Love Affair Grows Even Stronger With The Hawkish Sir Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton Officially Named As Obama-”O” Biden Secretary Of State…
In reference to our Joint Chiefs Of Staff Chairman, Admiral Michael Mullen’s “official gushing” after his first meeting with President-elect Barry “Steve” Obama, The Washington Post‘s Karen DeYoung writes a piece entitled “Joint Chiefs Chairman ‘Very Positive’ After Meeting With Obama” in which she describes how not only Admiral Mullen, but nearly everybody else in the Pentagon is swooning over PEBSO‘s election win now that he’s selected the “hawkish” former G.O.P. activist and Wal-Mart Director, Sir Hillary Rodham Clinton, to be his Secretary of State.
From the WaPo article:
“… Mullen showed up with just a pad, a pen and a desire to take the measure of his incoming boss.
There was little talk of exiting Iraq or beefing up the U.S. force in Afghanistan; the one-on-one, 45-minute conversation ranged from the personal to the philosophical. Mullen came away with what he wanted: a view of the next president as a non-ideological pragmatist who was willing to both listen and lead. After the meeting, the chairman “felt very good, very positive,” according to Mullen spokesman Capt. John Kirby. …”
Another “snippet” regarding the general point of view through the eyes of the Pentagon of Barry “Steve” versus President “Surge” Dubya Bush:
… “The joke was that when you leave a meeting, everybody is supposed to drink the Kool-Aid,” Nash said. “In the Bush administration, you had to drink the Kool-Aid before you got to go to the meeting.”
Obama’s expected retention of Robert M. Gates as defense secretary and expected appointment of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton as secretary of state and retired Marine Gen. James L. Jones as national security adviser have been greeted with relief at the Pentagon.
Clinton is respected at the Pentagon and is considered a defense moderate, at times bordering on hawkish. …”
“Hawkish”? I suppose you could call someone who votes unequivocally to go to war in Iraq based upon nothing less than “faulty” (at BEST) “intelligence” (at BEST), then tries to pretend for YEARS her written-in-stone vote for “shock and awe” never occured as “hawkish” — that is, if you want to be nice about it. OR, you could call her a bald-faced liar. Or BOTH. I choose the latter, but that’s just MOI (again, yep — I’m part French and WAY proud of it).
Let me just put it to you like this — when the Pentagon SWOONS over Barry “Steve-O”, be afraid. Be VERY afraid. It’s a great sign the military industrial complex -slash- OLIGARCHY of Bush-Cheney, Incorporated shall live on.

I wouldnt worry too much yet, I dont think anybody from brother john birch is having him speak at a luncheon any time soon. He hasn’t even been sworn into office yet, and conservatives are dropping their guard and liberals are whining, well this conservative cat won’t be dropping his guard anytime soon. he hasn’t even begun his riegn of leftist domestic economic and social terrorism. these supposedly “moderate” appointments thus far are a smoke screen at best. the quiet changes say way more about his real agenda than the loud ones.
with influence from the leftist septic tank the center for american regress, rampant inthe transition team and the likes of “lock it all up except the border” environmental and social left wing extremist Raul Grijalva and the socialist socialite Caroline Kennedy,
among others waiting in the shadows and plenty key posts left to fill this country is still headed 90 mph at a hard left turn. Personally I am bracing for the wheels to come off.
rest assured the liberals will still find reason to refuse happiness
