A couple of good friends of mine just welcomed their 3rd baby (and first daughter) and Kate Middleton is officially preggers, so babies are happening. Yay, babies!
In other news, I’d like to talk about this U.S. Secretary of State position, which is open because Hillary Clinton decided to take some time off and relax and spend time with her family run for president. Obama wants Susan Rice, who is currently the U.S. Ambassador to the U.N., but despite that, hell, even including that, she’s still relatively unknown. I’d never heard of her until Republicans started going nuts saying she told lies about what happened in Ben Ghazi, as if they have any idea what happened in Ben Ghazi.
A New Level in Geopolitics
So, my first reaction was that if the Reptilians were against her, I’m all for her. Their latest big revelation is that she owns stock in the Keystone Pipeline company. Not illegal, just that if she gets the job, she would have to sell the stock or then she’d be illegal. I’m sure she can do that, that’s not the part that bothers me. The fact that she owned stock in an oil company which wants to build a pipeline halfway through North America bothers me. It’s not that it’s a conflict of interest – it’s that her interests clearly do not run to the environmental.
Anyway, the job can’t go to John Kerry, as some have suggested, because that would just be stupid politics, putting a Senate seat into play that doesn’t need to be. No, if the job doesn’t go to Rice, and I no longer care if it does, the Democrats have all sorts of people they could offer the job to. How about Jennifer Granholm? She gave a brilliant speech at the Democratic convention and she was once a contestant on “Blind Date.” She’d have Putin eating out of her hand. How about Bill Richardson? He’s not doing anything at the moment, is he?
Who says it even needs to be a politician? Since the point of the job is to strengthen friendships with foreign countries and not start any wars, and most people who are not Mitt Romney could do that, wouldn’t anybody who is professionally polite and has a nice smile be ultimately qualified?
So, how about O rewards one of his big supporters, like George Clooney or Scarlett Johannson. That’d cause some ripples in the Middle East, you betcha.
Or maybe Oprah. If anybody could get the two Koreas to start talking to each other again, it’s Oprah.

Well, we know it wasn’t what she said. We know she lied. And she lied on purpose. And no, I’m not a Republican.
