Careful, Kuros. She might hear you. And rumor has it she doesn't have a great sense of humor.

Did someone photoshop Clinton's head on Dukakis' body? |

Were it not for the limit on the number of characters allowed in a subject heading, I expect Steve's heading would've said, "ANOTHER BILL CLINTON CABINET MEMBER SAYS WHY HE BACKS OBAMA"
After all there is Bill Richardson as well as Robert Reich now. Any others, Kuros?

Either Hillary Clinton was part of the adminstration or she wasn't. Which is it this week?
RS, nice picture.  |

Bingo, Robert!
Yes, and JFK was an awful, awful President. He hadn't the experience or good sense to conduct world affairs remotely well. Thankfully, I think Obama has a better head on his shoulders, but there are some valid parallels.
And Robert Reich is right, Obama and Clinton are not easily distinguished by policy. |
Uh, are you proud of being obtuse, or what? First you tell us that you believe Reich hit the mark and then proceed to chastise the Kennedy Administration. Read the article again; Reich is praising Kennedy for being a realist but only when idealism wouldn't work. He believes Obama might very well offer the same qualities of leadership.
Kennedy was taken to task by Kruschev at the Vienna Summit in 1961 but the former had a quick learning curve and was ready for the latter's theatrics in the Cuban missile crisis the next year. Doubt that anyone else in either party would have handled the Soviets as deftly from that point onward.
When you're taking a break from needling MilwaukieDave, perhaps you can inform us of the difference between a "valid parallel" and an "invalid" one? I'm all eyes.  |
Steve,
It's highly unlikely you'll get an answer out of her, the same with Ya-ta (who seem to be a closet Hillary Clinton fan).
I've been quite busy the last few days, so I haven't been around much. |
