Rice Stands Firm in Senate Questioning

By ANNE GEARAN, AP Diplomatic Writer

WASHINGTON - Secretary of State nominee Condoleezza Rice (news - web sites) gave no ground in Senate confirmation questioning Tuesday, insisting the United States was fully prepared for the Iraq (news - web sites) war and its aftermath and refusing to give a timetable for U.S. troops to come home.

An American exit strategy depends on Iraq's ability to defend itself against terrorists after this month's elections, she said.

Rice seemed headed for easy confirmation by the Senate as President Bush (news - web sites)'s choice to be the country's top diplomat. She did have a tense exchange with Sen. Barbara Boxer (news, bio, voting record), D-Calif. — Rice repeatedly asked the senator not to question her truthfulness — but former presidential nominee John Kerry (news - web sites), D-Mass., was the only member of the Foreign Relations Committee who told her she might not win his vote.

1. thats awesome

He's the only one who tells her she may not get his vote and they're giving him hell, :eyes: in GD, stupid dinguses.

2. Please let it be true

Please let him not vote for her

[JohnKleeb]

It would also be good if he investigates her too.

4. Wonder how many of the shitbrained lefty freepers

Would publicly apologize for their idiocy if he votes no?

My guess? ZERO.

[GRLMGC]

5. Oh for sure

but they're dumbfucks anyway so I don't really take their opinions seriously

[Firespirit]

6. What? What??

You're telling me that this DINO, DLC Skull & Bones yellowbellied flip-flopper has threatened to do this?

I'm having an overload now; this does not compute.

::end "lefty freeper" sarcasm::

:D

7. the difference between a

lefty freeper and a righty freeper: NOT MUCH!! :eyes:

[Firespirit]

9. Unless you happened to learn their opinion of Bush,

You'd have to see their eyes to tell the difference sometimes.

Righty freepers tend to have crossed eyes. :evilgrin:

8. What if Boxer votes for her.

What will some of the folk do then?

I don't want to see folks crushed, but some have crowned her Saint Babs. She's a neat lady, but let's be real, you know?

[GRLMGC]

10. I'm hoping she doesn't

It would be a kick in the ass for those who have put all their hopes in her but I really hope she doesn't

[elshiva]

11. Neither Boxer, Kerry, or Sarbanes will support her

from what I heard on the radio today. Good going senators. Too bad so many daggone repubs!
