2. But she has traveled all over the world at the expense of the US |
|
and she has done absolutely nothing. That alone is an accomplishment.

It's relatively easy for the right to brush off failed diplomacy as the other parties problem ("We tried jaw, jaw but they want war, war."), whereas a very strong case can be made that Bush/Cheney systematically ignored the most serious trouble spots in the world in favour of Iraq (and in the case of India/Pakistan made the problem worse by fucking up Afghanistan, ending sanctions, selling them arms & promising to break the NPT). Ditto completely walking away from the peace process in the middle east.

4. As part of the bu$h regime would you expect anything less than failure |
|
The whole regime has failure tagged to everything they have done. With one exception... Stealing elections

5. In her defense Condi's not the decider. |
|
You might as well demand the whole Bush administration resign.

6. And replace her with who? |
|
May I remind you that just when you think no one could be this bad,Bush replaces them with someone even worse. Tom DeLay perhaps....remember that money,not qualifications , make this white house work.

8. She's doing EXACTLY what they want... |
|
She's NOT a failure, but a rousing success! She is doing a PERFECT job of carrying out the NeoCon agenda. Everything is right on track.
The agenda is to destroy government and privatize everything. Kill as many people in the world as possible before they leave office. Fuck everything up royally so that the corporations and those left with money can step in and buy up everything at firesale prices. Privatize as many government services as possible. Corporate control over state functions and the elimination of anything that isn't profitable for them.
When you look at their actions through these blood-colored glasses, everything they do makes sense!

13. She is just the messenger |
|
Perhaps a poor one, but just the messenger. She can do no more than follow what her bosses tell her to do. I don't think much of her or them, but I don't think you can blame the failed policies entirely on her.

14. Enablers Are Not Exempt From Oaths |
|
and she took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution. If she can't do it, she is foresworn, and should either quit, or be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. As should all of this crime family.

10. "Diplomacy" isn't in her dictionary or Bush's either |
|
The only thing they understand is lying and bully tactics. Diplomacy? What's that?

17. I fail to see the point |
|
Why in diplomacy do we demand that the country we are dealing with (North Korea, Iran) give up their weapons before we can talk to them. Like that is going to happen. It is like a kid who says I am not going to school until you give me some candy. Is the mother supposed to give in. This is a stupid way of conducting diplomatic talks & needs to be replaced by adult thinking government officials. The Bush administration has not shown that level of maturity so the nations that are causing problems are not going to co-operate.
