Last I checked she works under someone else's orders.

1. I'm not familiar with what you're referencing -- could you enlighten me?
And you're right - she's not President Clinton, she's Secretary Clinton, the buck doesn't stop with her.

I think she's doing an outstanding job.

7. Sorry, in the wikileaks documents there are directives signed by her
authorizing US diplomats to "spy" on U.N leaders and report back. Everyone is acting like its completely her fault and that this proves she would have been a terrible president. They don't seem to realize that chances are Obama authorized, or even ordered her, to do this.

12. Thanks for the clarification. I'm drowning in all the Wikileaks
stuff - It's fascinating. Guess I hadn't gotten to that thread yet. I'll know to bypass it. :7 :hi:

4. Because she's gone rogue, and Obama can't control her.
The power of the Clenis don't you know :sarcasm: You can bet the farm, policy comes from Obama. But some people aren't going to let that get in the way of a good Hillary hate.

9. So you believe that Obama had no knowledge of this, and he was completely in the dark?

14. There's nobody to BLAME - this is the shit that's been going on
forever that we all hate. It's SOP. Blame belongs to Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rove, et al, for harming the American people and people abroad.

This is just another excuse for the Obama vs Hillary crap. There's more interesting and important stuff to learn from these, IMO.

10. Oh good grief - are we still doing the Obama vs Clinton thing?
Chances are they're both operating under the standard American Military Industrial Complex code of ethics.

13. Exactly.
Obama is NDC and Hillary is DLC.

16. Agree, but I'm giving the OP the benefit of the doubt since s/he
just recently joined our dysfunctional family and may be puzzled by the "piling on" that s/he read in another thread.

:hi:

15. Don't know if you dropped by during the Primaries, but the Hillary vs
Obama sentiments got pretty intense. It's my opinion that some people just won't let it go, which is pretty immature and pointless.

So if you're getting attacked because you asked a valid question, it's people assuming you've got an agenda.

Don't take it personally, and welcome to DU! :hi:
