A Samantha Power Moment
It is obvious I was frustrated, to say the least, when I wrote my last post about the Clintons’ nuclear plan to win the Democratic nomination. One could easily argue a few statements were over the top and it would have probably been better if they remained unsaid, at least publicly.
I regret, to a point, that I allowed my frustration to “boil over” into the public domain. It is important to maintain civil discourse. However, on the other hand, I do not regret the sense of frustration that motivated some of my statements. I suppose I had a Samantha Power moment.
After seven years of watching the Bush administration twist, distort, and frequently outright lie in order to push personal agendas rather than serve the best interests of the country, I cringe when I see the Hillary campaign doing the exact same thing. Obviously, the cringe worked its way into my written sentiments last night.
Update: I should probably clarify a point. I did not intend to imply that my frustration was derived from a likelihood that Clinton’s nuclear strategy would prevail (or not). The strategy is what I find to be frustrating.
