Hillary

What is it with me and Hillary Clinton? I am such the anti-Democrat, yet sometimes I really feel for her.

Take this recent thing in Africa where she got all upset when the translator mistakenly asked her what Bill Clinton thought about something. She was obviously extremely mad at that question. Of course she was! As she said, she is the Secretary of State, not her husband. Now, was it proper to get mad? No. If a man said something similar, would it be splatted all over the news? No. If she were a man, would I call her "Hillary" instead of "Clinton"? No.

Hillary is being silenced by the Obama administration. I feel stupid saying this, but maybe Obama wanted to keep his thumb on her and gave her what should have been a pivot role in his administration.
