Earlier this year, Hillary told screaming crowds that she was “intimately involved” in bringing peace to Northern Ireland. She was trying to convince voters that she had credible foreign policy experience derived from being the wife of President Bill Clinton, but her story has been debunked (here, here, etc,). Why, Nobel Laureate David Trimble, boss of N. Ireland’s Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) and their first prime minister, said this about that:

Lord Trimble of Lisnagarvey (formerly David Trimble), joint winner of the Nobel Peace Prize and former Northern Ireland First Minister was pretty withering, saying her claims were a “wee bit silly”.

But what about the current first lady? Barbara Bush is all over the Burma storm situation:

Mrs. Bush presided in the White House briefing room one day before the president spoke on the devastation in South Asia. She blistered military leaders in Myanmar as being “very inept” for repressing citizens and decimating an economy, and urged them to accept humanitarian aid to help a shaken nation recover.

This is Mrs. Bush since her husband’s second term began: ever comfortable with her platform, increasingly prominent on international affairs.

Hillary is a waste of a pants suit.
