the country from coast to coast and spent personal money to send out hundreds of post cards. What did you do for the country?

Did you stay home? Did you actually vote? Did you get oout from behind your computer screen do anything other than work?

Did you get past your “judgment” of the Republican ticket and do anything to help McCain and Palin?

I know what I am busy doing … I am giving time to my country, its Native Americans and the underserved like the Sioux living in hovels at Pine Ridge. Ask yourself what have I done for my country today.

Believe me you, helping your country doesn’t mean making inartful comments on a blog.

Hillary Clinton might not be such a bad choice for secretary of state. We survived Madelaine Albright–a real clown. Hillary brings some positive qualities to this job:

(1). Tough as hell–plays hardball well–no quarter.

(2). Works well for money and for herself. An ineffective state department is a benefit for the U.S.S.A.

(3). Will do all she can to emasculate Obama.

(4). Will bring higher level of anxiety to state dinners. I would hate to be the White House food taster!

[...] Allahpundit at Hot Air hopes otherwise — so much so that he has (gasp!) kind words for Bill Richardson and John Kerry: As much as I’d prefer a SoS who helped designate the Revolutionary Guard a terrorist organization and who speculated publicly about possibly having to nuke Iran to a tool who played useful idiot to the mullahs at Davos by badmouthing Bush, why would Obama have an issue with Kerry or Richardson as frontrunners? If she stays in the Senate, she’s bound to end up as a point man on health care anyway, which should be enough to placate the PUMAs ahead of 2012. Naming Richardson, who’s got more experience than she does, would help him lock up Latinos, and naming Kerry would signal that he’s ready to pass “the global test.” Naming Hillary achieves nothing, really. Exit question: Anything to this at all? [...]

He always called her divisive, polarizing, calculating, one of the most secretive politicians in America, monstrous, saying whatever it takes to win, disingenuous, untruthful, dishonest, attempting to deceive the American people, deliberately misleading, literally willing to do anything to win, and he has accused her of playing politics with war.

Lets put that into a little more perspective.

Order of Sucession:
Obama – blah
Biden – What?
Pelosi – Oh S**t
Byrd – Coma
Clinton

Seems to me she is the best of the top 6.

And Gates or Hagel would be behind her.

I don’t think such a choice would bode well for relations between the state and defense departments (as if they were ever that great.) I’m also predicting that Major General Barbara Fast will get one of the intelligence directorships (NSA most probably), which will be… interesting.

She’d be foolish to associate herself that closely with The one’s admin, if, when he fails, she’ll go down too… I think she’ll hold out to be a Supreme…
Job security is better.

Unless she would have the ability to help get him impeached, to move herself up the ladder.
If there is a way back to the White House,, the Clintons, I would think, will find it.
The Clintons are as much a problem for Obama as any Republican is.

My problem is Hillary was a big fan of madeline Allbright and as we can see with how it turned out withKim Jung in Korea and how Bin laden was allowed to roam the middle east without being killed even when he was offered to us gives me major reservations about her. She also voted yes on the war without even reading the report. Although I am glad she voted yes I think if she is a serious candidate for the spot her past performance should be taken into account.

Heard she was a definite “NO!” for Healthcare Czarina.

Tightrope dancer is the Queen. If the U.S.S. Messiah goes down in flames does she really want to be tied to it? I know one thing for sure, the Obamas and gang O’thugs had better watch their backs. No one is talking about the UnCivil, Civil War that might be going on in the DNC. There has to be boat loads of ticked off Clintonistas along with PUMAS that would like to see Obama run out of Washington. Not all Dems are trying to buy free Inauguration tickets to the swearing in ceremony.
