Purging the campaign

Samantha Powers, Barack Obama’s foreign policy advisor, has been taking a lot of heat because of her bizarre pronouncements about Iraq (where she proposes ethnic cleansing), Israel (where she proposes taking over the country), and Jews (where she views foreign politics as being primarily all about “what’s good for the Jews”).  And that’s not even touching on her profound ignorance about the players in the Middle East.  The media and the Obama campaign, were copacetic with these statements, either ignoring them or waiving them off.  Powers, however, went too far when she referred to Hillary as a “monster” (which really is a crass, tacky, vulgar thing to say in a Presidential campaign).  She’s now gone.  I wonder who her replacement will be.
