It's one thing to have the discourse among U.S. citizens deepening, clearly hitting a low ebb, where each side is bashing the other's policies, where their statements are on looping media sound bites, but for the U.S. Secretary of State to use one disagreeable U.S. election (and unfavorable to her political party) as a ploy to gain favor - drawing a moral equivalence - with a government in Africa, is reprehensible and frankly sounds like crying sour grapes.

This speech by the Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, was just one more nail in the coffin being used to bury all the well-deserved respect for the United States of America.

If Madam Secretary cannot bolster another government without tearing down her own, she ought to resign her position in the state department.
