Future Star Wars: Hillary Clinton and Samantha Power
Samantha Power may be the best example of how inflated the notion is that Harvard is a top educational institution in America. Nothing like a quote from the Harvard professor to highlight the flaws of liberalism in the US as well as her own. She is the woman who resigned from Obama’s campaign after referring to Hillary Clinton as a monster. She has returned to the Obama camp (maybe never departed) on the transition team and may work with Hillary if the former Presidential candidate really becomes Secretary of State. Here is the quote from Samantha Power.
The reason ‘few have focused on this’ demonstrates two facts. That liberals are a feeble choice on matters of national security and foreign policy is no myth otherwise the concern over their preference for surrender and appeasement would not be so well known or misrepresented by Power as a myth. Even their party leader, President-elect Barack Obama will not admit those opposed to the troop surge in Iraq were wrong. The second fact is the DNC is in a ‘position’ by virtue of a Presidential election victory but there is nothing to support it as a ’strong position’. The rhetoric of an ‘eight year nightmare’ continues the empty dialogue of the left who will not face the fact that we have not been attacked again since 9/11.
The best and only worthwhile part of Samantha Power’s quote above is a sentence that starts with ‘if the party succeeds’. Not a great deal of confidence being displayed by a close adviser to Barack Obama. This may be the only honest portion of the quote and represents another fact about liberals that is NOT a myth. They have a tendency to self-destruct and snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
Maybe her lack of confidence and few in their own ranks focusing on the chances of success for Dems indicates how chronic their neurosis has become. Think carefully the next time a Harvard professor is credited as the source of some report or study displayed in the news. With Samantha Power as an example the wisdom in trusting such information based on reputation may be more suspect than previously thought. The choices being made by someone else from Harvard, namely Barack Obama, may be of more concern. Samantha Power brings nothing to the table to reduce those views.
Name calling, being fired without really leaving and then assuming a larger role in the Obama Nation raises early red flags on the judgment of Obama and his followers including Samantha Power. We don’t heed her anywhere near the State Department or in the public sector.
