Now ghoulish David Axelrod is singing the praises of Madame Secretary Clinton. Just listen to his words. Clinton- notice the tense - HAD A GREAT KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORLD. Yes she did. Even when she was lazily sipping tea with the ambassadors.
Maybe he thinks she acquired it while she was out stumping for barry before he was nominated while he took a vacation and hid out in Hawaii. Or maybe he thinks she acquired it between the Convention and Election day while she worked selflessly to recruit her voters while being trashed in the media for having ulterior motives. Without her voters barry would not have won. Period. Peraps he thinks she acquired her great knowledge under bary's tutelage during the transition phase.
Truth is she had it all along and only now when it's politically expedient, when she's helping barry and when he can no longer deny it does Axelrod admit to it. Says alot, doesn't it?
Barama Matthews is talking with Axelrod. Interesting first question. He's not so sure barry can handle the economy...why he just gave him an A minus.
MATTHEWS:
Is there a sense that she could be helpful to this and on the economic front politically at home. If it is rough going - that she could bring the Clinton coalition to bear on behalf of the president?
DAVID AXELROD:
I don't know. She's got her hands full. We've got a lot of challenges in the world and she's working tirelessly at them. So were not thinking about ancillary uses of the secretary of state. When you think about Pakistan, Afghanistan, the Middleast her dance card is pretty full.
MATTHEWS: How's she doing?
No hesitation.
AXELROD: GREAT!
I think it's been a wonderful partnership. The president chose her because he knew her as a rival and a colleague as someone who is smart, tenacious, well-prepared, HAD A GREAT KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORLD and all of that is coming into play.
And she's been a great, a great leading light in this administration.
Leading light. Not subservient light or rogue light or out for herself will only sabotage barry light. She actually cares about The American People and that is clearly evident in the way she conducts herself.
barama asks him about a scene from West Wing about Jimmy Smits picking Alan Alda and something about being inspired by it.
AXELROD:
You know that one of his favorite books is Team of Rivals. And I think he was inspired by that--mostly he was inspired to make that appointment by his knowledge and his sense of then Senator Clinton. And I think his instincts have been proven right.
barry and his instincts had nothing to do with anything. Madame Secretary is no different than she was in the July 2007 debate when all she knew was sipping tea with the ambassadors. and barry understood African villages because his father's mother lives there. And people bought it because of his "superior judgment".
And what did he do? Couldn't even conduct himself on the world stage. He said he would sit down with Chavez. Clinton said absolutely not - it'll be used propaganda. barry backed off during the campaign and first chance he gets he bows to the beast and shakes hands and yuks it up with the dictator, who called barry's predecessor the devil. Couldn't have asked for better propaganda footage - including their little not so private, not so genial chat.
I sure hope someone out there has the time and wherewithal to put together video sound bites of what barry and his camp -- that includes the media -- said then and what they're saying now. That's all that would be needed to prove their castration anxiety and gyne envy.
They want something - she does it.
She does it - they want more.
But before she started doing the very job she is doing for them - she wasn't capable of doing it.
The difference?
She was fighting for the same job.
Says all you need to know about barry and the rest of them.
Of the People, for the People...Madame Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
