Bill Made Her Do It

Gandelman at the Moderate Voice explains why it’s OK for the secretary of state to get irked and verbally spank an African college kid. Apparently it’s because she has had to put up with Bill for all these years, but got elected to the Senate despite that* and because she’s a great secretary of state. (Once you get past all the gaffes and that Iranian election thing, plus whatever the heck the administration is trying to do with Israel, I guess.) Also, because she was probably jetlagged. Humiliating earnest foreign college kids in that context is laudable for its honesty, and more pols should do it.

I dunno about you, but I can’t wait for some Russian or Iranian plant to start really goading her with something other than some obscure World Bank thing no one ever heard of.

“Why does your husband murder the aspirin factory with missiles?”  

Something like that. Or “What are the thoughts of Joe Biden, through your mouth.”

* No cruel remarks about how the Chicago native who spent most of her adult life in Arkansas got elected to the Senate from New York, please.
