Hillary “Monster” Clinton roars again, Obama advisor resigns
Friday, March 7th, 2008Ny Times just reported that Samantha Power, a foreign policy adviser to Barack Obama, apologized for calling Hillary Rodham Clinton “a monster” and then resigned her post as an advisor to Barak Obama.
The problem is, she spoke the truth. Hillary Clinton IS a monster, who will say ANYTHING to get elected.
Clinton already demonstrated she has a total lack of judgement when it comes to voting to authorize force in Iraq and then Iran, but now she is showing judgement of an equillay reckless caliber with her “slash and burn” campaign technique, whereby she praises John McCain and demonizes a fellow Democrat.
The loss of a trusted advisor might help Obama heal the open wounds with Clinton supporters after he ultimately wins the nomination. But lets be clear: Samantha Power’s comments were clearly on the mark. Her departure is further evidence of the difference between these campaigns: one values integrity, the other will say anything. But in this case Powers can be forgiven for speaking the truth, even if it is as ugly as Hillary Rove Clinton.
