T. Kumar of Amnesty International USA said the global rights lobby was “shocked and extremely disappointed” by Clinton’s remarks.
He ought not to be.
Surely Amnesty International is part of the problem, having made plenty of “mazoola” by displaying self-righteousness and offering others the conduit for their own, in return for donations. The business model is quite that of Jesse Jackson, is it not?
The import of Hilary’s words might be read this way: she ain’t playing. If she ain’t playing, maybe ain’t so easy for others to play, and maybe that’s a good thing. Much as I am in the habit of scowling at the mention of her name, I begin to see reasons why I might have to change my notions about her. In her own way, she may have as unflinching a view of featherless biped behavior as our Wretchard himself.
