Hillary Clinton must be reading the latest polls … for she
is now taking some astounding positions that are diametrically opposed to what
she espoused just nine months ago. After being President Obama’s lap dog for
four years, she is now growling, baring her teeth and is nipping at his heels.
She has recently given an interview to Jeffery Goldberg of The Atlantic Magazine in which she did a
wormy one-eighty from many positions she enthusiastically backed while she was
Secretary of State. Now she conveniently states:
- President Obama was mistaken in not helping those opposing
Assad in Syria early in the revolution there. (Lest we forget Hillary … and
John Kerry … were big supporters of Assad back in 2009 when the United States re-established diplomatic relations with Syria.)
- The United States needs to formulate a “cold war” against
jihadism. (Is and was not the Muslim Brotherhood in the vanguard of the
jihadist movement … this same Brotherhood whom both she and President Obama did
their level best to grease its way into running Egypt.)
- The United States needs an overarching strategy to defeat
the radical Muslim movement … one that is clearly now lacking. President
Obama’s doctrine of, “Don’t do stupid shit” is not a strategy. (What, pray tell, did she do to help formulate an overarching strategy?)
- Israel is in the right when it represses Hamas … even if
this means that innocent civilians must die in the crossfire. (During her time
running the State Department … and before ... Hillary has clearly hated Israel and loyally
backed Obama in his callous and hostile stance toward this vulnerable nation.)
- Iran has no right to enrich uranium. (Good God, what a
hypocrite!)
To see the much fuller context of these Hillary Clinton comments, read Paul
Mirengoff’s excellent blog posting … see:
Powerline Blog . I highly recommend it.
Hillary Clinton, the woman who may want to be our Worm in
Chief, not only lacks a moral compass, she also is missing a tiller, rudder and
sextant.
