Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told State Department employees Thursday that she will not stay on in the job if President Obama wins re-election, saying that she is ready to step off "the high wire of American politics," according to the AP.

A State Department official confirmed Clinton's comment, writing to Yahoo News: "Yes, she did [say that]. She said she would stay on until Obama nominates another Secretary of State."

I found the photo a couple of weeks ago, and don't recall where it was posted originally.

Apparently, she wore the... hat(?), to Vaclav Havel's funeral, while representing the USA. (how embarrassing)

My computer source shows CZECH-HAVEL, Authors: Nenov/Reuters.

OK. She was attending a CAtholic funeral at a Cathedral which should require a hat. Is that a hat? Really?

Madelyn is not wearing a hat. Does she have a hankie in her purse?

Looking at the way she’s let herself go I have no doubt she will leave when she says she will leave. BTW is she and hubby deliberately ignoring Nottoobright who is all smiles when she sees them?

October 12, 2011 "...it was reported that the State Department and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton were deeply involved in the scandal known as - Operation Fast and Furious, - or Project Gunwalker. - Today, however, new evidence has surfaced indicating that not only was Hillary deeply involved in the scandal but was one of the masterminds behind it.

According to investigative citizen journalist Mike Vanderboegh, sources close to the development of the Gunwalker scheme state that early on, Hillary and her trusted associated at State, Andrew J. Shapiro, devised at least part of the framework of what would later become Operation Fast and Furious. It was Shapiro who first described the details of the proposed scheme early in 2009 just after the Obama Administration took office.
