Newsflash: Hillary Clinton follows political winds; would lick the bottom of ash trays for votes

Whatever the political winds tell her to say in the moment. That is the mantra of the Clinton candidacy.

Jeffrey Lewis, the always brilliant Arms Control Wonk, writes a far too generous piece about Clinton's flip-flops on nuclear policy last Thursday.

As one of his commenters noted, Clinton shape-shifts so much on the campaign trail, I don't trust her anymore, in office or as a leader, generally. Hillary Clinton wouldn't be the worst President ever (she's got some steep competition with the likes of Ulysses Grant and Richard Nixon). But I'd hardly call her fine Presidential material. She's got work to do to demonstrate that capacity. And that Foreign Affairs article doesn't cut it for me. To be fair, Obama's article is not terribly strong, either, by my lights. But at least Obama is trying to think America out of its foreign policy ruts, right now. If Clinton is thinking, seriously, she's not sharing it. And then she wears her failure to dig deeper for solutions as a badge of ignorance to flatter the pride of every dumbass, foolish, incurious Joe-Schmoe she can hoodwink into voting for her.

That kind of arrogance is scary, it's not just stupid.

People just get used to politicians lying. They forget that's what they're doing. Jeffrey is just too used to the lying.

But I'm not.

And I'll call that lying bitch on her bullshit every fuckin' chance I get. I wouldn't speak that strongly on the matter, except that I don't like it when more honest people get muscled by liars and bullshit artists. And Barack Obama and the rest of the Democratic pack are most definitely getting muscled by the junior Senator from New York.

Hillary Clinton needs to sit out this Presidency. David Geffen is right. The Clintons are far too skilled as liars. And Hillary and Bill need a serious comeupance.

At this point, I don't care who gives it to them. I would prefer Obama. But I might settle for Rudy.

No wonder that pair's relationship is so fucked up. They wouldn't know an honest impulse between people, anymore, if it came up and bit them in their big, fat progressive asses.

You make me choose between the lesser of the two evils, you better make damned sure that you're the lesser. Because in Hillary Clinton's case, there's no way to tell anymore.
