    If my life has taught me anything, it's that nothing that would make me ecstatic is politically possible. I refuse to get excited about this rumor.

    Because the way to change power structures clearly isn't to work to spread the balance of power across a population. Silly Hillary; pipe down and listen while Unkie Michael reviews the Swinging Dick Foreign Policy Strategy that has worked so awesomely well in the past. Can't be thinking of women and girls at a time like this!!!11!

    In other news, I really enjoy the pictures where Barry and Hills look to be sharing a private, elitist joke. I imagine that they are cackling about the narrow-minded dumbassery they are surrounded by, and it cheers me.

    @Lymed: see, i read it as saying, "she's being kept at a distance from things like women's rights and only parachutes in when she really needs to be putting sustained personal pressure..." not that it's a smart article regardless.

    She would be a wonderful VP and it's a great opportunity for a future presidency (fingers crossed, - does sacrificial dances to the feminist deities-), but I'd still be sad to see her go as Secretary of State - she's done an unbelievable job.

    I hate it when I get sidetracked by women's issues! It happens all the time. Like when I went to the store last week to buy tampons and my nonexistent boyfriend said, "Oh Sarah, why are you getting sidetracked by women's issues? Who cares that you bleed once a month? Now let's pick up my prescription for Viagra." Thank God I had a man to help me set my priorities straight!

    @sarah.of.a.lesser.god (aka Mrs. BrutallyHonestHobbit): Oh I know! Only the other day I had to go to the bathroom while at work to deal with the less pleasant monthly side effects of being a woman, and one of my male collegues pointed out that he'd been at work four hours longer than me and hadn't needed to go to the bathroom at all, while I'd been twice. If it hadn't been for him, I would have foolishly gone and changed my tampon! Where would we be if we didn't have the men to remind us that TSS is only a problem if we let it be!

    "There is nothing that has been more important to me over the course of my lifetime than advancing the rights of women and girls"

    Holy shit I swear I love her so much I want to drop everything I've got going on right now and go get a job at the state department. She is amazing. I wish she'd become president. Then the feminist revolution might actually get going! Hilary! Hilary! I love you Hilary!

    @Cimorene: Hilary has long been my hero. She has gone through so much $hit in her life in politics and personally and she has come through it stronger and with her head held high. The attacks on her when she was first lady alone were so vicious I can hardly imagine surviving that much less going on to become an even greater voice in national and international policy than before. Just seeing where she is today makes me teary sometimes.

    As for big swinging dicks, well, the right wing has long hinted she has one. So why not Hilary?

    Maybe she doesn't know yet? Maybe she's trying to do her job? Maybe we can concentrate on burning issues at hand, like poverty, hunger, war, terrorism and global warming instead of wasting time speculating on the next presidential campaign?

    His advice for Afghanistan is quite wise: either do what we're doing now, or do something different. Hmmph.

    Right now I feel like one of those people who *scoff* totally loved that band when they first came out and now that their 3rd album blew up and they're all over the place, I feel privileged for having always appreciated their brilliance. Or something. #hillaryclinton
