Hillary will get the last laugh in the end, you idiots can try all you want but this is a done deal and there is nothing that the left wing or right wing nuts can do about it, another intelligent woman handling our countries business.

Mrs Clinton will do a great job as SOS, she is well qualified and has one of brightest geopolitical thinkers in recent history as her husband.

Although republican right wing zeolots will disparage and undermine her at every turn, she will return America's credability, prestige and honor to our foreign policy, after 8 years of sheer lunacy.

Go team Obama !!

I wonder if this committee will be willing to "suspend their selfish thoughts of disbelief" in confirming Mrs. Rodham? Also, I hope no one accidently knocks off the rather large racist chip on Ms. Rice's shoulder!

Tess, we're all past being divided. Our country is in shambles and all you can think about is your party loyalty? A party that screwed us so bad we may not recover and if we do, our children and grandchildren and so on down the line will be paying for YOUR mistake voting republican.

You can thank your lucky stars Hillary will be SOS. And of scandals...are you serious? Your party is downtrodden with scandal. Don't worry about other kitchens until you clean you own, babe.

Wow when Bill and Hillary were out there supporting Obama everyone loved them so don't forget you morons , without Bill and Hillary Clinton coming out for Obama he would not have got half the support he did in the end, so don't bite that hands that gave you that fool you so desperately wanted. She is the only one that I do trust .

L Griff:
A re you really as stupid as your post sounds?????
Once she is confirmed she can't have any fundraisers or donations to pay off the debt. At that time she will have tp pay off the debt using only her own money.
Why not actually read up on the law before you make stupid statements.

republicans – PLEASE FOR A CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN – make hillary accountable for all of her shady transactions – you have nothing to loose and could possibly regain some respect from disheartened republicans like me who think you have rolled over one time too many ! show some guts and make hillary answer some really hard questions and explain everything that smells bad!! it's about time somebody made her face the music – be a strong voice and maybe you will get a chance at getting back the house and senate – if not you will be in the minority for a loooong time!!!!

are we going to hear about hillary's pay to play regarding the $100,000 donation to her campaign and then her help in getting the donor whatever he needed!!?? let's once and for all put all of the clinton's cards on the table and see just exactly what slithers out! to do anything less just shows how serious the dems are about reform!

Hillary Clinton will have no impact in the Middle East just like Madeline Albright, and Condoleezza Rice. The Middle East has no respect for women, never had and never will. Women are perceived as weak and incompetent, just like Nancy Pelosi, Barbara Boxer, Dianne Feinstein, Barney Frank, and Harry Reid...

Trace the Middle East trouble to the British and the creation and implementation of the Balfour Declaration.

So much for change. Bush, Clinton, Clinton, Bush, Bush, now we're back to Clinton again. Where's the "Change I can believe in?" Not by appointing a Clinton.

Hillary Clinton should not be confirmed for anything. I wouldn't make her dog catcher. This is very bad judgement on Obama's part. But I guess he felt he had no choice, because they keep saying "she got 18 million votes", even though most of those were from Republicans.

NO MORE CLINTONS, NO MORE BUSHES!!!

By: LGriff

LGriff — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 20:36:49 +0000

I thought she couldn't be confirmed until her campaign debt was paid. Last I heard , she still 7 million in the hole. Oh, that's right, HUSH HUSH information. NOT!!!!!!

The United States of America has a very bright future with Hillary Clinton at the helm of the State Department. Secretary of State Clinton will bring lots of star power, respect, poise and admiration to this post and this world will see a change in foreign policy. If Hillary cannot be President, then she will excel brilliantly as Obama's partner as SoS to move this country forward and repair our image on the world stage. God Bless and Good Luck Secretary Clinton.

If she makes peace with Israel & Palistine, she would be qualified for the Nobel Peace Prize, indeed......and would receive it...

Lord knows, they've been fighting since the begining of time......
especially since 1948.....

The longer this Gaza thing goes on, the more the people in the Arab world will absolutely Hate the Jewish community....It's really sad...

Not to mention that their kids & their kid's kids will hate the jews, also

Go Hillary! Time for the next bold chapter in her career. Hope the sexist haters out there don't try to keep her down!

Keep showing women that you can be smart and bold and outspoken.

Thanks Obama for giving her a shot at this in spite of what the haters said.

Will they be addressing Hillary Clinton's latest scandal involving the donation to her husband's library by a NY real estate developer at the same time Hillary secured building permits for him.
Another "pay to play" scandal.

So much for change – Not!
