3. I wish someone would point that out to the LA Times and others...
http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/opinion/la-ed-clinton28-2008nov28,0,1298280.story

In selecting his erstwhile opponent, Hillary Rodham Clinton, to be secretary of State, Barack Obama has gone boldly where no recent president has gone before. Unlike the lawyers, academics and generals who have dominated the office since World War II, Clinton combines substance and essential qualities for the job with celebrity and a political constituency.

4. bill clinton is writing for the latimes?
lets disect

substance? ok ill let that one go she is full of something so i will give her substance

essential qualities? too vague to comment on

celebrity? yeah she is a celebrity but so is vanna white

politcal consituency? all evidence here on DU shows thats true but what need does a SUBORDINATE have for one? that is a negative i think in that it empowers herself to do that which has proven most dangerous...think for herself

all in all i think richardson is a better choice
with real REAL experience

5. Richardson is exceedingly well suited to this appointment...
But he doesn't have the sweet cream for spreading on the toast of America...

6. i sw it
the same person made the same comment in several threads
somehow believes obama will just be overwhelmed by the job and hand her the power

it just struck me that this is what manson believed too but on a larger scale
that the black man could be incited into taking over the country but would then come shaking his po'lil nappy haid when it became overwhelming to him and turn power over to manson
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helter_Skelter_(Manson_scenario)

and no hillary fan club i am not making a comparison between your heroine and manson

7. It was a different member, though,
Edited on Sat Nov-29-08 12:37 AM by NYC_SKP
who yesterday said that since someone had supposedly met with Condi about India, she was effectively acting SOS and therefore Head of State.....

and was serious about it, i think... In fact (on edit) yours was the first reply, and spot-on at that!

9. LA Times was purchased by billionaire Sam Zell in 2007:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Zell

The paper endorsed Obama but it's also been publishing a lot of neocon-friendly propaganda, like this editorial.

10. funny how about all they can say for her is that she's smart, savvy, hard working,
etc etc. So what? She's also sneaky, cranky, opportunistic and cowardly. Whadda load of crap this media corronation has been.
