Reply #29: Power? What power? [View All]

Michelle is making a bugaboo of those in "power," but can she possibly be talking about the Clintons?

BO is a Senator just like HRC is. She has no more power than he. And WJC has influence, yes, but only because he has earned it through years of wonksmanship, hard work and solid decision-making. But he hasn't any real power, If he had, he could never have been made to testify about his sex life in a grand jury proceeding that -- against all precedent and common decency -- was broadcast on TV within an hour of its completion.

The Clintons do not have power these days. And when they DID have it they used it well, not for private profit, but for the greater good.
