Caught at Three A.M. With the Secretary
How did this WikiLeaks star ever become Madame Secretary?
First she was Miss, then Ms., and eventually Missus. Now the correct honorific might be Myth Hillary Clinton. If honorific is the word I want.
Readers of this journal knew this termagant well even before her terms in the Senate. They did not need Harry Reasoner and Dan Rather to identify this harridan. They recognized her vulgarity, her venality, her pettiness, her pettifoggery, her vindictiveness, her shrillness and such other virtues as she might bring to the fore for special occasions.
This was the woman who as a young lawyer for the Democrat members of the Watergate Committee wrote a brief arguing that Richard Nixon was not entitled to an attorney in an impeachment proceeding. This was the woman tasked with improving the Arkansas education system who drove it down to 49th place among the 50 states. This was the woman who campaigned for Senate using the Presidential airplane and blatantly bought both votes and campaign cash with Presidential pardons.
Whence sprang the myth of the super-competent Wonder Woman who strides confidently through the corridors of power dispensing wisdom and judiciousness in equal parts? It was invented by her own campaign staff, in an ad suggesting that lonely heads of state could find relief by calling her, toll-free, at three o’clock in the morning. She would whisper sweet nothings into their ears and they would emerge from their crises with a new, fresh outlook on life.
She never made it to Pennsylvania Avenue but she benefited from this time spent on Madison Avenue. Like Josephine with Comet or Rosie with Bounty, people believed she could scour and mop up the trouble spots without raising a sweat. This image hypnotized even Republican types whose critiques have locked into the disagree-but-admire mode for quite some time. All I could do was save up pejorative adjectives in an old pickle jar, knowing they would come in handy before very long. For now, she had become apotheosized into an international stateswoman.
To which it is time for us to assert, with the help of Julian Assange: baloney. Adding a D for Democrat after “shrew” does not equal shrewd. The woman is a know-nothing know-it-all; this front she put on is an effrontery. She comes from two states (Illinois, Arkansas) which end in silence but she just keeps getting noisier.
Let us review in brief some of the revelations about Madame Secretary in the recently publicized diplomatic cables she authored. She ordered espionage by her diplomats against high-ranking UN officials, including gathering fingerprints and DNA. She asked diplomatic staff in Argentina how President Fernandez was “managing her nerves and anxiety.” She called (or allowed her people to call) Sarkozy thin-skinned and authoritarian; Merkel risk averse and rarely creative; Berlusconi feckless and vain. The list goes on. When word of this leaked, her response was unequivocal: “This is an attack on America.”
She is right about that last, indisputably so. It attacks America as a place which promotes shallow people because their backers have deep pockets. It attacks America as a place which promotes hollow people who are full only of themselves. It attacks America as a place which promotes on the basis of glitz and hype and spin and façade and veneer and gab and patter and spiel and, ultimately, mythology.
This woman has no business being in high office, whether elected or appointed. She is small and defined by her smallness. The only person who should call her at three o’clock in the morning is the Mayflower man to move her portfolio out of Foggy Bottom. If we made her great, if we made her the face of this country, we have no right to protest when that face is covered in egg.
May I offer a solution? She was named after Sir Edmund Hillary, as she famously lied, later blaming her mother for telling her the lie. She could be our permanent ambassador to Mount Everest. Now that is a much more romantic backdrop for a myth.

I agree, a legend in her own commie mind. What the scary part is, she has loyal followers
David| 12.3.10 @ 11:59AM
Hillary is every bit as bad as the article describes.
The frightening thing, however, is that she is vastly MORE competent, qualified, and suited to high office than the Obommunist. Damning with faint praise? You betcha.
Patrick| 12.4.10 @ 12:25AM
Such bitterness should be made sweeter if she runs against him in the Dem primary. This time he doesn't have the messianic mojo and she's as incompetent as always. If she wins, he will sandbag her out of pettiness. If he wins, she will write a tell-all book for mid-October out of pettiness. Too bad it won't happen.
WGMOW| 12.5.10 @ 5:58PM
I disagree. She will never win against the Obamanation, because the racism industry in the US is more powerful and has deeper pockets than the sexism industry.
megapotamus| 12.6.10 @ 9:09PM
There was a boomlet, I hope brief, of common cause with the PUMA types encouraged at least rhetorically by Sarah Palin. Among other things objectionable Palin seems to often buy into feminist identity politics that, of course, star Hillary. The PUMAs certainly have valid grievances against Team O and perhaps there will be some occassional tactica benefit in that but there is too much gender-based backslapping going on by far. Enemy-of-my-enemyism is playing a bit too deep into the Clinton wheelhouse and in any case, no sane person should start convincing themselves that Hillary is a viable alternative to Obama because she has a better developed sense of self-preservation and a passing aquaintance with reality. No rehab for Hillary no matter what advantage this promises to give over Obama. That is playing with cobras. And never believe in her bleating denials. She is not through with us by a long chalk, not if she has anything to say about it. Nor is Bill so long as his heart beats.
Alan Brooks| 12.3.10 @ 10:34PM
"How did this WikiLeaks star ever become Madame Secretary?"
Because the GOP ran two Bush's, a Dole, and a McCain?
Patrick| 12.4.10 @ 12:22AM
Thanks for ruining dinner. Some of us were eating you know...
Alan Brooks| 12.4.10 @ 12:40AM
You've eating crow since "read my lips, no new taxes"
Would Dole himself have been so incautious?
You think Americans will vote for ANYONE you nominate as a candidate? if you randomly select a guy from a VFW lounge, are we expected to vote for him? Forget about what is going through Kim Il Jong's mind, what is going through through the GOP mind?
It's not that the concern is about the last Bush, it is who the NEXT Bush-type will be-- a legitimate concern.
blackknights1802| 12.4.10 @ 7:46AM
"You think Americans will vote for ANYONE you nominate as a candidate? "
They did; a junior senator from Illinois. An individual with no experience and no achievements in the real world. His greatest attribute is his ability to diddle-bop up to the teleprompter and spew lies to his brain dead followers and guilt-ridden liberals.

"Alan, who should the GOP nominate. Quit complaining and offer names"
Names? no one well-known at this time.
Yet surely a latino woman with a doctorate of jurisprudence- and she will need that doctorate.
Alan Brooks| 12.5.10 @ 5:20PM
Here's the same response I gave George True: since in the long run the 'securing' of the Southern border is more important than fighting jihad, I would guess a latina would be the best choice for president: she could charm her hispanic audience by saying:
"Latins are great, but we don't want it to be too much of a good thing-- otherwise you risk killing the goose that laid the golden egg."
Public relations are the better part of valor.

Dave | 12.4.10 @ 10:14AM
Never forget , grasshoppers, although the mainstream media never reported it ... both St. Hillary and Osama Obama were (and are) loyal deciples of that bastion of anti-Americanism -- Saul Alinsky. But don't take my word for it. Check the quotes from another Alinskyite: Try the fomer governor of Vermont. What's his name again?? (uhh) Oh yeah, Hugo Dean. It's all on the record. You just have to look for it.
Meanwhile looking ahead to 2014 ...
These radical goons are all cut from the same Rainbow quilts. The only difference is that today - the lables inside their suits say Prada ... not Pravda.
As the wise old sensi whispers: "The first sign of ignorance is the appearance of sand in the ears."
Or as the street corner prophet mutters: "You be warned, Bubba."
Sara burke| 12.3.10 @ 6:56AM
If only she would have done that kind of "opposition" research on Obama.
chester arthur| 12.3.10 @ 10:30PM
Hillary wasted her time in 2008 doing opposition research on Mark Warner,now a lackluster senator dodging his Virginia constituents.There were rumors of his having a problem with office employees who didn't appreciate his attentions.No mention of whether it was a male or female situation.When her staff met him with file in hand,he dropped out of the list of possible presidential candidates.She never saw the amateur urkel in chief as a threat until too late.
Patrick| 12.4.10 @ 12:28AM
It wouldn't have helped. 2008 was the year of the true-believer libtard. Obama was a messiah of the world, and the only thing opposition research would reveal are things that libtards actually appreciate.
Colin Foy| 12.5.10 @ 4:09PM
This is the best and most accurate quote I've ever heard about Hillary Clinton. Made shortly after her "Bio" came out.
"Hillary, you may be an even dumber bitch than we had originaly thought."

Please. The next time you are tempted to post a piece that just stinks of misognistic rhetoric, email it to your friends and leave the rest of us alone.
If, on the other hand, you can be critical the MISDEEDS of a public official and keep your comments .... um ... above the waist, I'd like to read them.
You probably think this is cute. It's painful and undignified.
See.
You can do that without one nasty bit that stabs at something other than the deed or intent if you merely work at it a little.
loulou| 12.3.10 @ 10:21AM

Are you one of those people who professes that "all men are created equal" and really means just men?
John II| 12.3.10 @ 9:34PM
The word "profess" should be in the plural form, since the antecedent of the relative pronoun is clearly "people," not "one."
Are you one of those grammar-challenged, half-wit feminists who leap to the defense of the indefensible in the name of political correctitude? Associate Professor Rodham is an objectively bad person, dude. But then I suppose you support the REAL suppression of women by Islam in deference to multiculturalism.
Anyhow, whether or not you're serious, thank you for displaying the western form of stupidity that makes the likes of Rodham possible. I pass on.
Patrick| 12.4.10 @ 12:42AM
I'm not sure whether I should laugh or cry from the above. I should laugh, as it was really good. Even so, I understood the grammatical argument, painfully.
Chalkdust| 12.4.10 @ 7:09AM
I didn't coin the phrase, but I can easily imagine the mindset of the man who did. We men aren't so quick to bestow the title "man" on just anybody, regardless of equipment. Anyhoo, I can feature the man consul bestowing the honorary title "manly" on you...... If you could only learn to keep your mouth shut?
CESC| 12.3.10 @ 3:08PM
Criticism of a politician who happens to be female does not equal misogynism. You have the same flawed logic of those liberals that call Obama critics "racist". You liberals want to play in the big leagues, but you fall back on false accusations as soon as you have to answer to your twisted reasoning. You are unable to respond in the forum of ideas, you are painted into the corner of class, gender, and racial divisionism.
Oh, and beebop, by the way, no one forces you to read the article. Again, your flawed mindset demands the author to "email" the article to friends and to "leave the rest of us alone." No one is intruding on your life, yet you would shut down an individuals right to freedom of speech. You are by definition an intolerant totalitarian. Bye bye comrade.
beebop| 12.3.10 @ 4:43PM
If you had read my comments with greater care, I have no issues of criticism of Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Barack 0bama. But I think we need to keep the conversation civil. And -- bowing to booger -- sexist comments don't advance the discourse. At least not for me.
There were two columns here today that took issue with female politicians -- the title for this one goes so far as to nip at the "naughty" thought of being caught in the middle of the night with a secretary. It's childish, harmful and does nothing to advance the discourse. Its the kind of thing Bill Maher thinks is just oh so precious.
"Flawed logic", "flawed mindset,"twisted reasoning,"intolerant totalitarian." Wow.
Quartermaster| 12.3.10 @ 6:32PM
The article was not sexist, except in your own fevered mind. CESC is correct.
Bob K.| 12.4.10 @ 9:50AM
BeeBop,
Look at it this way. Mr Homnick was merely trying to point out that nobody is perfect. I am still trying to figure out what he really doesn't like about her!
I thought it was great analysis!
Martin Treptow| 12.3.10 @ 6:50PM
beebop,
Please excerpt the passage from Mr. Homnick's article that "stinks of misognistic (sic) rhetoric"?
Oh, wait... Liberals don't deal with reality.
Your messianic President has outed you all. Your gut-string is busted. The pendulum has been swung the furthest to the Left it can swing.

Are you just *channeling* for your husband?
Booger | 12.3.10 @ 7:28AM
From the desk of Secretary of State H. R. Clinton:
To: United States diplomatic staff
Dear U.S. Consulate Employees,
As you are well aware, one of your primary job duties is to collect information about your host country that may be of use to the United States. This information is often of a sensitive nature, and may concern matters of local politics, military policies or economic plans. Please be aware that it is important that you forward all of this information up the chain of command in a discrete and professional manner. This information is used in forming United States policy decisions in a wide range of areas, and as such is vital to our national interests. Please be aware that this is a critically important role you have been called upon to fulfill, and that you have my deepest respect and full support.
That being said, there are some particular areas of concern which have come up that I must require you to keep your eyes and ears open to at all times. It has come to my attention that many foreign leaders are expressing certain reservations about our current President, Barak Obama. I believe it is important that you note and catalog these concerns, and that you expedite their delivery directly to myself.
Specifically, many world leaders may be expressing concern about President Obama's ability to project the strength needed from a U.S. President when dealing with hostile dictatorships such as Iran and North Korea. If you note any such misgivings, especially if it is from a governmental leader willing to go on the record, please immediately notify me of such a development. It is of the utmost importance that I receive this information promptly and directly.
I also understand that many leaders around the world are currently critical of President Obama's handling of the economy. If you come across such an individual, and he or she is willing to go on the record, please make me aware of this immediately. Try to determine whether this is a world leader who might be well received by the American people as well, as I must determine exactly what damage control will be necessary when dealing with such information.
Additionally, it may be that some world leaders are looking for opportunities to try to influence United States elections through infusions of foreign cash. As you engage in information gathering activities, it would be a good idea to find out if such leaders exist, and if so, whether they are considering bankrolling a challenger to President Obama, especially in the Democratic Primary. If you come across such individuals, especially if they are truly in a position to provide substantial funding, it is imperative that you make me aware of it immediately.
Finally, it may be that there are foreign leaders out there, especially in Southeast Asia, who may have damaging biographical background information available about President Obama which they have not yet released. It is absolutely imperative that any such information make its way to me immediately. I assure you, should you provide such information, not only will you not be punished, it will greatly enhance your career. So those of you on the ground in a certain Muslim Southeast Asia country, get digging in a hurry if you want to move up the ladder.
In summation, I need to know if world leaders are willing to publicly complain about our President's ability to handle military and economic problems, if they are willing to bankroll a challenger to him in the next election, and if they have any dirt on him. Obviously this information is of the gravest national security concern, and should be forwarded directly to myself, without being viewed by anyone else. Please remember your proper chain of command. There is no need to bother President Obama himself with these matters, I am quite capable of taking care of them for him.
Keep up the great work!
Sincerely,
United States Secretary of State H. R. Clinton

I also sense that this whole affair a la Soros' cat's paw, Assange, will insure that Hillary never achieves the presidency. I love it.
beebop| 12.3.10 @ 7:57AM
Did you skip right by this definition:
'In Medieval Europe, Termagant was the name given to a god that the Europeans believed Muslims worshipped'
to arrive at the female bashing:
' A quarrelsome, scolding woman; a shrew. adj. Shrewish; scolding. [From Middle English Termagaunt, imaginary Muslim deity '
Why do I feel like these comments are what I might hear in a steam room uttered by a group of self satisified, cigar smoking, smug and confidently superior infidels (def: (literally "one without faith") is a chiefly archaic English noun, meaning one who doubts or rejects the central tenets of a religion other than his own). Except in this case, your "religion" is grounded in some outdated thinking that your sex makes you superior to anyone else.
Watch it.
You may have missed it ... but yes, we finally got the right to vote.

Hi again BeeBop,
please see my post on Nancy Pelosi.
Now, be careful not to become a termagant in your own right.
We all respect women here, unless they are despicable .

Now who is being sexist?

beebop| 12.3.10 @ 8:47AM
Smug
Self-satisfied
Cigar smoking.
Hmmmm. Don't really see the sexism in any of that but yes, I was hoping that one or two infidels might feel chastened.
If your definition of "feminist" is one who believes and has worked for equality based upon individual ability and suitability, then yep, I guess I am.
When the women's movement first took off, I wondered how many fathers had been forced into the market place to do daily battle and whose individual personalities made them less suitable for the work force and a better choice for the force in the lives of their children. I still believe that. The problem is that the "women's movement" never expanded beyond the immediate need to "redress" and embrace a broader reality.
Between this article and the one regarding Pelosi, I have reached the end of my tolerance for sexual role identification insofar as politicians is concerned. We need to be better. We have to be better. If we can't attract more voters to the conservative position in 2012 the incompetence and gridlock will continue and we simply don't have time for this. It may already be too late.
Paul D| 12.3.10 @ 3:32PM
I don't know, but what I saw in your description was the little bald dude from the Monopoly board game sweatin' in a turkish bath. And that's a visual I can't seem to get out of my head - although I'd really like to.
TexasLighthouse| 12.5.10 @ 9:29AM
Beebop,
I'm a 31-year-old female, good-looking, wife of a white male (I realize that's a huge no-no these days), a mother of two toddlers (another no-no...I know I'm supposed to adopt a baby from Ethiopia), and a college philosophy instructor. I have no problem with what was written in this article. Perhaps it's because I have a healthy self-esteem and realize that the author does not criticize femininity, it criticizes one politician who happens to be a female. Tape down the bristles on the back of your neck and have a sense of humor. Life is too short to be so easily offended. On a side note, how many times has it been said that a male politician doesn't have the balls to do his job? Should every male be offended because maleness was mentioned in the critique? I think not.

Stuart Koehl| 12.3.10 @ 2:25PM
On the one hand, you despise those who make jokes at the expense of Hillary Clinton's sex (please note: nouns have gender, plants have gender, but humans and all other mammals have sex). Yet, were it not for her sex (and her husband), it is highly doubtful Hillary would ever have risen to the rank of Junior Senator, let alone Secretary of State. She is thus to women what Barack Obama is to blacks: a token promoted well beyond her qualifications as an offering on the altar of identity politics.
Claypoole| 12.4.10 @ 9:04AM
From Bill Clinton's serial adultery to Barack Obama's giving her the finger during the 2008 campaign, Hillary has spent the better part of her adult life trading humiliation for power. If she had any integrity at all, she would have walked out on both of those men.
SF_Exile| 12.3.10 @ 3:56PM
Oh, yes, we got the right to vote; makes me wonder sometimes if I should give it back.
Hilary scares the living crap out of me. From the moment she and the Boob she married happened on the scene I was scared. In all this time Hilary has done nothing to make me change my mind.
It's interesting - Hilary, Nancy Pelosi and Dianne Feinstein are all powerful women in the halls of American Government. Ms. Feinstein is the only lady amongst them.
Tom in Michigan| 12.4.10 @ 7:16PM
With all due respect to you; I think we've just about had all the political correctness we can stand. I don't find Hillary Clinton repulsive because she is a woman. I find her repulsive because she is an evil parasite on the body politic and, her continuing presence in a position of any authority bodes ill for the nation.
On the other hand, I DO find her repulsive AS a woman.
Tom in Michigan| 12.5.10 @ 5:58PM
Honestly. You use language like, "a group of self satisified, cigar smoking (I don't smoke anything), smug and confidently superior infidels " and "outdated thinking that your sex makes you superior" and dare accuse others of sexism. C'mon.
Oh, wait. You belong to a "victim" group so, by definition (of the proglodytes, that is) you can't be "sexist" any more than Eric Holder can be "racist" by directing the DOJ not to prosecute voter intimidation cases where the victims are "white."
The death of leftist hypocrisy and their tool, political correctness will be the rebirth of the nation.
Sneerwell| 12.6.10 @ 10:46PM
My dear Madame Sneerwell
You lost that right after surrendering to the degenerate, vulgar, marxism that is feminism. You are the Bolsheviks of the Womens' movement. We men sitting in the steam room look to the day when real women will rise up and depose you. Then will they battle too for men, and harpies such as Hillary will be no more.
JimH| 12.3.10 @ 8:34AM
And harridan. Jay had his Roget's handy when he wrote this one. I think the appearance of competance Hillary projects now is just relative to the rest of the administration.
Stormzeye| 12.3.10 @ 7:46AM
Well done Booger. You've captured the selfish regard she has for her own career and the underhanded way she's always gone about things in pursuit of higher office foresaking even the best interests of her own country.

What an accurate and literate summary of Hillary Clinton. Well written. I particularly liked the eighth paragraph which could easily describe both of the two top Democrats of 2008, the same two who will probably vie again in 2012. The best the Democrats can do--quite revealing.
Doctor Right| 12.3.10 @ 8:07AM
Everything said about Madame Hillary in this article is true. She's a vainglorious, petty, venal, vindictive shrew, and utter unqualified for the office of POTUS, and even the office of S-o-S.
That said, I honestly don't think the wikileaks revelations regarding her are all that scandalous.
She asked for intelligence to be gathered on UN officials? GOOD! I'd like to bug ALL the offices in that miserable swamp, and then drive the UN and their anti-American policies into the sea.
She asked about a world leader's mental health? Again, GOOD. If we have reason to believe that someone we need to deal with is mentally unstable, then don't we need to know???
She has negative personal opinions of Sarkozy and Merkel? ......So??? Look, I don't share her opinions, but I'm pretty sure that Ronald Reagan thought some of our NATO-ally Presidents and Prime Ministers were jackasses, too. Big deal. (And as someone who lived in Italy for a year, let me tell you - ALL Italian men are vain, especially the billionaires).
There's a LOT of reasons to dislike Hillary Clinton, and work towards ending her political career, but honestly, these wikileaks "revelations" about her are a drop in the bucket.

If you would like to get rid of the UN, just put out the word, on the QT, of course, that we are going to withdraw from the UN and declare the UN HQ will no longer be recognized as a diplomatic station. Have the NYPD, and other PDs ready to pick up the Diplodinks who have many offenses against them. Then announce to the UN what's going down. UN won't last a day in NY.

I am no Hillary fan. And I recognize that a lot of the items cited about her are true.
At the same time, this is a lot of drama about nothing. It is highly doubtful she wrote ANY of those cables personally. And diplomats are supposed to be collecting information, including information about the mental status of a foreign head of state.
She allegedly did all this? Good, that means that for once she was doing her job.
Jeannie Beck| 12.3.10 @ 8:25AM
This reminds me of the hateful tone taken by the far left on Palin. I'm no Clinton fan, but as far as this administration goes, she is the only adult with a brain and at least some concern for our country.
dc| 12.3.10 @ 9:49AM
Ms. Beck, what are you drinking this morning?
This is the woman who wrote to her future "husband," it's ok that you're banging every two-bit whore in every town you visit, but just remember, "your girls" can never deliver you the political power you crave, but I (Hilary) can. Do you really think she has somehow buried her naked (sorry, it's still breakfast time in some places) ambition in her past and is rising to do battle with the nation's enemies for the good of us all? My God...
Do you not recall all of the lies, cheating, and possibly murders she orchestrated while in the White House? That she was duly indicted but not tried for perjury herself, by the same "Justice" Dept that now blackwashes any conceivable criminal activity that might embarrass the Demon party?
I would despise Hilary just the same if she were a normal, heterosexual male; the fact that she is a vicious, totalitarian, lesbian fraud makes her easier to despise but no more worthy of it.
Anyone who thinks she's not preening as a "statesperson" to try to puff up her presidential credentials is, as I said earlier, drinking some very strong stuff way too early in the morning. She would love to see this country defeated, gutted and destroyed, just as Il Duce Negro would. Both are working towards the same end from slightly (very slightly) different ideological places on the fringe left.

You seem to be quite a charming individual, however you missed my point, which is the tone of the writer. Compared to Obama, Pelosi, etc...Clinton looks good. I didn't say she WAS good.
dc| 12.3.10 @ 2:27PM
Ms. Beck, with all due respect, what you posted was, quoting in relevant part: "she is the only adult with a brain and at least some concern for our country."
My argument is that she does not now and never has had the slightest concern for the country, but only for herself and whatever could further her own totalitarian political ambitions. Billyboy furthered them for a while, and she used him as much as she could to bring about her vision. She failed in some respects (remember Hilarycare?) and succeeded in others (e.g., juicing the Puerto Rican vote in NYC by getting Billyboy to pardon and free a group of unrepentant terrorists). Now she trots around the world on taxpayer dime, aging ungracefully in the process, and undermines at every possible turn the world that President Reagan and our military fighting men worked so hard and shed so much blood to leave us. "Reset" with Russia means turning her flabby, foul ass up in the air and accepting whatever Putin sticks in it, on behalf of a country (the US) she despises and wants to see weakened and destroyed. Just one example.
If there is any practical or ideological difference between her and Pelosi, please provide some examples, as I'm not aware of any. Between her and Il Duce Negro, maybe there's some space, but again, we're parsing some very dark, small fissures of the radical, hate-America-first left here, which is not terribly useful.
Bottom line, she's just as bad, she's just not quite as powerful as either Il Duce or Pelosi (used to be). That doesn't mean she isn't doing her damnedest to put this country in harm's way, and make straight the path for world socialism.
Never forget, all of these vermin consider us subhumans, literally lower than animals, to be ruled, regulated, rationed and ultimately exterminated at their whim. Everything they do moves them closer to that goal. Everything.

The leaks also show the secret war in Yemen approved by Hillary and Obama. In May 1970 the liberals went crazy when they discovered the secret bombing of the HoChiMinh trail in Cambodia. There was rioting,Kent State, etc. And then one of the impeachment articles drafted against Nixon by a young staffer on the comittee, by the name of Hillary Rodham, was about the secret bombing in Cambodia. Does this mean we can get that article, change the name from Nixon to Hillary and Obama?

I think Matthew is referring to Barack keeping his enemy Hillary closer. For me it is a Godfather reference.
Stuart Koehl| 12.3.10 @ 2:36PM
Translation provided by a half-Sicilian:
Obama sees Hillary (and by extension, Bubba and all the Clintonistas) as unreconciled and unreconcilable enemies. He knows that they know revenge is a dish best served cold. Following old Sicilian logic (Chicago was home base to Alphonse Capone, after all), the best way to keep an eye on her is to promote her to right hand man. That way, he knows what she's doing, and she, for her part, will become dependent upon him for her continued success.
Or so the theory goes. More than one mob boss has been whacked by the guy he trusted most. And Obama is no Michael Coreleone, that's for sure ("Hillary, I know it was you. You broke my heart!" ). More like Sunny, truth be told. Or maybe Fredo.
Occam's Tool| 12.3.10 @ 7:26PM
Obama is definitely more like Fredo than Sonny. Sonny was honorable and brave, fighting for the Family and beating the crap out of the man who disrespected his sister. Fredo was weak and set Sonny up to be killed.
John II| 12.3.10 @ 11:37PM
Just passing by, Occie--but I don't recall that it was Fredo who set up Sonny. It was Don Corleone's worthless son-in-law, who, at the instigation of Don Barzini, set up Sonny by staging yet another beating of the hapless Connie to draw Sonny out of the Family compound for the machinegun ambush at the highway toll both.
Michael later takes care of THAT business through the decisive garroting executed by the Family's hitman, the fat Clemenza (the guy who teaches Michael how to cook: "Come here, Michael, and learn something").
Fredo was already in Vegas. But like the Professor, Fredo is dangerously weak, and so Michael arranges Fredo's disposal on a rowboat at Lake Tahoe, in "Godfather II."
And now back to "The Woman in the Window" (1944), a display of Fritz Lang's genius more intensely suspenseful than any of the Godfather flicks. Still, it's too bad Edward G. Robinson (1893-1973) was gone by the time of "Godfather II." He would have made a terrific Hyman Roth.
John II| 12.3.10 @ 11:39PM
I mean, "toll booth." Sorry.
Occam's Tool| 12.5.10 @ 5:25PM
I just remember something Fredo said about being the oldest, and therefore the family should have gone to him. But I'm pretty sure Fredo was implicated in a death or a shooting. His death was deserved.
John II| 12.5.10 @ 9:38PM
That was in "Godfather II." As I recall, Fredo was being manipulated by the Roth people, who staged the machine-gun attack on the Tahoe compound. Roth, from his inconspicuous middleclass bungalow in Florida, was trying to keep the Corleone family out of Havana, and he was getting at Michael partly through the weak Fredo. But I haven't seen the flick in several years, so I'll have to check to make sure.
One thing I remember for sure is the chillingly touching scene of the feckless Fredo (played to perfection by John Cazale) plaintively whining to Michael about the way he'd been shunted aside by the Family all those years. His death was less deserved, I think, than at least faintly tragic: he's what the Greeks called a "soft man"--in his case, treacherously so, despite himself. I think I've known people who are weak in that way.
Carlo, on the other hand (the worthless son-in-law involved in the set-up of Sonny), deserved exactly what he got. It's amazing how relentlessly the natural law plays itself out in the world depicted by that flick.
Cris Worth| 12.3.10 @ 1:49PM
I remember how GOP senators rolled over and played dead over Hillary's confirmation to SecState...just two no votes. What an opportunity to tear her to pieces over her vile past and block her entry into the cabinet as best as they could include a filibuster. But now we have disgraced Hillary up to her usual tricks wreaking havoc over the whole world.

Pat| 12.3.10 @ 5:09PM
And just whoever said Hillary was a diplomat or really knew her foreign policy stuff? I mean we all know how she got her present job - in effect, we promoted some over-the-hill, has been who taught golf swings at the local country club and now we’re disappointed she’s not playing like Tiger Woods? Hillary couldn’t have been elected president – way too much baggage. And Obama was a relative nobody who hadn’t been around Washington long enough for the voters to hate. So, to punish Bush, we elected a former community organizer and, to punish us, the former community organizer gave the nod to Hillary. Hey, it happens and was simply a political tactic designed to heal any rifts among the Democrats when Hillary failed of nomination. Worked, didn’t it?
And now we’re surprised Hillary is channeling Hillary within official communications and policy remarks? The Democrats have an exemplary history when it comes to confusing politics and on the job competence.
FDR, Obama’s role model, went through three different vice-presidents alone. He dumped loyal John Nance Garner – or, in reality, traded him in for New Dealer Henry Wallace – Henry being sort of an ideologically confused wackjob who would appeal only to the left most of today’s left wing Democrats.
Then he backstabbed Wallace during the election of 44’ and secretly agreed to accept Harry Truman based on pressure from certain Movers and Shakers within the Democratic Party, although he personally despised Truman. FDR co-opted Wendell Wilkie, the 1940 Republican presidential candidate, into supporting his own political agenda. And he then rewarded the hard drinking Wilkie by sending him on a foreign goodwill tour as his personal representative where Wilkie distinguished himself by repeatedly “boinking” Madame Chiang-kai-shek, the wife of our war time ally and leader of the non-communist Chinese. Expecting the Democrats to manage foreign policy and guard our national secrets is like letting the French formulate your military strategy or allowing the Saudis to determine your religious freedoms.
DA MONK| 12.3.10 @ 5:42PM
All you nay sayers: Have any of you well knowledged people about Hillary ever met her and discussed her political philosophy? And why all the demeaning remarks about her physique i.e. ankles? What does that have to do with what? Let's stick to point: What don't you like about how she is doing her job? So far none of you have made any REASONED comments pro or con. Thats what you should be discussing. Act mature
Occam's Tool| 12.3.10 @ 7:29PM
Ok, let's leave off discussions of Hillary's ankles. The kids I went with to high school had mom's who went to the same high school either with, or right around, Hillary's time, AT THE SAME HIGH SCHOOL.

I had one regrettable lapse in my eternal "I detest Hillry" mode..I was screeching for her to wallop that prize zin the primaries, and right smack into the so sad, so sorry, so absurd HONDURAS episode, I had high hopes...which of course vanished during the course of her persistant belligerance to a free nation's chosen government in favour of a Chavez stooge...so now I am back to my normal "I hate Hillary" gear, and mam alive I sure diid love your column...

Hillary's SecState nomination was a political favor put forth in exchange for keeping her mouth shut, when it was clear that "The One" was going to win the nomination.
Prior to her losing the nomination, her campaign put forth a press release announcing a "major development" to come soon, which never came to pass.
Think, "documentation."

Madam Secretary would you please figure out how to "fix" something in a way other than the context of veterinary science? Your wide-eyed castration look doesn't turn me on...and your bold bullet-taking peppered statement reading didn't make me feel better. True...confidentiality is required by MOST American administrations...but you lost that luxury by running on "the most transparent administration ever" platform. Now that you are finding yourself having to govern, isn't it odd you do the very things you vilified W for? Those of us who are intelligent, aren't hypnotized by YOUR intellect, in your progressive world, relative to your constituents, you don't have to be THAT intelligent to be the "smartest woman in the room"

Gosh. I wish I'd written this-though I doubt I'd be so kind to Her Thighness.
How did she get to be Secretary of State? Well, that's simple.
The snot-nosed, blue-nosed, East-Coast Democrat establishment which had always hated the Clintons for the white trash they are, saw in Barack Hussein Obama a means to not only rid themselves of the two venal Arkansas bumpkins but also to ensure complete subservience of The Sheeple under a black President whose critics could be completely and forever cowed by that dread epithet, "racist" allowing the proglodyte leftists who have taken over what was once the Democratic Party and turned it into a Marxoid golem serving the monster, George Soros and Gaia only knows what other creatures of the leftist fever swamp to foist upon the incredibly gullible, sound-bite-and “Dancing with the Stars”-addled American people, themselves a mere shadow of their former glory after so 80-years of leftist cultural rot the greatest internal overthrow of a nation since October 1919.
Once the carpet-bagging harpy was supplanted by a complete, yet somehow appealing-to- the-aforementioned-Sheeple mystery man of dubious origins as well as even more dubious “accomplishments”, it only remained to sweep her aside while gaining the support of her flannel-shirt and Birkenstock-clad and gender-confused supporters to ensure victory for The One, as the erstwhile shortest-serving-ever-Junior-Senator-of-Illinois was anointed by his Muslim admirer, Louis the Deranged came to be known by offering her not only a crumb but, a crumb that would indeed expose her to the world as the complete incompetent and fraud that she is, thus derailing any future hopes she might ever have of ruling as a modern Wicked Witch of the Midwest from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Her goat of a husband was more than happy to support (and indeed actively contributed to) her defeat because it basically got her “out of Dodge” most of the time so he could get back to his true avocation, getting his Willy slicked.
Only in American, boy.

La Hillary has changed certain meanings of words. For example, her "politics of meaning" was a new name for marxism; her "I don't recall" said 140 times in her 2-hour testimony to a grand jury is a new world record in lying; her appeal to "village education" is an attack of family and religious tradition. And what happened to her lover Vince Foster? Suicide or execution? She would be the ideal candidate for our future Gulag kommandant.
