Obama would do himself a huge favor if he would call Al Gore and ask him the details on the Clinton office snafu just prior to his swearing in as VP. The FBI agent working the whitehouse had an interesting version of what Hillary would be like and just maybe Obama should avoid her.

May have received the proof after he got the nomination. Remember this is the same couple that illegaly commandeered 900 FBI files.

Newborn photo of him being born,,in a stick hut,, with lions and wildebeest in the background?

I am laughing at the image this presents. Stanley Ann in a hut with a male baby emerging from her, and the wildebeests all crowding around.

Why on earth is Obama so eager to have Hillary in the cabinet that he’s not only willing to risk leaks, backbiting, and drama, but willing to torpedo the ambitions of his closest aides in the process?

Could he be...stupid?

[traumer]

What had Rush to say about this ?

You forgot to add, "because there was no room at the inn".

“Hillary is after another co-presidency. Nothing less.”

I pulled up the line of succession last night.

It goes VP, Speaker of the House, President Pro Tempore of the Senate, then......Secretary of State. That’s #4. Obambi, Biden, Lalapeloosi, etc. better be watching their backs once the beast is confirmed. Definitely, they should not plan meetings where Obambi, Biden, etc. are in one room UNLESS they also have Her Thighness in the same room.

I still believe that Hillary hi-jacked the Sec of State job with Bill’s extortion of his threat to endorse McCain if he didn’t give her the position...

Or, perhaps, she has the CIA files on his real birth cert and movements in Pakistan.

Think of the “foreign policy crisis” or crises, as slow Joe Biden puts it, that Hillary/Obama are almost certain to face... even in their first year. These will include an aggressive nuclear armed Iran, Al Quaeda and the Somali Pirates, and an ascendant expansionist China with Taiwan in its sites. Not to mention Russian/Venezuelan foolishness, and Hezbollah threats to Israel... and Israeli fears of Iran. I wouldn't want that job, and Hillary and her supporters are clueless and delusional if they think she is up to it all. Either she will quit inside a year in failure, or she will precipitate a World War before she is through. There just isn't much of an up side to any of this.

[az_gila]

IMHO, she's banking on Obama/Biden failing miserably and then running against them as an Independent in 2012.

Nothing wrong or terribly risky or career-killing in doing a Secretary of State gig in the meantime. She'll just be getting more “experience.”

Wouldn't SoS be a good spot to get lots of positive TV coverage as she jetted around the world?

Any bad things that happen she can just blame on other countries actions, not hers. It also keeps her away from being blamed for anything about the US economy...:^)

Sounds to me like a good deal for her.

[Irish Eyes]

What in the world to the Clintons have on this guy? Something too terrible to use to knock him out in the primary, but enough to control him from this point on?

It’s just hard to find an explanation for all of this.

His real Birth Certificate.

[PistolPaknMama]

He's as "black" as any other black American with slave ancestry, which makes him plain old black in my eyes.

I never heard that Obama had slave ancestry. The Kenyans were the ones that sold slaves to slave traders. I doubt Obama has slave ancestors, not saying so, just doubt it considering the Kenyas role in the slave trade.

As far as being "plain old black" he also has roots that were very white European, why does that not make him "plain old white"?

This is the picture Obama said he wanted in his book, to rid himself of his whiteness. That's like an old geezer I know who will not discuss that he has Jews in his recent ancestry. You just am who you am, to loosley quote Popeye. :-)

We all fell for Bill being angry with Obama, etc. The Democrats are going to do whatever they have to do in order to stay in power.

Hillary will get what she wants because she has dirt on Obama that no one else has. She may not be president, but she'll have the say in many important political decisions.

I hate she is going to be the Secretary of State. Israel and others best be ready for some tough times.
