Let''s see. Here''s a woman who was National Security Advisor during 911 - when there was plenty of intelligence but she decided not to do anything with it.
And then with all her wisdom that is supposed to come with a Ph.D., she was all behind the invasion of Iraq.

Now she call Israel and Palestine a better place? Is she awake?

The only legacy this piece of work deserves is a prison cell - right next to Bush''s.

At least Condoleezza Rice was only incompetent and not all that corrupt. The only corruption she was involved in was at the corporate level, like stealing oil from foreign nations and giving it to the big oil companies, diverting public funds to companies such as Halliburton and Blackwater, taking land from Palestinians and giving it to Israelis. The new Secretary of State will follow all those same agendas and add a whole new dimension. We will see secret private funds held in offshore bank accounts, White Water type investment schemes for International Charity Organisations, Chicago style favors for money scams and personal bribes. Hillary will do the favors and Bill will take the bribes. Hillary Clinton will add the new element of sleaze to Secretary of State. We will look back on the incompetence of Condo Rice as the good old days.

A senior foreign policy analyst who has known Rice for many years and who thought she would be really good in this job, is disappointed. "There is no purposefulness to her efforts. There is no follow up," he says. "She is very talented, highly driven, but there is no follow through." Rice and her supporters of course disagree with such assessments.
-------------------------------------

Rice failed as NSA and as SecState miserably. Her role was exactly as Donald Trump described it. One photo-op after another. When she could have made a difference in regards to the invasion of Iraq and torture, she not only stood silent but concurred with the neocoms. I frankly do not understand how Standford faculty and student body can accept her back.

"I%u2019m so gratified that we are leaving a much better situation on Israeli-Palestinian issues than we found," Rice said in her interview with CBS Radio News.

Seriously. How could Condoleezza Rice have any other stance than besides seeing the glass half full? She worked in an administration that fired you if you said, "There aren''t weapons of mass destruction." This is why Colin Powell stepped down, cause he new that America was getting hood-winked by the Bush Administration.

Condoleezza Rice is a "Wolf", A "Wolf" should not be Secretary of State! Colin Powell should not have been Secretary of State either! This is why I don''t think Hillary Clinton should be Secretary of State, Clinton is a closet "Wolf" too! The U.S. doesn''t need a "Sheep" in the job but it definitely doesn''t need a "Wolf". lol
