Could Condi Have Helped?
This from <http://www.zompist.com/rants05.html>:

Condoleeza Rice spent Thursday seeing a Broadway show, playing tennis, and spending several thousand dollars on shoes. When a fellow shopper berated her for her callousness, Rice had her evicted from the store.

What could a Secretary of State do during such a crisis? Well, how about handling snafus like this: Canada has emergency supplies ready to ship, including emergency water purifiers— but can't get permission to enter the country.

Or maybe she could expedite the aid offered by Belgium, Canada, Russia, Japan, France, Germany, Britain, China, Australia, Jamaica, Honduras, Greece, Venezuela, the Organization of American States (i.e. everyone in Latin America), NATO (i.e., everyone in Europe), the Netherlands, Switzerland, Greece, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Mexico, South Korea, Israel, Sri Lanka, Qatar, Iran and the United Arab Emirates.

5. Maybe she could have gone to Washington, knowing there
was an impeding crisis, to see what could be done. It would have kept her out of the public eye too. Shopping, playing tennis and going to Broadway, just highlighted what a self-involved and callous person she is as well of the rest of the administration.
