    In reply to Hillary Clinton Is Kicking Ass, Taking Names
    Everybody getting along seems so impossible on a national scale sometimes. I mean, I can see how Iran feels that they need nuclear weapons to defend themselves. I can see how many nations capable of it would feel that way. But, everybody getting nukes is a really, really bad thing, but I don't know how it's possible to prevent it. On the other hand, and I hope I'm not mangling history too much, but when Japan was no longer allowed to have an army after WWII, wasn't that one of the ways that they were able to develop the technological advances that they were able to advance their economy with? Isn't that some sort of an example? Take that money and energy and research and just say, "Yeah, other countries are going to have more military power than we do, but you know, we can advance in other ways." Actually, that wouldn't be such a bad idea for the US. But then what do you do if somebody decides to come on in? I can see how that's not a gamble many countries would want to take.

    I am no Hilary Clinton so therefore these things boggle me.

    This Crappy Hour had me laughing so hard I nearly cried. No hard hitting discussion on the day's political events should be without at least one porn reference, and I mean that in all seriousness.

    Juxtaposing Secretary Clinton with the Palin person, in terms of what it takes to be an effective servant of the interests of our nation, is comical.

    @SomeAuthorGirl: So true. While Palin is whining about the unfair treatment she got from the media, Clinton is doing her job and doing it extremely well. What she said about Iran was just perfect, truly the words of a gifted states-person.

    @SomeAuthorGirl: When you think she might have been President, you have to wonder if perhaps that wouldn't have been such a good spot for her. Her candor as Secretary of State, and her clear and unequivocal messages to other nations, probably would not have happened in the Oval Office.

    @NefariousNewt: I've considered that. I was a Hillary supporter in the primaries, and while I think she would have made a great C-I-C, I think that her role at State has given her an opportunity to profoundly shine. All in all, it's a goodness!

    I was captivated by Secretary Clinton on Meet The Press yesterday. Her passion for her job and this country shone through every word she said. It was a wonderful thing to watch on a Sunday morning.

    Meanwhile, Condelezza Rice sits in the dark living room of her quiet, suburban Washington, D.C. condo, TV on, lights out, eating pints of Chunky Monkey and lamenting the fact that Hillary Clinton is doing all the ass-kicking she really wanted to do as Secretary of State.

    Granted, I supported Obama during the primary, but that being said - I just feel like Clinton ended up in exactly the right spot. She is totally kicking ass. I love listening to her - she is really damn good at this job.

    This Crappy Hour was a total geek out session for me. First Spencer is busting out the IR theory. Then Megan is giving us foreign policy trivia. It's enough to make me forget that I haven't finished my coffee yet.

    A supporting character in a Coen Brothers screwball comedy may be the most apt description of Sarah Palin that I have ever read.

    Megan, can you run North Korea instead, then? Not so much because you're 7 years older, but because you're not crazy. I'd feel much safer, really.

    Megan, was he a crazy "rapist" or "racist" or both? Cause I didn't find the rapist part on the link or anywhere else.


    The sex on the brain could come from the numerous Dick Cheyney reference. Sad as I am to know it, he is hung like a horse. Which will come in handy if we ever get to string him up by a body part and torture him.

    Norm Coleman has spent a lot of money masturbating to his electoral fantasies in Minnesota courts.


    Yes he has. I am out of amusing anger and am now to the weeping into the blanket phase of the election. Next is the drinking moonshine from a bottle and screaming at the moon from my porch.


    FYI I was going to make a joke about Coleman coming on the faces of Minnesotans with his epic asshattery, but didn't have the heart. Feel free to do what I could not.

    I was listening to Atlanta's NPR yesterday because they had an interview with Senator Chambliss regarding Sotomayor. He called her "THAT LADY"! Not Miss Sotomayor, not Judge Sotomayor, "THAT LADY". My blood is still boiling. I will post a link to the audio as soon as it is posted on www.wabe.org. I really wish I could be in the room when they (Chambliss and Sotomayor) are talking.
