Hillary Clinton, after Honduras and Libya, is the worst person to try to talk up her foreign policy "successes" and the "good that she wrought".

My ability to stretch reality doesn't extend that far, and I don't believe it does, either, for you DSB. Some people can turn on a dime when it is illustrated that there is rot in the core of a politician. Some people take a long time before they see it.

I respect your opinions, but I can only conclude you are in camp 1. I do know that when you meander over to camp 2, or even if you don't, I'll still be your friend.
