Rice plays the indignation card again (and again and again)

What's worse than someone who responds to all criticism with indignation that verges on a tantrum? Someone who does that and gets her facts wrong. That's our secretary of state, Condoleezza Rice. I wrote recently about how she sees herself as a "true believer." Unfortunately, what we could have used over the last five years was a true thinker as national security adviser and in her current position.

The latest, of course, is her indignation that anybody could suggest that she didn't pay enough attention to warnings that al Qaeda was intent on attacking on US soil before 9/11...

After watching her for years, it's easy to see the pattern: when something goes wrong on her watch, she looks for someone to blame, and makes things up to support it... complete with an indignant complaint that people are impugning her integrity.

This isn't what we should expect from a secretary of state. This is behavior better suited to a petulant sixth-grader who's been caught not doing her homework and is looking for a convenient dog to accuse of eating it.

2. Just submitted an LTTE on Rice

I said she is either the most incompetent person to ever head NSA or State, or she is guilty of perjury before the 9/11 commission...

7. there is a Business saying: "A people hire A people"

"B people hire C people"

Ms. Rice is the answer to the question "Who do C people hire?"

6. She's to young

to be going through the change so that can't be making her humpy. Is she suffering from morning sickness ?

9. "petulant sixth-grader who's been caught not doing her homework "

Ah such a correct description of the amateur recital giving Ms Rice. it would be funny if she were not complicit in the deaths of hundreds of thousands. As it is she is about as funny and cute as any of the murderous fascist females from the 3rd Reich.

I want every last one of them, and all of their supporters and enablers, held accountible for their actions, tried and punished in accordance with the laws of human civilization on this planet.

10. Ms Rice is incompetent. She is also a seriel liar.

“You can’t allow somebody to commit the crime before you detain them, because if they commit the crime, thousands of innocent people die.” Condoleezza Rice

She also has a Police State mentality.
