LA Times: Hillary Should Eschew Presidency For Bill To Lead UN
Captain's Quarters Blog ^ | 5/28/2006 | Captain Ed

Posted on 05/28/2006 3:16:27 PM PDT by Jameison

In one of the most bizarre editorials seen recently from a major newspaper, the Los Angeles Times' editorial board requests that Hillary Clinton declare an end to her presidential aspirations -- so that Bill Clinton can take over the United Nations when Kofi Annan leaves. Telling readers that the world needs Bill more than the US needs Hillary, the editors urge the UN to consider Bill the man to lead a rapprochement with Washington and the West:

The U.N.'s reputation has been tattered by peacekeeper sex scandals, the Iraq oil-for-food fiasco and other leadership failures. Nearly everybody agrees that reforms are desperately needed, but no one has emerged who can unite the competing factions and bring about real change. The United States — the most potent force for spreading freedom and democracy around the world — is thoroughly disillusioned with the United Nations. Americans are largely disengaged with the organization's actions. Bill Clinton at the helm would change that overnight.

Belinda, Bill's new Canadian playmate, may change all these dynamics.

Since most people already think Clinton is a big "organ," I guess he'd be perfect for the job.

The Secretariat is an organ that has no restrictions on it.

An unrestricted organ. BJ Clinton. Could be a fit.

I was under the impression that the next Sec. Gen. could not be from the U.S.?

You put it that way on purpose, didn't you..just so we could all bite our lips and try very hard not to say it...;)

What am I missing, what is to stop Bill from heading the UN with Hillary in the White House? It would be absolutely devasting but couldn't it happen?

I actually believe that's the plan, and has been for a while now.

Hillary can't win the Presidency. It's not even an issue.

"I once read a post that said Willard could not get this job because he had been the President of the United States. Anyone know if that information is correct?"

I'd think he won't be allowed as he's technically an American and a non-muslim.

I feel sorry for her. It must be hard for her to get a real date. Imagine being the guy taking her home to introduce to your mom.

Where is NOW and the feminazi's on this issue? She was taken advantage of by her boss. Seems a classic harrassment case to me.

It's the perfect scenario for "going to Hell in a handbasket".

It's pretty scary to think about.

It's pretty much the agreement (but not a law) that permanent members of the Security Council can't be the country of residence for the UN leader.

billy knows that, so at one point he was looking at the idea of getting a dual citizenship with Ireland.

He wants the job, so if there's a way, he will find it.

If Bill Clinton renounced his US citizenship, went to Haiti and took over that country until it became prosperous, then he would not have to worry about coming from a country that is a permanent member of the Security Council.

Sounds like everybody wins.

Yep....she's definitely been 'damaged' by those Oval office hyjinks with her boss.

However, the MSM adores him & calls him 'president' instead of FORMER president and seems completely giddy at the prospect of BJ as 'first man'.

NOW Hags never came to her defense because they worship BJ for supporting their right to murder the unborn.
