When This Blows Over

It’s amusing to me that outlets like NYT always quote liberals who
are perplexed at how Hillary’s handled the email situation.
As if the problem is that she should be able to perfectly navigate
out of this, but she’s bungling it for some inexplicable reason.
She’s doing what she has to do, because the content of her email
server would destroy her and probably many others politically, if
not criminally.
All that can be said is she will hopefully do no worse
than Dubya did to cause colossal damage worldwide or
the damage his brother is likely to do if he is President.
She plays the game just like any man does, for power
and from knife-edged ambition and little else in vision,
and from that never will grow any new rights for
women anywhere.

• Need I remind you that no candidate for US
presidency would be remotely eligible for
consideration unless she or he was cynical, amoral,
utterly ruthless, 100% reliable in terms of readiness to
serve the interests of corporate and military power
and the super-rich. Clinton ticks all of these boxes,
and brings an added dimension of mendacity,
arrogance, disregard for international law or decency:
and as regards her well established, belligerent
support for Israeli crimes, her election would be very
bad news for world peace. An odious nasty piece of
work, totally irrespective of gender.
