The Clinton 'stain' returns...

[Larry Gude (Premo)]

Why are so many oligarchs, royal families, and special-interest groups giving money to the Clinton Foundation? - By Christopher Hitchens - Slate Magazine

Here is a thought experiment that does not take very much thought. Picture, if you will, Hillary Clinton facing a foreign-policy conundrum. With whom will she discuss it first and most intently: with her president or her husband? (I did tell you that this wouldn't be difficult.) Here's another one: Will she be swayed in her foreign-policy decisions by electoral considerations focusing on the year 2012, and, if so, will she be swayed by President Barack Obama's interests or her own?

...

Why is Sen. Clinton, the spouse of the great influence-peddler, being nominated in the first place? In exchange for giving the painful impression that our State Department will be an attractive destination for lobbyists and donors, what exactly are we getting? George Marshall? Dean Acheson? Even Madeleine Albright? No, we are getting a notoriously ambitious woman who made a fool of herself over Bosnia, at the time and during the recent campaign, and who otherwise has no command of foreign affairs except what she's picked up second-hand from an impeached ex-president, a disbarred lawyer, and a renter of the Lincoln Bedroom. If the Senate waves this through, it will have reinforced its recent image as the rubber-stamp chamber of a bankrupt banana republic. Not an especially good start to the brave new era.

Hillary can NOT be a credible Secretary of State. Given her husband and his 'dealings', it is impossible.

So if we're lucky - Hillary gets fired in the first six months. No more Senator Hillary, and possibly the last we'll hear from the Clintons. If she gets canned as SoS, who thinks she'll have the tiniest chance to run in '12?

Oh well - she's going to be, whether we like it or not. We have single-party rule now and if Obama puts up Osama bin Laden for SoS, he will be confirmed.

This is a recent pic of her... looks like she aged 10 years in the past 12 months... She is NOT handling stress very well.
