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:


Rice acknowledged Sunday that the White House was receiving a "steady stream of quite alarmist reports of potential attacks" during daily meetings from Tenet during that period. But she said the targets were assumed to be in the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Israel and Jordan. She said no reports mentioned the United States.

"What I am quite certain of, however, is that I would remember if I was told -- as this account apparently says -- that there was about to be an attack in the United States. The idea that I would somehow have ignored that I find incomprehensible," she told reporters.

Rice said her staff is now going back to check if there even was a meeting on July 10, 2001.

2. Did someone impugn here integrity again?

Remember her saying that when she was questioned by the committee about 9/11?

She's disgusting.
