4. It would be funny if it weren't so tragic.

We need some real diplomats now to handle what is going on. That woman is not capable of being a diplomat. If anyone was out of her element it's Condi attempting to broker a peace between two nations she knows really very little about.

Her Nancy Reagan remark to the effect that Hezbollah know what they need to do, smacks of Nancy's, "just say no to drugs."

"Hey there you mean terrorists, just say no to violence. You know what to do."

6. Last week Condi would not "shuttle" to the middle-east because
...as she made very clear in her press briefing, "....there is nowhere to shuttle to." Now, the news is that Condi is "rushing" to the middle east, so I suppose she now has places to "shuttle" to. Isn't a rushed shuttle a "shuffle"?

7. Well, she had to get a few things for her trip first...
like new shoes...she's gotta have new shoes...the walking conditions over there are simply dreadful! And of course, she couldn't go until after Bush's appearance before the NAACP - he's terrified of all those intelligent people in the audience, who know first hand what his irresponsible policies have done, and are smart enough to know bullshit when they see and hear it, so he needed someone there to back him up...

8. Rushing? - Going on day one or two of the conflict would be rushing
I would even consider anything in the first five days "rushing"

But after the conflict has escalated to this level? That is negligent.

11. She announced last week she'd go when it was "appropriate".
I guess a certain amount of damage has to be inflicted before she can "rush" over and inflict more.
