Does Hillary Clinton Need Some Anger Management Training?

Mrs. Clinton’s recent out-bursts of anger at a poignant question raised by an innocent but inquisitive University Student from The Democratic Republic of the Congo was unfortunate.

There is no doubt on my mind that Hillary Clinton is the “Golden Girl” of the Obama Administration in very many dimensions. Firstly, as someone who posed the greatest challenge to the Obama campaign in the primaries, she is self conscious of her clout as a political heavy weight purely on her own merit, not her marriage connections. Secondly, in my own judgment, within just this short period in office, she has made her indelible mark on world politics, pushing the American foreign policy agenda to the furthest ends of the world.

I don’t quite remember any Foreign Secretary who has come close to trotting the whole world as extensively as Hillary Clinton has done in the first 6 months of assuming the office of Foreign Secretary of the United States America. She has literally been everywhere, but the more she assumes this very significant position of responsibility, the more you begin to see clearly her poor anger management antics.

We all recall the responses and fairly ugly exchanges she had with the North Korean leaders on her tour of East Asia recently. In my view, she probably needed to be less affected by the silly remarks of the Pariah authorities in Pyongyang. Her responses in fairly equal measure of anger took a little bit of her diplomatic skills and made her look somewhat, quarrelsome, which unfortunately played into the hands of the North Korean dictators.

When she visited Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo early this month and had some interaction with University Students, her response to a question as to whether or not, she gets advise from her husband Bill Clinton sparked off some unexpected bout of anger from the former first Lady. In my view, as the wife of a man of such high stature as Bill Clinton, admitting to the fact she gets such advise would not in any mean she is inept, to the contrary, it would add more to her Clout because, not anybody can be the wife of such a great leader! This barrage of anger on the poor student who asked the question was very unfortunate. It made me wonder whether the American Foreign Secretary needs some Anger Management Training, possibly she does.

    Very thoughtful thoughts about Hillary. Well written. I hope it was another rare moment where she might have let her “self”
    get in the way. I imagine she’s pretty tired of some of the smart
    ass reporters around her. Still……

    Hillary’s star is fading away. She gets older and more dysfuctional as time passes by. America is getting tired of the Clintons. But still, Hillary is 100% better than Obama.
    We need fresh and new women faces with new and dynamic ideas.
