SecDef Hillary Rodham Clinton

Is Hillary Changing Jobs?

Rumors are ricocheting through Washington that Secretary of Defense Robert Gates wants to retire--and that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton may soon replace him as Secretary of Defense.

And why not? The woman who campaigned for the Democratic presidential nomination with a TV ad declaring her “readiness” to fight has more than proven her grit in the last year. She stood up to Korea, blasted Pakistan, got pissed at Israel, came to terms with China.

"Cheney excepted? "

Sure, Cheney was great. But, one time someone went over Niagra Falls in a wooden barrel and lived to talk about it. Does that mean going over Niagra Falls in a wooden barrel is a good idea? Probably not.

Just because we've had some successful Secretaries of Defense that we're not prior service, doesn't mean it's a good idea.

Manchurian candidate’s administration becomes more surreal.

I think it's all part of The Plan. The One probably can't be re-elected because of his unpopular policies. Hillary's warming up in the Bull (dyke) pen and will be able to win the Soros-Code Pink-Brainless Boomer-Clueless Feminist votes. If she succeeds him The One's policies will continue with even greater energy but with a much harsher totalitarian flavor. Gulags and mental hospital therapy for wrong-thinking "dissidents" may be a-comin'.

Hell, let her change jobs and when she shows the country hoe incompetent she is she won't help her chances in 2012. That said she has spouted some of the same ideas as zero, if you vote for Hillary you get another zero.

I think that Rahm gave Bohama bad advice when he suggested that Hillary be placed on the payroll to keep her in check? She has quite honestly out shined the half white dude. Unless he plays some fancy Chicago politics, Hillary will be his successor in 2012......

I vote that she gets a permanent lifetime placement as ambassador to

hell.

She’d likely feel quite at HOME, there.

I am sure our military would like that. Not

They have to keep her in some kind of job. That’s the deal.

If she makes Sec Def she’ll be a shoe-in for 2012 IMO

So Hussein will get her a gig so she can beat him?

What the ass-kissing feminazi who wrote this fluff piece meant by "coming to terms" with China was the following:

"Okay, Ambassador Wun Hung Lo, here are the terms: You give my husband money for his campaign, and we'll give you lots of cool military secrets."

What a sleazy, spineless, America-hating old hag PIAPS is.

Her hideous heinous—BWitch Shrillery de Antoinette de Machiavelli de Marx de Stalin de Lenin de Pol Pot de Mao de Arafart de Che de Castro de Sade . . .
