Is Hillary responsible for her top aid's actions?

Is what's good for the goose, good for the gander?

Do those who think Obama's war stance is compromised by the recommendation memo of a minor adviser, also think Hillary's trade stance is compromised by a top aid's negotiations with Columbia promoting a trade agreement Hillary opposes? Just wondering.

From the Wall St Journal article:

A spokesman for Colombia's President Álvaro Uribe said the ambassador met with Mr. Penn to discuss the bilateral agenda. "There have also been meetings with the advisers to the campaigns of Sen. Barack Obama and Sen. John McCain," he said. "It's the embassy's job to explain Colombia's reality."

But Penn met with them as a representative of Burson-Marsteller, "which signed a $300,000, one-year contract with the Colombian Embassy in March 2007 to work on behalf of the trade deal and anti-drug-trafficking initiatives, according to the Justice Department filings."

and from the article you quote "A spokesman for Sen. McCain, the likely Republican presidential nominee, said a team of policy advisers met recently with 20 Latin American ambassadors, including Colombia's. An Obama spokesman and the Colombian Embassy spokeswoman both said the Colombian ambassador had never met with an Obama representative."

"He should be fired for incompetence first, and stupidity second."

I totally agree. When she announced Penn was on her team, I thought there would be a huge conflict of interest. I'm surprised he's lasted this long.

As far as the question is she responsible? I quote Ann Coulter: "It's interesting to see Hillary being treated like a Republican".

Let's face it, if this were a Conservative, the media and NYT and Hollywood and Huffington and Kos and Soros would all be doing their best to damage that candidate's career.
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Hillary is responsible for: global warming, the Mets collapse last season, the recent decline in the stock market, and my enlarged prostate.
