2. WJ caller said "Send a man like Colin Powell not Minnie Mouse!"

A viewer on Washington Journal called Condoho Minnie Mouse. They said that she is totally in over her head and is not capable of negotiating with her attitude. The viewer said we should send in a man to do the job, a man like Colin Powell.

The viewer said, "What are they going to see when she gets there? They are going to see Minnie Mouse!"

6. Why don't they just send Cheney to tell everyone to "go fuck yourself"?

Condi won't speak with any "non-allies" and when Saudia Arabia expressed their opinion were told basically to fuck off. He Beruit visit was to say "stop it, gotta run".
