BO Waffles on Mrs. Clinton's Credentials

President-elect BO has designated the wife of former president Bill Clinton to be his secretary of state.  This is quite a waffle considering BO spent much of the previous two years questioning her foreign-policy credentials.

BO claimed that she didn't possess the necessary foreign policy experience to be president.  Here's a quote he made during a campaign event last March in Texas:
“What exactly is this foreign policy expertise? Was she negotiating treaties? Was she handling crises? The answer is no.”
Now, BO says his new foreign policy team, which will be led by Mrs. Bill Clinton, would change America’s foreign policy for the better.  He told reporters:
“I am confident that this is the team that we need to make a new beginning for American national security,”
BO had said exactly the opposite view of Bill Clinton's wife during the primary campaign.
