The Obliterator

I’ve done some house cleaning with the broken links and all, removing some of the more inactive blogs and reshuffling others. Hopefully, I’ll be adding some others in time as I return to more frequent blogging. I’ve also deleted some of the older posts I thought annoying as I much prefer posting what I write with most of my wits about me.

Any how, it has been fun watching the developments with the Obama-Hillary team over the past few weeks. The NYT reports: Clinton Moves to Widen Role of State Dept.:


Even before taking office, Hillary Rodham Clinton is seeking to build a more powerful State Department, with a bigger budget, high-profile special envoys to trouble spots and an expanded role in dealing with global economic issues at a time of crisis. […] Given Mrs. Clinton’s prominence, expanding the department’s portfolio could bring on conflict with other powerful cabinet members.

It seems as though the HRC reign is promising to be highly entertaining in the coming years, with purges of opponents and power grabs having been the more notable hallmarks so far. Remember this piece from the British Independent, Hillary Plays Hardball

I don’t know what it is, but frankly, the Obama-Hillary due has been reminding me of the following scene thus far.

I'm amazed, I must say. Rarely do I come across a blog that's
both educative and engaging, and let me tell you, you have hit the nail
on the head. The problem is an issue that not enough people are speaking intelligently about.
Now i'm very happy that I stumbled across this in my search for something relating to this.
