Please tell me what Condi Rice has done to deserve another job |
|
in this administration?
She was a piss poor NSA.
After her pitiful performance, I wouldn't want her to be dog catcher.

4. It's not easy to get good help |
|
And she's sucked longer and harder and in all the right places, so she deserves it.
We do so love our help, Barbara Bush might have said.

18. No, the Peter Principle says you rise to your level of incompetence |
|
and that level for her was at a minimum the NSA position.
I think the report was labeled "Osama plans to attack the United States" or something like that. Condi Rice testimony

Literally or figuratively. Really, why are people still expecting that people will be promoted in this regime based on competence, or a positive record of achievement?
She's being rewarded for services rendered to the regime, and nothing less.

13. George W. Bush 'Help Wanted Ad' |
|
"I need a new Secretary of State". Brains not needed. Color of skin not important. Work experience: let's talk.
A sheepskin would be nice, if only for image.
Qualities needed for the job: LOYALTY. Nothing else. You don't need to be smart. Certainly not a smart-mouth, not in my office.
Just look good, shut up and do as I say. Got it?

15. SOS IS dog catcher in this administration |
|
They don't do diplomacy, why do they even need a SOS? They sucked Powell dry of any credibility he or nation had left. Why not put the most incompetent person in the administration in charge of the Department that does the least?
The world laughs at Condi Rice: its bush*s way of saying f**k you to the world...

16. Well she is an expert on the Soviet Union. That's got to impress Bush. |
|
Plus, she knows football. So she has Bush wrapped around her little finger. But I have to wonder whether Bush will let her travel internationally without him.

Duties and Responsibilities of the National Security Adviser to George W. Bush:
- The incumbent National Security Adviser (NSA) will not be a part of the reality-based community. At the Direction of George W. Bush, the NSA must not concern themself with the facts. They must only promote the Bush agenda, no matter what the facts on the ground tell them.
- If the counter-terrorism official informs the NSA that they need an urgent meeting with George Bush, the NSA must not make that meeting happen. Why bother yourself with national security, when you can spend more time on the phone with Bob Jones, James Dobson, and Dick Armey?
- The NSA is directed by George W. Bush to not cooperate at all with the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon The United States. Any cooperation with this Commission will be viewed as disloyalty to the President.
- Other duties as assigned: Glossing over any memos warning of OBL's desire to attack America, being so far up the President's behind that you aren't any earthly good.
This Job description will be good from January 20, 2005 to January 20, 2009.

I have an idea everyone. I cannot do this, since I'm a Washington, DC resident and we don't have full representation in the United States Senate. So I have no Senator to contact.
But I ask each of you to write both of your Senators, and ask them to either vote down the nominations of Condi Rice and Alberto Gonzalez, or conduct a filibuster to kill the nominations. And also, please ask at least 10 of your friends to do likewise. The U.S. Senators need to hear from their constituents.
Also, it will let the Bushies know that we won't be silent. When you and your friends write your Senators, tell them that the U.S. Senate is OBLIGATED to conduct checks and balances on the executive branch. They are not to be rubber stamps for Presidential nominees.
Again, please write to your Senators to oppose these nominations, and ask at least 10 of your friends to do the same. And ask your friends to ask their friends. Blow up the emails and fax machines of the US Senate.

do is look at GWB to figure that one out. How more fitting than to reward someone for doing a terrible job by giving them a promotion and a raise. This is the new GWB way of doing business, hasn't this been his own history?

39. Shd stopped teaching 13-year olds to murder Beethoven... |
|
Condi entered the University of Denver at 15, aiming to become a pianist. She studied one summer at the famous music camp in Aspen — "affirmative action for Colorado kids," she says. Midway through college, however, she came to the sad realization that she would not "make it" as a pianist. She did not want to become an accompanist, and she did not want "to teach 13-year-olds to murder Beethoven."
---- From “Star in Waiting: Meet George W.’s Foreign Policy Czarina“:: Jay Nordlinger, National Review, August 30, 1999 http://www.viewsunplugged.com/VU/20040504/reflection_condiRice.shtmlAs a musician myself, I think that's significant, but as preparation for Secretary of State? I don't know...:freak:
