| The Chicago Sun Times´s report on Friday saying that if Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had to choose between U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice and Senator John Kerry, Massachusetts Democrat, to succeed her, Clinton would likely opt for Senator Kerry: “Hillary is not close to Rice, who is tough — but is not the friendliest person,” said a top White House source. “And Hillary’s brief comment recently that Rice had done ‘a great job’ was considered underwhelming and tepid,” the source added. Apparently, if this report is accurate, Clinton and Rice have not mended fences since Clinton

So Hillary is just another stuffed shirt, as if we didn´t know all along. Seems any moment she is actually relied on to come up with some initiative, ping her internal compass, show the way ahead, she´s out the window. Later, she returns and tries to take credit for something she didn´t do, because she never would have thought of it to begin with. She and Barack, therefore, are a match made in heaven. This is all indicative of someone with no convictions, no morality, no real leadership skills. Ditto Obama. Useless phonies-all of them.

That is why either one of these harridans is perfect to continue Obama´s foreign policy. Can you even imagine our standing in the world when Obama leaves office?

I disagree that Rice is a nitwit. She´s brilliant and understands the situation. She shows a considerable lack of judgement and conviction of American core values by aligning with the squatter. As for her dislike of Piaps? She has pulled no punches. I have a feeling that Piaps is responsible for setting her up on Benghazi which indicates a serious lack of insight into the evils of DC politics.
"Rice explained that Obama believes the security of the American people could only be achieved if the well being of people in other parts of the world were satisfied too." (That means kowtowing to terrorists with whom there is no satisfying. Can´t/won´t happen until totally subdued.)
As for Piaps: "we don´t know what she thinks or how she would approach it."
As for SoS? Not good. Wrongheaded!
Then there´s Kerry! Decisions, decisions!

When your foreign policy team are all lifetime members of the liberal Hate Americal Movement, it doesn´t really matter who´s Sec. of State. Although either Rice or Kerry would be a real step down from Hilary, which says something right there, doesn´t it?

This outcome was pre-ordained when Susan Rice was picked by Obama. There was never any love between Rice and Hillary. Rice was the patsy in Benghazi. She was the only one that sold her soul for the SOS position.
The focus should be on Obama. He told us to come after him. Guess he knew that no one would.

I´m sure this is known but seems not widely discussed -- Susan Rice´s husband is white, a Canadian (by birth), a lumber baron and recently the producer of George Stephanopoulos´s Sunday program. Their wealth includes his family´s fortune, extensive resources (oil, gas, tar sands,etc)and other unacceptably green holdings.
Since he´s white and has anything to do with Susan, the CBC must, amongst themselves, find the husband utterly racist, to their consternation.

Lord Bell said: "It is with great sadness that Mark and Carol Thatcher announced that their mother Baroness Thatcher died peacefully following a stroke this morning." Baroness Thatcher was Conservative prime minister from 1979 to 1990. She was the first woman to hold the post. Her family is expected to make a further statement later. Baroness Thatcher, born Margaret Roberts, became the Conservative MP for Finchley, north London in 1959, retiring from the Commons in 1992. Having been education secretary, she successfully challenged former prime minister Edward Heath for her party´s leadership in 1975.

It’s a decision that will bruise egos, create legacies and deeply affect subsequent messaging battles. “Every time the bill is mentioned in the press, you either have a brand that´s positive or a brand that doesn´t mean anything or even hurts you,” said Frank Sharry, the executive director of the pro-immigration reform group America’s Voice.

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

Gluten-free diets are all the rage, but they can be dangerous if not done right. What is gluten? It´s the spongy complex of proteins, found naturally in wheat, rye, and barley, that gives elasticity to dough and allows it to rise. When flour is moistened and either kneaded or mixed into dough, gluten molecules form an elastic, microscopic latticework that traps the carbon dioxide produced when yeast ferments, causing dough to inflate like a hot air balloon. Baking hardens the gluten, which helps the finished product keep its shape. Wheat — and gluten — is ubiquitous in the American diet.
