Yep, She should have been offered the job while "Turd Blossom" was in power.

I loved Hill's comment that she "is, like, moving on." Moving on to where? Co-host with Oprah?

Clinton has been an absolute disaster as Sec of State. The world is going through momentous times, with multiple opportunities for the United States to effect lasting change without military adventures, and she does what? Dedicates herself to the advancement of women? With her the queen of the ball?

Total fool. A hole in the air.

Meaning that she will definitely be in the race for the Wihte House in 2016.

My bet is on another Presidential bid. She sure is not going to announce that she is interested in running at this point.

I agree but newsmax knows it's audience. Tell them everything they want to hear. These same people were selling Hillary nutcracker dolls 90's to present tense. Hillary Clinton Nutcracker - Hillary Nutcracker Doll
Notice the crickets from the right when she's the hawk defending their pet issues (military secure communications/ Assange)?

If she doesn't want the duty beyond a certain date looks to me she's doing that for personal and professional reasons. She's 64 yrs old and has endured political/ public scrutiny since 1979. A few in office have decided the better use of their time was engaging think tanks. Service is service is service.

America has rough water ahead and it's best we all be prepared. The trade deficit unattended for 40 odd yrs has been a steady devaluation of American standards and USD that sees no end in sight. Warren Buffet dubbed the plan sharecropping with foreign ownership. That's exactly where we've been headed from the onset of 'free trade' which is a misnomer for corporate piracy operating in ports of convenience getting around slavery. Not many heard Ross Perot's message too busy mocking his ears. I heard him just fine. Anyone care to go back in archives? He's no longer involved in politics. Why?

Clinton told CNN on Wednesday that she is happy in her current role and does not want to become president, vice president or defense secretary. In an interview in Cairo, Clinton says she has no interest in running for president in 2016 and plans to spend the next two years at the State Department.
Some have speculated Clinton could move to the Pentagon or mount another White House campaign.

Me thinks Hilliary was "unprepared" for the job of Secretary of State... how she ever expected to be President should bewilder other people... I am glad she wasn't elected, she was as corrupted as they came... anyone who has "tax-exempt" foundations and is profoundly wealthy is by definition already corrupt IMO....

In one group there are those with relatively more experience and a realistic view of the situation, especially Secretary of State Hilary Clinton, Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, and the uniformed military. Reading remarks from these quarters carefully shows subtle deviations from the White House line. They tend to see Iran as more of a threat and favor(ed) alignments with existing Arab regimes while being more skeptical of change and of Islamist groups.

'Fool' says so much more of the beholder than the intended target. Particularly when referencing the "Wihte" house.
"Fool" is the label she's stuck with unless objective facts, not opinons, evidence otherwise. Being cheated on by her husband might have won her New York, and the love of midde-aged female voters nationwide. It has not made her effective in any way on the international stage, as events have unrolled around her during her many unexplained absences. The President shunts her to photo-ops, to gatherings of overfed feminists, and otherwise ignores her embarrassing ignorance of world affairs.

Hillary the Fool. The choice of Fools. Most likely our next Fool President.

Clinton: No Interest in Job If Obama Wins in 2012


Colin Powell said "No" to a second term with George W. Bush Jr.

I can't say that I blame him one bit. He tried to be a "Team Player" and ended up getting his reputation trashed in the whole fake WMD mess.

Paul H. O'Neill decide that he didn't even want to serve a full term as Treasury Secretary.

John ******** was a one term Attorney General

The reality is in many cases cabinet secretaries serve one term for a variety of reasons.

Default I am getting out of here in 2012.

It seems that Hillary says she won't run in 2012 but that she is not having enough fun at her job to keep it beyond the end of the four years. I wonder what she really means with these words.
