Back when Andrew Sullivan used the full portion of his brain, he would hand out Malkin Awards for offensively hyperbolized comments on the blogosphere. Sadly, his blog has become all Malkin, all the time. I wonder if he has any shame left. After this entry, the answer is sadly no.
A reader writes:I have to share your Dissent of the Day's sentiment, though for different reasons. I'd given some thought to the possibility you propose, but then I began imagining the liberties our current Vice President has taken with regard to the powers of his office--terrible, and disturbing, precedents. I know you'd agree. I'm not and have never been among those spouting the she-had-Vince-Foster-murdered meme, but we've all been witnesses to the Clintons' hunger for power, their sense of entitlement--remember the "inevitability" meme? Why feed that by granting her the vice-presidency? To put her a step away from the Presidency, though it would certainly be a magnanimous gesture on Obama's part, would be, I fear, far too much temptation. She--both directly and through those closest to her--has shown herself to be far less magnanimous, especially toward those whom she feels "owe" her and her husband.
She's willing to be destructive in the quest for power;
Sullivan takes the cowardly route of letting another person make this horrible accusation, but he chooses to reprint an accusation that is to the point that Hillary Clinton is so evil that if she were Vice-President, she might plot to kill Obama evoking the memory of Vince Foster in the process.
Good Lord, Andrew. You have the audacity to any time Hillary does something conservative (forget your champagne flute clinking over your fellow Etonian conservative Boris the Lout) to compare her to Rove. Yet here you are not channeling the spirit of Rove but Dan Burton.
Pathetic. Truly pathetic.
One thing is obvious between this and Andrew's hysterical pre-war support for the war. Once Andrew commits his heart, he's absolutely useless.
