I agree SNK, I image the state depart and government had changed so dramatically with the Bush admin, that many people working there probably felt like the were in the land of Oz. And collectively wishing the could click there red shoes and go back home to Kansas. At least that was my take.

Beats me – it threw one of my comments into Spam, too!

Anyway, I know it disrupts the flow of the “conversation,” and hopefully, it will mellow out soon!

Sorry for the inconvenience!!

LOL. It was no inconvenience. I just wonder sometimes which buzzword(s) kicked it into overdrive. The other day it appeared to be the word philosophy. Who knows?

Hey, Ferd –

I just approved your comment. I hope you saw the post SusanUnPC did yesterday abt this darn spam filter – it has gotten SUPER sensitive. But DON’T re-send your comment. If it doesn’t show up and one of us isn’t around to rescue it, email Susan. The filter is SUPPOSED to learn the error of its ways, but it won’t if the same comment is re-submitted.

Sorry for the inconvenience!!

Unfortunately, those who refuse to read and read history , they repeat the crap for those of us who do pay attention, and we will suffer along with the idiots!

Yep, the unwashed herd is leading the charge straight for the cliff on the far left after having narrowly missed the last cliff on the far right.

Can I get out of this rodeo for morons now?

Yes, I am VERY proud of Hilary. I am more concerned that she will not be allowed to truly weigh-in on areas of major concern — that her brilliance will be minimized. But we know how feisty she is — so I am betting on HER for now!

Those kids, though, were the soccer kids, every single thing they did was programmed for them, someone else making the decisions every single moment of their lives.

They never learned to think independently, or rebel, their need to differentiate manifesting in passive-aggressive behavior.

(I had a very good friend who insisted her children, at the very tender age of seven, learn golf (in addition to soccer), ostensibley to further their potential in the corporate market place when they became of age. She would also speak wistfully of her deep desire her children be tall, with white teeth, because tall people with white teeth have it best in corporate America.

All this, and the kids were subkect to SAT drills from birth. Ok, not birth, kindergarten: it’s never too early to start vocab, you know…)

So, when someone comes along to sell them a bill of goods, whether Rush or Obama, they bite.

Her kids, btw, are doing OK, but nothing extraordinary — probably voted Obama, though.

I’m reading that Hillary’s job as SoS is being minimized constantly, as one special envoy after another is appointed. Reading those releases carefully, I can’t see that the SoS is appointing them. Samantha Power (whom the Brits call “lightweight”, and who called Hillary “a monster”) is back in an important job. And now, when Hillary tried for the China portfolio, it will stay with the SecTreas., under “trade”. Read that as how much $$ we owe them, also that IMO the O ony appointed Hillary to appease the likes of us.
If anyone can create order out of this and make the job a success, it’s Hillary.
