| Hillary Speaks: Moral Equivalance Watch |
| 2009-01-13 |
| Secretary of State-designate Hillary Clinton said on Tuesday the United States must address Israel's security needs and the Palestinians' legitimate aspirations as part of a pragmatic U.S. foreign policy. "As we focus on Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan, we must also actively pursue a strategy of smart power in the Middle East that addresses the security needs of Israel and the legitimate political and economic aspirations of the Palestinians," Clinton said in prepared remarks for her confirmation hearing before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. |

| #2 Here we have an excellent, infuriating, nauseating example of the emptiness and idiocy of most Dems and many others WRT national security. Nothing but sophomoric or empty slogans, signifying nothing, completely distorting the facts of the last 8 years. It's not harmless that people as smart as Hillary usually realize this is silly stuff they put out. Because it shapes and confirms a fantasy framework built up by their fellow politicos, academia, the media, and others. Rest assured not one nanosecond of actual discussion behind closed doors has anything to do with 99% of the puerile crap that passes for policy on the clueless, er, "liberal" side. My stomach is too weak to watch or peruse - is there anyone on Senate Foreign Relations with a clue who might actually raise the discussion to at least an undergraduat level? (thus leaving Hill and her ilk hopelessly over their heads) |

| #1 I didn't realize that the annihilation of every jew and the reoccupation of Jerusalem were legitimate political aspirations. |
