Drinking the Kool-Aid: Failing to lead, Hillary follows the President in placating the world

Drinking the Kool-Aid: Failing to lead, Hillary follows the President in placating the world: "The video of Hillary Clinton peevishly snapping at a student questioner in the Congo was the meltdown seen 'round the world. But that undiplomatic moment was hardly her worst on the Africa swing.

The real clunker came with her pathetic attempt to compare Nigeria's corrupt and violent 2007 elections to the contested 2000 American presidential results.

In equating the two, the secretary of state echoes President Obama's sour apologia tours around the globe. Either he's writing her speeches now or Clinton's drinking the White House Kool-Aid. Neither is appealing.

The bended-knee approach abroad shames America and reduces our great nation to the sum of its mistakes and failures. And it seems designed to create the misleading impression that Third-World kleptocrats and genocidal maniacs are, gee, just like us."
