"Here she comes...Ms. Secretary of State." Certainly no beauty contest winner, but Madeleine is neither attractive nor "all (that) bright." Being an integral part of foreign policy formulation during the Carter Administration, is akin to being on radar duty at Pearl Harbor, the morning of December 7, 1941.
And like all good leftists, she brags about her superior "Mighty and Almighty" morals, indeed the perfect title for her new book which is a total waste of trees. "MAD"eleine objects to President Bush's belief in dividing the world between good and evil. I guess she has more sophisticated, nuanced descriptions for Osama bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, Hamas and al Qaeda.
Which is why only an extremely disturbed intellectual like Albright can go to North Korea while secretary of state to toast Kim Jong Il, a child molesting madman whom she found, "very well informed." Madeleine Albright is absolute proof that the recent Michael Savage New York Times bestseller, "Liberalism Is a Mental Disorder," is entirely too kind. The liberalism of the 21st century is certainly no disorder; it is a serious illness, every bit as deadly as any life threatening cancer.
Leftist liberals like our former secretary of state find it painful to believe in truly evil people because it is impossible that there are people who do not want a good, peaceful life. It is impossible that Adolf Hitler did not want the German people to succeed with their own talents. It cannot be that al Qaeda followers do not want to take their families to Disneyworld.
How is it possible that there are human beings who would rather put Jews into gas chambers or fly airplanes into office buildings, murdering as many innocents as possible. It is just too painful an idea for the radical mind on the left to actually believe; that people would rather die than live with others in peace. The mind of a Madeleine Albright simply cannot confront the idea that a Saddam happily tortures, a bin Laden will cut your head off in the name of God and a Palestinian would want every last Israeli dead.
The Madeleine's of the world think that real evil is a word made up by Republicans. So instead of confronting true evil, they have made non-evil into evil. Just listen to Madeleine, her ex-boss Jimmy Carter, her mentor Ted Kennedy, the Democratic nominee for president--Al Gore, her party leader Howard Dean and you will hear them describe true evil as "second hand smoke, global warming, American military actions in Abu Ghraib, driving an SUV or large corporate profits."
When born Jews like Madeleine Albright leave Judaism to participate in new secular religions a la Karl Marx with Marxism, Betty Friedan with Feminism, Felix Adler with Ethical Humanism, Ayn Rand with Objectivism, et al, their new religions becomes a radical cause celebre. The fact that Ms. Albright has embraced some new bastardization of John Kennedy liberalism, does not mean it is the same ideology. In fact, her ideas are the exact opposite of the 1960's liberalism many of us cherished.
In addition, Secretary Albright makes the incredible claim that "men are much too intimidated with her intellect and position in life to date her." Quite the rationalization my dear Madeleine--perhaps it has more to do with the simple fact that you look more like you might be in Ringling Brothers opening act as the ringmaster rides on top while the children throw peanuts. I mean, did you see those legs on your widescreen HDTV. Scary!
There was even a rumor in the beltway that it was actually Hillary Clinton who was instrumental in Ms. Albright's appointment to the cabinet. Perhaps she would have the same effect as saltpeter on the president. It turns out that her physical appearance is not the big turnoff, since it is Ms. Albright's extremely ugly soul that matters most. Madam Secretary had the audacity to say that "the recent Iraqi war (that rid the world of Saddam) may eventually rank among the worst foreign policy disasters in US history."
Not the fact that her boss, Jimmy Carter did nothing but encourage the Ayatollah Khomeini's rise to power in Iran, or the fact that America became the laughingstock of the world when the hostages were taken by a small group of incompetent terrorists followed up by a ridiculous American helicopter rescue attempt, or the foreign policy missteps including her extreme anti-Serbian positions and her l'chaim toast with the little bar mitzvah boy, Kim Jong Il. These events say a great deal about the superwoman they call Madeleine.
The former Secretary has criticized the current President's openly Christian faith as "religious absolutism," since his decisions are based on Judeo-Christian ethical principles--whereas she is much smarter because she gets her values from the left's Bible, currently The New York Times editorial pages.
So it is true that Madeleine Albright and her liberal/leftist entourage want to believe that a happy, peaceful world is achievable very shortly. Generally people right of center also wish for a happy, peaceful world. However, they know that the real Bible teaches us that we will have to fight for that idea due to the simple fact that there are real bad guys out there. And we good guys and gals have to fight the fight and endure the pain, while the Albrights of the world bask in their sick rationalizations.
