I see that Clinton's nomination was approved 48-2. That's
interesting.

48-2

I guess I'll never understand politics and politicians.

How is one who has demonstrated (and basically acknowledged) that
they
make up stories and repeatedly lie to the media and voters, then,
when
caught, arrogantly shrug it off, get appointed to important positions
like
Secretary of State?

And to top it off, she's considered to be an outstanding, world class
leader by many.
No wonder this country is going down the tubes. Honesty and integrity
are
no longer qualification requirements for much of anything.

Unreal.

And yet, she's respected by congress, and according to what I've read,
has a
good relationship with the Pentagon, which could be a good thing
considering
what we're involved with lately.- Hide quoted text -

Yeah, I wonder how many who "respect" her also had the privelage of
having her scour their FBI records for a couple of years last time she
was in the Oval Office... You don't really think those 2500 or so
carefully picked folders sat quietly on the floor of her office for
two years do you?

===================

Tell me why she was approved so easily by congress yesterday.


Oh, come on. Congress is on a roll. Very few are going to stick their
neck out at the moment.

We shall see. I suspect "Yes sir" won't be big in her discussions with
Obama, which was the situation with Rice & Bush. I like that. Bush ran a
monolithic show, according to insiders. That's not good, although it's not
surprising for certain types of people.


My comments are not anti-Obama. I sincerely wish him to succeed. But, in
order to avoid mistakes of the past, I think it's important to hold people
to their promises and their proclamations of principles. To start off a
new administration by glossing over some of the questions related to key
appointees is taking the first baby step towards an acceptance and tolerance
of much more. We should have learned our lessons from the past
administration and insist that the new one doesn't fall off the track.
