Taliban Rebuffs ‘Lunatic’ Clinton Offer

Another blow to the idea that we can negotiate our way out of international gridlocks. You’ve got Iran and Venezuela mocking the President and the Taliban ‘moderates’ calling Hillary a loon. Oh the joys of the olive branch technique… here’s the report.

KABUL (Reuters) – Taliban insurgents reject a U.S. offer of “honorable reconciliation,” a top spokesman said on Wednesday, calling it a “lunatic idea” and saying the only way to end

Clinton: ‘Never Waste A Good Crisis’

Think about what we can do with health care and climate change with all of this fear in the air. That’s essentially what Hillary Clinton is saying here. Here’s the quote…

Clinton told young Europeans at the European Parliament global economic turmoil provided a fresh opening: “Never waste a good crisis … Don’t waste it when it can have a very positive impact on climate change and energy security.”

I’m not sure…

Hillary Clinton Confirmed 94-2

DeMint and Vitter were the Nay votes… Cornyn votes yea.

Hillary Clinton was confirmed by the U.S. Senate as the next secretary of state Wednesday, after questions about her husband’s foundation sidetracked her nomination for a day.

A number of senators said before the vote that Clinton, who traveled and met with foreign dignitaries around the world during her time as first lady, is uniquely qualified for the job.

Hillary Clinton Confirmation Hearings

The hearing is scheduled to start around 9:30AM Eastern.

Standby for live updates…

Update: Here are her talking points. Be prepared to hear ’smart power’ a lot.

Well, we’re off to an incredibly boring start. Senator Kerry is hosting the show and his introduction put CNN’s entire audience to sleep. Hopefully no one was listening on the radio. Chris Dodd has to jet off to a HUD meeting and he’s only giving…

Caroline Kennedy To Hillary’s Seat?

Another Senator Kennedy? The crazy speculation about Hillary Clinton’s Senate seat may not be so crazy after all. A Democrat who would know tells ABC News that New York governor David Paterson has talked to Caroline Kennedy about taking the seat, which was once held by her uncle, Robert F. Kennedy. It’s not exactly shocking that Paterson would reach out to one of the most highly respected public figures in New York, but

Obama’s National Security Team

WASHINGTON – When President-elect Barack Obama introduces his national security team on Monday, it will include two veteran cold warriors and a political rival whose records are all more hawkish than that of the new president who will face them in the White House Situation Room.

Yet all three of his choices — Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton as the rival turned secretary of state; Gen. James L. Jones, the former NATO commander,

Clinton Secretary Of State Chaos

WASHINGTON — Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York has reservations about accepting an appointment as secretary of state in the Obama administration, an adviser to Mrs. Clinton who is familiar with her thinking said on Tuesday.

Familiar with her thinking? What the hell does that mean? I’m familiar with the thinking processes of loads of people but that doesn’t mean I know what they plan to do in their careers. This…

Hillary To Accept SOS Position

Hillary Clinton plans to accept the job of secretary of state offered by Barack Obama, who is reaching out to former rivals to build a broad coalition administration, the Guardian has learned.
