Rice’s Speech to Boston Grads Contained a Disconnect From Action
Edited on Tue May-23-06 07:10 AM by Montagnard
"There is nothing wrong with holding an opinion and holding it passionately," Dr. Rice said. "But at those times you're absolutely sure that you are right, go find somebody who disagrees. Don't allow yourself the easy course of the constant 'Amen' to everything you say."


That coming from someone who has engaged for the last five years in group think and as yes-man to the most egocentric human on the planet goes beyond being hyperbolic.


You have to wonder if she ever passed that gem on to Bush.
