HITLERY CLINTON “HIGHLY QUALIFIED? NO, I DON’T THINK SO!!!


John Kerry-Heinz our current Secretary of State and a man who, some would argue, is even more of a disaster at the job than his predecessor was, recently praised that very same predecessor, Hitlery Clinton, and the "terrific job" that she did in repairing global ties while she was America's top diplomat.  The way that this boob described it, was to say that she "did a terrific job of rebuilding alliances that had been shredded over the course of the prior years."  Kerry-Heinz made these idiot remarks to none other than another close pal of Hitlery’s, that wannabe journalist George ‘Stephy’ Stephanopoulos, while appearing ABC's "This Week".  As they came early in the day, I’m guessing his remarks were intended to be some sort of prelude to the fact that Hitlery was expected to, and did, announce later the same day, that she would be running for the Democrat nomination in the 2016 White House race.

And in what I’m quite confident was something that provided many Americans with what was a collective sigh of relief was that Kerry-Heinz stressed that as the nation's top diplomat he was out of politics, and while having no intension of running himself, also said that it was not appropriate for him to endorse any candidates this early in the contest.  But he did call Hitlery "a good friend," and told NBC's "Meet the Press" that "she's highly qualified, and I'm confident we'll wage no matter what, with or without a primary, a formidable campaign."  But I guess I’d be a little curious to know exactly what his frame of reference might be when describing Hitlery as being someone who is “highly qualified” for the job that she is now seeking.  Because he must use a very different set of criteria than I customarily use when researching the job performance of a candidate seeking my vote for president.  

Now in what I’m sure are must be very different set of criteria from the one used by John Kerry-Heinz, here are but a few personal favorites of mine that I used in determining Hitlery’s effectiveness as secretary of state:

1. She insisted we side with Hugo Chavez’s stooge in Honduras, creating a rift in our relationship and putting us at odds with the democratic forces in that country, including the church and middle class. She was forced to retreat.

2. She touted a Russian “reset.” It was such a colossal failure that it did not survive her successor’s first week in office. Russia’s human rights violations have multiplied.

3.  She couldn’t manage to figure a way to reach agreement with Iraq on a status-of-forces deal. Iraq, mainstream media now tell us, is awash with sectarian violence. Secretary of State John Kerry-Heinz had to plead with its prime minister to stop allowing Iranian support for the Syrian government of Bashar al-Assad.

4. Speaking of which, Hitlery assured us for months that Assad was a “reformer.” She dragged her feet and then was rebuffed three times by the un-reset Russians at the United Nations. She delayed in reaching out to the Syrian rebels and in providing aid. She left a human catastrophe of 70,000 dead Syrians and millions of refugees streaming into Syria’s neighbors.

5.  Also among the dead in the Middle East, of course, was Ambassador Chris Stevens, whose pleas for more security, Hitlery says, never reached her desk. And whose responsibility was it to set up a system in which critical cables reached her desk? She also missed the warning signs of revived al-Qaeda activity in North Africa. And then there is her classic “What difference does it make?!” wail. Well, for one thing, it makes a difference in evaluating how competent and honest she was.

6.  She dispatched George Mitchell as her special envoy for the Middle East, who promptly became persona non grata with both Israelis and Palestinians. Her shrieking about settlements only alienated the administration from both sides. (This approach was renounced by the president in his recent Mideast trip.) She ambushed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on the eve of his trip to the White House to tell him, that oh yes, the president would be publicly announcing that U.S. policy was to begin negotiations at “1967 borders” with land swaps.

7. The administration was largely mute during Iran’s Green Revolution in June 2009, a missed opportunity of enormous consequences, both in humanitarian and strategic terms.

8.  Her reaction to the Egyptian revolution, and indeed to the entire Arab Spring, was incoherent and meek. She never managed in four years in office to come up with a framework for dealing with revolutions in the Middle East or for the repressive regimes that clung to power.

9. She did not restore our “standing in the world,” as she vowed to do. In the Middle East, in particular, America’s image is worse than when Obama took office.

10. Early in her term she sent a terrible message by informing the Chinese that human rights shouldn’t be allowed to get in the way of relations between the countries. Unsurprisingly, China’s human right atrocities multiplied.

Any ‘fair’ assessment of Hitlery’s tenure in office would have to conclude that she was among the weakest and least successful secretaries of state in recent history.  It is only by virtue of the Clinton PR machine and an ignorant, compliant state-controlled media that she is the recipient of a never-ending rock-star treatment.  Kerry-Heinz also brought up Hitlery’s email saga, reiterating that the State Department was currently sifting through hundreds of emails turned over by Hitlery which she had sent during her four years as secretary of state.  Of course he neglected to mention the only emails available for “sifting” are the ones that Hiterly, herself, provided.  And Kerry-Heinz told CBS’s “Face The Nation”, "We will release all the emails that (are) appropriate, based on classification," adding that it was important to ensure no classified information was "inadvertently" released.

Now if I may, I’d like to touch on Hitlery’s email ‘issue’ myself.  Because for John Kerry-Heinz to make the claim that there is actually some level of concern that there is classified information that might “inadvertently” released is more than simply idiotic.  Let’s be real here, what classified information there might have once been in any of these emails was long ago wiped slick from Hitlery’s own personal server.  So I’m not sure who it is the old John Kerry-Heinz thinks he might be fooling, other than the made diehard supporters of hers, but the rest of us are buying none of it.  Let’s face, while on paper Hitlery may appear to be a formidable candidate, the ‘real’ Hitlery is really anything but.  I mean talk about a fraudulent resume.  This woman has been an unmitigated disaster at absolutely everything she has done, and anyone who claims to think she’d make a good president is a liar, a Democrat, or both!
