It's funny, all I hear from the right is how great Condi is, yet no mention of WHY she's a good choice. At least we on the left have our own list of complaints and reasons why this woman should not be given this position.

Perhaps you should read this thread again before you go off making yourself look like a fool again.

Oh my god she lied! Wow, does that not qualify her not be secertary of state? Its not like the Sec of State does anything anyway...

In your own words what did Condi do that disqualifies her from Sec of State. (Kerry lied about stuff too, but he certainly qualified enough to president)

Great at doing nothing.

Condi is useless!

Just another puppet.
I think she's great. :p You guys have your opinion and I have mine. She's one smart woman.
Yeah, it takes a *lot* of intelligence to fail miserably at one's job and even flat-out lie to a Congressional Committee reviewing the failures that led to 9/11 (including the failures of said person) for four years and land a gig like Sec'y of State afterward.

Easy now.

They're all Liars but we are stuck with them for 4 more years.

I know it's "hard work' but have to get used to it just like they will work Saturdays if need be to Lie more.

Conjur -- why do you have to take stupid cheap shots like that? if you disagree with her politics, fine, but that's just stupid, and it makes you look bad.

What???

You FLL's aren't proud of sleeziness of Condi and the Regime??? :confused:

I thought this would give the FLL's a woody.

I call them like I see them. She lied to the 9/11 Commission. No wonder she didn't want to "testify" under oath.

Then she whores it up for her "husband" Bush on the campaign trail like no other NSA has ever done.

Not to mention her being completely incompetent in her position.

:roll: Do you really expect anyone to take you seriously after throwing that turd out here? - especially after you antics in the Marine vid clip threads?

Draft = FUD. Been proven to be FUD - yet you and other fringe leftists keep plopping that turd.

You've lost it. Earlier tonight I just figured you marbles had come loose - but it's clear now that they've scattered and you haven't realized it yet.

No, I have it all. I understand it all. I see it all happening and it's not healthy for our nation one bit.

Thank you George W. Bush for picking someone who will tell France and others to go stick it in their ears!

Not quite. I may, though, to those unwilling to accept the truth and accept they've been wrong in their judgment of a failed President.

I accepted the fact that I was wrongly supporting the President. I was man enough to admit I was wrong once I discovered what was not being told to the American public by this administration.

Too bad many others aren't as willing to accept the challenge to their own opinions.

Conjur I am curious as to whom you would have "approved" of in such a capacity?? I know on the afternoon talk show (Jay Severin) he mentioned that someone had the gall to suggest William Jefferson Clinton for said slot...now that made me laugh.

But all kidding aside, who would you suggest? who would you not have found fault with?...personally I can understand Bush's motives for going with Dr. Rice and I can also understand why he wouldn't want to pander to the wishes of the left by putting someone seen as more moderate in said position, it is all about loyalty....

anxiously awaiting your response.

So Bush appoints a leading neocon to lead the Bush foreign policy in it's fight of WWIV. What happens if the rest of the world finally starts to join the fun?

Conjur is completely right. This move confirms the unilateral position of the US and is a clear sign that the US now sees itself as King of the Hill.

Make Wolfowitz Secretary of Defense and Bolton, or some other neocon, NSA. The world will take notice for sure.

Bush said he would "reach out", eh?

Sen. Biden or Gen. Clark would have each made an excellent Sec'y of State. Biden's experience on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee would make him a shoe-in. His moderate views and straight-shooting mentality would appeal to conservatives, too. I've long respected him. I consider him about an equal to John McCain. Well, McCain before he entered full-bore Bush-whore mode for the campaign.

Other options?

Danforth may be good in that position but I'm unsure of how much he may lean toward being an Evangelical, which wouldn't be a good idea to send out as our Sec'y of State.

Hell, bring back Scowcroft or Baker. I know they're getting up in age but either would be a far cry better than Rice.

Hell, my left nut would be a better Sec'y of State than Rice!

It's the civilians in Iraq and our troops in Iraq that I'm concerned with. Also, the great potential for another invasion of yet another country and more and more war.

I'm also concerned for our environment with regulations being gutted like no other administration has done before.

I'm also concerned for our economy with ill-advised tax cuts being hailed as the greatest achievement since Roosevelt's New Deal.
