M. Albright:"Iraqi Invasion May End Up-Worst Disaster-US Foreign Policy"
'NYT' Sunday Preview: Madeleine Albright Can Leg-Press 400 Pounds

Another highlight of the Q & A is her commentary on the fact that her father, Josef Korbel, a Czech diplomat who became dean of the school of international relations at the University of Denver, happened to train two future secretaries of state. The other was Condoleezza Rice. "What I like about her," Albright says, "is that she continues to give credit to the fact that my father had a big influence on her."

When Korbel died in 1977, Rice sent a pot of flowers in the shape of a piano, and Albright's mother referred to her as "your father's favorite student."

Nowadays Albright is not a fan of certain aspects of Rice's work. She declares that the Iraq invasion "may end up being one of the worst disasters in American foreign policy."

3. Geez, if Rice gave my dad credit as an influence
I'd probably burrow into a hole and never come out.
I wouldn't call Iraq the worst until Bush is gone and they can't possibly do anything else.
