"Despite the fact there are changes and tussles, there is still a foreign policy community that believes that foreign policy ought to be bipartisan," she said. "It was really great that he reached out in that way."

[StormEye]

"I bet she even voted for the SOB."

Ever wonder why the Bush II administration
wasn't as conservative as people expected?

[ColdOne]

She does have a good point!

[The Comedian]

Blackpartisanship.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

"A job offer perhaps??"

Interesting thought. Perhaps she's under consideration to replace Hillary or even Biden??

[oldbill]

There are actually Republicans who thought she was presidential material.

She was a most incompetent Secy of State.

When you look at the most recent Secretaries of State - Powell, Rice, Albright, Clinton, you have to say that incompetence is bipartisan.

[egannacht]

Asked to grade his foreign policy, she refused.

“I’ve said very many times that I may not agree with everything that the administration has done, but I also know that it’s a lot harder in there than it is out here,” she said.

“Nobody needs to have people who’ve been there chirping at you about what you’re not doing right, because you can’t possibly know the whole range of considerations on any given day unless you’re in.”

[egannacht]

She said a job offer was the furthest thing from the reason for the meeting.

Another whose book sales fell flat? Maybe the NFL Commissioner job will pan out.

“Blackpartisanship.”

I had about 5 or 6 insults for Rice running through my mind when I came to your post. I give up. I can’t top that... it WILL become a real word.

Black people simply cannot transcend their color.

I’m outraged. I didn’t read the article, or understand its context . . . I simply am outraged, and reacting to the headline.

[Iron Munro]

Compassionate Conservative racist meets Communist racist and discovers they like the same things.

At least this should put an end to those never ending posts explaining why Condi would be a super keen republican presdential candidate.

[TribalPrincess2U]

Condie for VP? Hillary probably turned him down...looking toward 2012.

0 is getting really desperate. It's got to be devastating to such a narcissistic azz to know he is going down. He'll probably start his own community war organization.

He has yet to finish dividing this country.

[Paradox]

Black people simply cannot transcend their color.

And Conservatives can't transcend their racism?

Your comment is certainly one of the dumber ones I've seen on FR in, oh, at least.. sadly, in only 48 hours or so....

[phobia-dude]

Another Powell?

[paul51]

rice has too much class to make too negative of a public comment about a sitting president’s policy. It’s not like she’s a clinton.

[TigersEye]

she said. "It was really great that he reached out in that way."

I missed it. In what way did 0baMao reach out?

[shiva]

She only did ‘cause he’s black.

[TigersEye]

"Nothing in this president's methods suggests this president is other than a defender of America's interests," Rice told an audience that included presidential adviser Valerie Jarrett.

It's one thing to be diplomatic and not criticize. It's quite another thing to ignore reality and give false praise.

I wonder if O is a Republican plant
