Hillary misses an Opportunity for her Sister Souljah Moment
 
The despicable advertisement that far-left MoveOn.org took out in the New York Times recently wherein they assassinated the character of General Petraeus was a golden and auspicious moment for Hillary Clinton, in the words of Richard Cohen,” to rise above hackdom. It was a moment for her to insist that the business of politics, not to mention governing, is made even uglier and more difficult when people who merely differ with one another resort to insult. It was a moment for her to say that an Army general, under orders and attempting to fulfill a mission, should not be so casually trashed -- especially since she herself has been on the other side of the Iraq war issue and said things she must now regret. And it was a moment for her to trot out her favorite phrase and use it, not in her own defense for once but in defense of someone else. That moment is gone -- maybe because for Hillary Clinton it never arrived in the first place.”
Hillary demonstrated, along with most of her democratic colleagues, that when it comes time to distancing herself from the fulminations of the radical left wing of her party, she was not equal to the task at hand.
Hillary couldn’t even join in voting for a sense of the Senate amendment condemning the scurrilous MoveOn.org ad, which recently passed the Senate 72-25
