I got to thinking yesterday and wondered what Albright had to say when she was appointed in '96 compared to what Dr. Rice said yesterday.

I figured some other FReepers might like to read both so I tracked them down and here they are.

This stuck out to me yesterday.

Mr. President, it is an honor to be asked to serve your administration and my country once again.

OXEN, did you by any chance hear the really nasty things Savage was saying about Dr. Rice yesterday? It was disgusting, demeaning and scandalous, IMO. I think he's lost me forever now.

I stopped listening to Savage about a year ago.

He was saying that she is totally unqualified for the job, she should go back to teaching school, blah blah blah. I couldn't listen to very much of it, it made me that angry.

He was playing the tape of this speech and screeching about how she didn't say anything, it was a prepared speech, etc. I'm done with him now.

"...she didn't say anything, it was a prepared speech."

I don't listen to Michael Savage and, if this is his attempt at wisdom, I see I missed nothing.

He's jealous *LOL* Jealousy is such a terrible thing. Ugliness goes to the bone, and his case quite literally I might add.

I listened to Savage for just a few minutes last night and was wondering what he was smoking. Trashing such a fine American as Condi Rice was way out of line. Seems Mr. Savage is just trying to be another "shock jock".

Rice first studied international relations under Joseph Korbel at the University of Denver.

Joseph Korbel was Madeline Albright's father.

He was saying that she is totally unqualified for the job...

What was the basis of his argument? Had he even READ her CV? Oh, wait. I'm asking for a rational answer. Never mind.

Albright sounds like she did a Hally Barry accepting an Oscar.

And in a month he will be praising her as the greatest Sec of State in American history. Then if something happens the Savage doesn't like (or understand) he'll go back to telling us how he was the first to trash Rice.

I enjoy listening to Savage in the evening if I'm doing woodworking or reloading ammo but consistency is not one of his virtues.

Thanks for going through the trouble to research this. Actually, the speech by the hapless Madeline Halfbright was pretty good, with the one exception of thinking that "our homes were no longer targeted."
