LETS STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE: Early on Hillary named protecting Americans from external threats as one her main campaign visions.

Quoting Hillary: We must respect and empathize w/ Islamics (those who behead children)

Hillary Clinton has said some stupid things but this is simply astonishing: "This is what we call smart power," Clinton said to a small audience at Georgetown. "Using every possible tool and partner to advance peace and security. Leaving no one on the sidelines. Showing respect even for one's enemies. Trying to understand, in so far as psychologically possible, empathize with their perspective and point of view. Helping to define the problems, determine the solutions. That is what we believe in the 21st century will change -- change the prospects for peace."

Sap-happy progressives bought into Hillary/Obama's notion that getting greater cooperation from our allies, and less hostility from our enemies, was just a matter of giving them hugs and kisses. Hillary Clinton arrogantly declared it smart power on Time magazine cover.

As FReeper Harley Lady27 insightfully posted earlier WRT the State Dept's gun-running:

When Putin finds the arms that were sent from Venezuela to Benghazi to Syria to overthrow Assad, Putin should go to the Hague and demand they bring action against the Government of the United States...including every House and Senator and government official that was involved in this...

(And that goes for Obama and Hillary, as well.)
