OUR STATE DEPARTMENT IN ACTION - AT 2:52 P.M. ET:  We can all use a good laugh on a Friday afternoon.  Our government supplies it. 

Reader John Harris alerts us to this quote from a State Department take-a-bow report on the first 100 days of Obamism: 

Secretary Clinton is already the most traveled Secretary of State in a new Administration. The Secretary’s trips have included her inaugural trip to Asia, the Middle East and Europe, Mexico and across the border to Texas, the Hague in the Netherlands, Europe with President Obama, Haiti and the Dominican Republic, the Summit of the Americas in Trinidad and Tobago with President Obama, and to Iraq and Kuwait.

COMMENT:  That travel to Texas was especially tough, especially with the language barrier.
