Are any in congress smart enough to notice that they have been made irrelevant. Hillary (the smartest woman in the world) seems not to have realized that she has been muzzled and sidelined. Then on the other hand Zero is the first President to think he requires a food taster.
I think Hillary realizes it. I suspect she asked for Sec’y of State because that:
1. Allows her to live in DC full-time without having to pretend she loves NY anymore.
2. Gives her foreign policy and administration experience which prepares her to jump ship in two years and run against Obama in the 2012 Democrat primary, because she’ll be too old to wait until 2016.
