Susan Rice is like Anita Hill before her.

A black woman got to Washington only to learn she was out of her depth, out of her league, unable to keep up with demands place upon her. Obama’s blackness in hiring is part of his undoing. They just aren’t up to snuff

AA for AA’s doesn’t always produce positive results

Color before capability!

I, for one, am sick of it.

Affirmative Action in DC has been a fact of life in DC forever.
I visited DC many times both before and after Obungo, and the number of black privilege jobs (welfare on the sly) was evident everywhere, but restrained.

After Obungo moved in it had drifted, both in appearance and competence, into an almost totally African country, complete with administrative chaos and confusion. We can cover crime and its non disclosure, some other time, both in government and in the DC culture generally.

Ex-Defense Secy Hagel said Susan Rice frequently convened unproductive, long-winded meetings that went on for hours without accomplishing anything. Tough decisions were frequently put off ..... as if vexing national security issues affecting the nation would somehow resolve themselve.

Even more disturbing, Rice frequently subjected the Pentagon to unwarranted meddling. Dennis Ross noted that Susan Rice had needlessly exacerbated difficult situations and was largely responsible for increasing tensions with close allies....even the beleaguered Israel.

The execrable Rice had the effrontery to tell the beleaguered Israel they could not criticize John Kerry.

....the consensus is that Susan Rice is a flawed and incompetent diplomat.....

Susan Rice was hand-picked by Obama to augment her resume. He took the know-nothing to China and on other diplomatic romps to credential her for a future job after she leaves his employ.

Rice is way out of her depth, out of her league, chosen only b/c she's black...giving Obama the opportunity Obama to show his utter contempt for the diplomatic professionals in earlier admins.

Interesting that a few weeks back, Josh Earnest forcefully told the media that Obama “didnt sign off on this." "This" was the drone attack that killed two---a doctor, an America hostage. There was a lot of talk by Earnest about ’s National Security Team assessing the “protocols” of this particular deadly drone attack.

Was that a hidden message? Was the Ntl Security imbecile who screwed-up the protocols that killed an American doctor...who signed off on the drone attack.....the resident WH moron Suzan Rice?
