I don’t think I’ll ever get over or even understand how Obama destroyed the Clinton political machine. The manner in which he neutered both Bill and Hillary was definitely something for the history books. Sending her constantly around the world far away from domestic politics under the guise of Secretary of State was brilliant on his part. He just kept her busy playing Secretary while he assembled a team to do the real work.

People use the excuse that the world is so complicated, that we needed all of these foreign political agents like Kerry and Holbrooke to be dispatched across the globe. In truth these people are the real secretaries of state [lowercase] for each region of the world. They do not answer to Hillary in any way and as time goes by, the brilliance of what Obama did to Hillary is succinct. She was put on what is called “diesel therapy.”

Diesel Therapy is the term that the Department of the Bureau of Prisons uses when, for punishment, they will put a prisoner on a bus to nowhere. The bus just keeps traveling around the country from prison to prison with no final destination. The person being punished is never dropped off at one spot, but held, shackled, on the bus and sent around on some senseless merry go round of jails and prisons. It is the drama of never having a home or sense of peace. It is the fatigue that sets in when this laborious travel has no end. It is what is called in the federal system “diesel therapy.”

This is what has happened to Hillary Clinton. You can see the travel taking hold on her face. She looks older every month that passes. You can feel just beneath the surface that burning frustration, that it is not her at the helm of foreign policy. Being dispatched to do town hall meetings in Pakistan is beneath the office of the Secretary of State. She wants to be a team player and loyal.

At the same time she flies around the world from one place to the next, while her life long passion rages on without her. Health care defines the body of work that embodies her whole life, but she is kept far from it. While on Obama’s Diesel Therapy, she is rendered powerless to the greatest domestic debate of her professional lifetime. She holds no power out there bouncing from place to place and the world’s greatest nutcracker has been rendered edentulous.

The Clinton Political Machine was devastated by some unknown political upstart from Chicago. How did he do that? How did he silence the Clintons to this degree? How did he crack the biggest nut of them all in the Democrat Party? When she apperceives the whole concept of diesel therapy, it will be a different kind of therapy that Hillary will need. It will be found on the couch of some high dollar psychiatrist.
