WASHINGTON (Official Wire) — Hillary Rodham Clinton formally resigned Friday as America’s 67th secretary of state, capping a four-year tenure that saw her shatter records for the number of countries visited.
In a letter sent to President Barack Obama shortly before she was to leave the State Department for the last time in her official capacity, Clinton thanked her former foe for the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination for the opportunity to serve in his administration. Clinton said it had been an honor to be part of his Cabinet.
“I am more convinced than ever in the strength and staying power of America’s global leadership and our capacity to be a force for good in the world,” she said in the letter.
Her resignation will be effective on the swearing-in of her successor, John Kerry, who was to take the oath of office in a private ceremony later Friday.
Clinton pushed through a throng of American foreign service workers who clamored for handshakes and smartphone photos with her and gave an emotional goodbye speech.

What difference does it make?
” Shatter the number of countries she visited ” , and how much she cost us to let her ” shatter ” that record . Let’s not forget that she ” was the leader that got the gay’s their rights ” , ( like we wanted their marriage ) . Actually , when it comes to what she did for OUR country , she didn’t do anything . She didn’t answer of what happened in Libya , that cost 4 Americans their lives . Over 3 months later , they , meaning King Hussein and his Adm. , haven’t even has a clue who did that attack , no one was arrested . Yet she acts like she did something in the last 4 years .
Oh! well, another liar, thief, killer of the obama regime resigns and another liar, thief, killer, John Kerry, will take her place. Benedict Arnold was just a piker compared to these traitors.
A.M.F. don’t let the door hit you in the ass. Now we can look forward to the incessant droning of Herman Munster as he bore the world’s heads of state.
Blah, blah, blah. She and her husband are the ones who started the birther movement.
her little placard says, “honorable hillary rodham clinton”. That’s funny since she was so DIS-honorable!
GOOD RIDANCE. NOW ANOTHER O’VOMIT COCK ROACH WILL SIMPLY REPLACE IT..NAMELY KERRY. sO IT CAN GET READY TO RUN FOR THE PRESIDENCY AGAIN
Thank God this hag harridan is gone. Useless pos she was. But now we have “Lurch” (from the Addams Family). He’s going to be another bargain!
If we had a REAL president in office other than this usurper, Hillary would never have been placed into such a critical and important position. Unfortunately we did not, nor do we now, have a real president in the White House, so we can expect things to get a whole lot worse, before they get any better, if ever in this country.
The reason he made Hillaty SOS is to keep away form him. Remember Bill and Hillary are the one who brought up about him not being born in the US and not eligibile to be POTUS. As I have said before Obama has the money and power backing him so all he has to do is what he is told. I believe he will remain in charge until his big money string pulling puppet masters are finished with him then he will somehow be eliminated. Due to voter fraud placing Obama in office 2 times I am sure the Democrats will take control of Congress after the 2014 elections. Then Obama will appoint his Supreme Court Justices and that will be the last nail in America’s coffin. I do not think anything or anyone can stop the Obama machine. I also believe the only reason he is sending planes and tanks to the Middle East is to help wipe Israel off the map. The US will be next.
If she were such a GOOD leader while Sect of State… why didn’t she KNOW why her underling, whoever it was tell her of the trouble in Bengahez…. When she was asked why she didnt tell Obama… she said SHE wasn’t TOLD about it…. Lie No. 1. If she’s that lackluster in her job… she should have resigned right off… She knew what was going on.. and told Obama… too.. but they BOTH lied… Lying seems to be their choice of words they love to use..and If She DIDN”T know… Obama should have FIRED her which was much more serious to this country than Petraeus having an affair.. who was forced to resign… Only goes to show you … the depth of their lying.. Neither couldnt be caught of lying about Bengahez… so they covered for each other…therefore it was pushed back in the closet.. with no one answering any questions about four men dying needlessly. Only goes to show you the depth of seriousness of sympathy for those men. CYA.. is Obama’s and Hillary’s motto..and God help us all if she’s nominated to the Supreme Court.
Her presence made Obama look good…
