Doesn't it frighten anyone here that Henry Kissinger thinks Hillary would be a good SoS?

[ddeclue]

It does me!

:hide:

[Metric System]

1. Ugh. If he had said she would be a horrible SOS that would be used against her too. And you know it.

[ddeclue]

9. NOT BY ME IT WOULDN'T

HK scares the hell out of me... him and Bob McNamara scare the hell out of me... have you seen BM in "The Fog of War"...it's like watching an interview with a concentration camp guard 40 years afterwards... cold dispassionate, psychotic. HK is the same way.

2. They have, in hand, DIRT on Bill Clinton.

:evilgrin:

[ddeclue]

3. Only living guys I trust less than Henry Kissinger:

Dick Cheney
Bob McNamara...

yes I actually trust * more than HK.

If Nixon were alive I'd have to rate him a tie with HK along with the rest of the watergate actors.

[bowens43]

4. No, not at all.

[Ozma]

5. Is Kissinger at an age when he might be senile now? Just curious n/t

[DCBob]

6. There are alot Republicans and Democrats who think Hillary will be a good SoS in fact..

its nearly unanimous.

[az chela]

7. Yes very much and I would like to know what

Thats all about

[tinrobot]

8. Frightened of a senile old man?

Not me.

10. No

[political_Dem]

11. It is disturbing, when you think about his "crimes" and machinations.

He's also a turn-coat too.

Kissinger was a man who was duplicitous and played both sides to get a means to an end. What he did was disastrous. I tend to view him more as being in the Cheney school of thought: a man, when placed in a position of power, using it as a way to promote bad policies for selfishness and wrongdoing.

Does his endorsement mean much? It may make you think twice.

[Catherine Vincent]

12. No. nt

[AlCzervik]

13. It pisses me off that a war criminal like Kissinger still roams free.

Fuck off Henry.

[DFLforever]

14. No.

[Lint Head]

15. Read the Shock Doctrine or The End of America.

Kissinger is a war criminal responsible for turning his back on the disappeared in South America.

16. Not really, Hillary is a likeable person

but even so, her original pro-war stance cost her the campaign which allowed a shoo-in for Senator Obama. Proof that a person who is consistently for peace is best able to get the support of the majority.

The whole idea of the "peace dividend" is that it creates the greatest amount of wealth for the largest number of people. Wars cause the concentration of wealth into fewer hands.

Don't think Kissinger would agree, he appears to operate on the level of Machivellian behavior.

[jenmito]

17. Yes. Bill Kristol thinks so, too. n/t
