Rosner's Domain: For and against Clinton at State

I've been reading through the many, many - far too many - articles for and against Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State. I've been reading through the Friedmans and the Broders and the Dowds and the Ignatiuses and all the less famous (but frequently more thoughtful) writers. I've read until my eyes burn, and it all comes down to this:

For: Those hoping Clinton will be independent enough to save the U.S. from a too-naïve Obama foreign policy.

Marginal subgroup: Those thinking Obama can actually control Clinton.

Against: Those apprehensive about an independent Clinton ruining the chance for a “changed” foreign policy.

Marginal subgroup: Those still suspecting Clinton is really a radical dove.

The rest, as the sages used to say, is commentary.

Why have all the postings (most quite knowledgeable and insightful ) responding to this blog been removed? BTW, those who related to others, such as John Kerry or Bill Richardson were also relating to an earlier JPost story about the various candidates for Secretary of State, not merely gossip about Hillary, pro or con. Those who choose to broaden a debate at a fundamental level should not be censored - if I wanted to participate in an online poll, i would find one that asked: "Should Hillary be SoS, Yes or No?" "Click here".

Mike Feldman, Canada: Heather. You message is a tough sell on this blog. Converting Israel to Christianity is probably even beyond your reach. If all the Muslims accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior would they make nice with Israel?
Mike Feldman, Canada: Tom. Did you know that Ahmedinejad is acually a Mossad coverft? Did you know that Bibi is a Muslim sympathizer? I'll bet you didn't know that Leiberman sneaks into his Mosque when no one is watching. We had this indiginenous discussio\n before, and your answer was to read the Ottoman registries. I did and found no evidence of any other people having a continuous history in the area other than the Jews. What you call ethnic cleansing would take a couple of thousand years at its current pace. Where did you 'read' about Mossad setting up Hamas?
Monotheist: Heather Davidson, Heather, if you want to help Israel, you are welcomed. But stop talking about Jesus. Jews won't worship a god that dies on a cross...a god who can't even protect himself...a god who is no god..a god who is a false god.
