SUSAN MILLIGAN, U.S. News & World Report political writer, on Hardball:

And most secretaries, you know, most people, when they ask what accomplishment did she have as secretary of state, I think most people could not look at a secretary of state and point to an accomplishment. Frankly, mostly what a secretary of state does is keep something from, you know, becoming a massive crisis. So that, in a way, wasn't, you know, a terribly fair question.

All those "you know"s tell me she is a Hillary operative. You know?

Hell I can't think of an accomplishment by the State department in the last 25 or so years.

Nope. The only Secretary of State who sticks out in my mind is Kissinger. Heck, Hillary couldn't name her own accomplishments. No wonder none of those folks could.

BTW, I despise the videos that slow down load time and play automatically. :evil:

Maybe we should remove Secretary of State as a cabinet-level position. Apparently, they don't really do anything.

State does plenty, just not for the good of the US.
