Condi's list of accomplishments since 2001

[DoYouEverWonder]

As national security adviser, before 9/11, Rice protected Bush from warnings by the counter-terrorism chief, Richard Clarke, about al-Qaida attacks - and demoted Clarke. Before the invasion of Iraq, she lent her imprimatur to the disinformation about Saddam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction and peddled it to the media. She did not demand an Iraq postwar stabilization plan. Nor did she object to the Pentagon's seizure of Iraq's civil governance responsibilities from the state department. Before Israel's attack on Lebanon, she did not caution against the possibility of Israeli failure against Hizbullah. She was party to the decision to lend full war materiel and intelligence support to the effort if Israel would undertake it.

Why is this dismal failure still in charge of anything, no less the State Dept?

1. She should get in line behind Rumsfeld. They're both/all disgraces. nt

4. Traitors

is more like it.

They have done more damage to our country then Usama could have ever imagined.

[waiting for hope]

2. Bush surrounds himself

with people that are only going to tell him what he wants to hear - Condi fits that bill perfectly.

[underpants]

3. Well you know she was quite the accomplished ice skater in her youth

she won many awards you know....in ice skating...in Alabama....female ice skating compeititions...BLACK female ice skating competitions in the early to mid 60's....in Alabama.....

:silly:

oh yeah and her father was opposed to Dr.King and the Civil Rights movement so factor that into how she attained her position in the Republican party and with their friends in business.

5. K & R Reading whole article now.

This looks like a must read. Condi is a strong point in *'s admin with high approval levels. And she is incompetent and culpable.

Article looks fabulous. Like

"Like his other female enablers - Karen Hughes, his political image-maker and undersecretary of state for public diplomacy, and Harriet Miers, his legal counsel - Rice is ferociously protective. She shields him from worst-case scenarios, telling him to ignore criticism, and showers him with flattery that he is a world-historical colossus." OUCH!

6. I bet she does lots of other things too

Anything to keep her master happy you know.

[dipsydoodle]

7. That remark just

blows me away - * too I guess. One of my pals in Totonto asked me jsut this morning "is it true he only ever eats brown rice"

[Double T]

8. Condi accomplished what?????

..........all I hear are crickets in the background.

9. K&R. * sure can pick 'em...

Don't forget the "torture guy" in the highest legal office in the land, the hothead who thinks the U.N. is irrelevant as our top diplomat and someone who never served in the military heading up DoD. Yup, * is "the decider," all right...:eyes:
