Somebody Get A Tape Measure!

Our feisty Secretary of State declared that Iran would never be allowed to have nukes and that their pursuit was futile this morning on Meet the Press.

It would seem that Mrs. Clinton has bigger stones on this subject than our timid Commander in Chief.

It's hard to take this declaration by Mrs. Clinton seriously though. No Secretary of State has ever been as marginalized as she is now. Obama clearly uses other czars and microteams to truly handle his foreign policy issues. So far, Obama has shown no inclination to stop Iran from doing anything, let alone stop making nukes, a stated national priority for the Iranians.

This tempter tantrum is more likely the result of Hillary finally trying to exert some influence over world affairs. It's clear that Obama offered her that job as a way to remove her and her husband from the realm of international affairs. Job well done, I must say. Hillary has been near invisible in her role when I'm sure she thought she would be a major policy maker in the new Administration. Far from that, she spends most of her time apoligizing for American activities around the globe and getting lectured by the Indians and Chinese about how stupid global warming and CO2 emissions are. Rightfully so I might add.

I hope Hillary's supporters got a good taste of her this morning, I'm sure tomorrow she's off to Basque to apologize for the weather and Americans lack of interest in Jai Alai. With grace and dignity, no doubt.

  1. Many of the things are new president gets away with are astounding to me to be sure , But nothing is more impressive to me than Obama's complete and total eradication of his most hated rival . First they go back and forth beligerantly for the nomination only to see hillary loose out in the end . ( shocking ) Then in a brillant move Obama decides against simply ignoring his vanquished foe and instead drags her into the fold and banishes her into insignificance . Geneous .
