Like so much of our culture these days, game shows are getting mean.
We are still ensnared in the either/or arguments about preferred and lesser families - where parents are judged less by what they put into the job, but the numerical correctness they bring to it.
Madeline Albright once said, "Anybody who thinks the world would be a better place if run by women doesn't remember high school." I think about that. And I think about Hillary Clinton and women voters.
One of the Clinton campaign talking points recently is that you can't select a leader because he gives a good speech. But after all these years of mangled messages and cynical misdirection, I believe it's a very good place to start.
The more Hillary Clinton touts her time in the White House as being co-joined with the leader of the free world, the closer history pulls her to a vortex of questions about judgment, denial, cover-up, and convenient - maybe cynical - acquiescence.
