Sec. Clinton’s North Pole Diplomacy

1:14 pm EST December 23rd, 2009 | Uncategorized | 7 Comments

America is back on the nice list.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton kicked off her Christmas vacation Tuesday with some secret holiday diplomacy, the State Department said Friday.

On the way to her home in New York from Washington, Assistant Secretary PJ Crowley told reporters Clinton stopped at the North Pole “for an important bilateral meeting with a well-known international figure.”

Crowley declined to say who the meeting was with, but a senior State Department official told CNN the tete-a-tete was with none other than the leader the North Pole himself, Santa Claus.

“During the meeting, in a formal de marche, sung to the tune of ’12 Days of Christmas’…the secretary outlined her aspirations for the new year,” Crowley said, citing “open and accountable governments, Middle East negotiations, more civilians in Afghanistan, empowerment of women, fewer nuclear weapons, respect for human rights, resolution of historic grievances, treaties through the United States Senate, six-party talks, dialogue with Iran, enough food for people of the world to eat, climate change legislation and, lastly, a championship for the Boston Red Sox.”

    Yeah, breaking into houses and killing little children while they sleep.

    And don’t get me started on that socialist milk and cookies thing!

    Maybe Santa can help the administration get Netanyahu and Abbas together?

    I’m definitely in favor of the part about the Boston Red Sox although given Hillary was Senator from NY, I think PJ Crowley just through that in.

    Hillary can do what she wants, but only La Palin can stop Santa from rearing his head at America.

    Uh-oh. Looks like Santa left a big ol’ lump of coal for our favorite Dow watcher!
