BLUF:
[Powerline] We get a preview of coming attractions in reports of an interview with Ms. Hillary for the October cover story of Psychologies magazine (I've never heard of it either), as reported in the British press. The Telegraph and Daily Mail headlines don't say it all, but they say about as much as we need: "Hillary held truth and reconciliation hearing over Bill's affair" (Telegraph) and "Hillary Clinton says Bill was subjected to South Africa-style hearings in order to work through his affair with intern Monica Lewinsky" (Daily Mail).
According to the articles, Ms. Hillary claims to have convened "South Africa-style" truth-and-reconciliation proceedings akin to those convened by Nelson Mandela to overcome the effects of the apartheid regime. Ms. Hillary explains that she was inspired by Mandela and that she had to invoke the truth-and-reconciliation process with Mr. Bill to avoid a mental "prison" for the rest of her life. Now she is free.
Who comes up with this stuff?
Lest we forget, when it served the purposes of the left, Mr. Bill was declared our first (metaphorical) black president by Toni Morrison in the New Yorker. This was before Obama became our first mixed-race president and New Yorker editor David Remnick took up the apostle's mantle.
Ms. Hillary now casts Mr. Bill in the role of one of the masters of apartheid and herself in the role of Mandela. It's all in a good cause, of course, as was the proclamation of Mr. Bill as our first black president, and no one is now about to disrupt the forces of history, let alone those of truth and reconciliation.
I have no problem with the Mandela strategy as long as both of them spend 18 years on Robben Island before making the run.
