Urbangrounds blog makes some good points about those two.

Remember back when Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton were competing in the Democrat primary? And Obama claimed that his foreign policy experience was superior to that of Hillary by virtue of him having “lived abroad” when he was a child?
He said his “life experience” gave him a better feel for international issues than most candidates gain from official trips to other nations:
“Probably the strongest experience I have in foreign relations is the fact I spent four years overseas when I was a child in Southeast Asia,” Obama said.
And what did Hillary have to say about that?
Voters will have to judge if living in a foreign country at the age of 10 prepares one to face the big, complex international challenges the next president will face.
And what did Barack have to say about Hillary’s foreign policy experience?
Obama said that Clinton’s foreign policy experience consisted of “having tea in foreign countries.”
Which of course now makes her qualified to be Obama’s Secretary of State.
Brilliant choice, Barry. Brilliant. Unless of course your choice is actually to disarm Hillary by removing her from the Senate…
