OK, when does the exodus begin at the State Department?

1. I don't think so.

Rice is completely overmatched by the State Dept.'s career diplomats. She is just a bump in the road to them. A joke. And a washed up one soon enough.

2. Nope. It's the State Department itself turning into a bump in the road.

The Pentagon will take the reigns of foreign policy - ie- Rummy& PNAC

[gristy]

3. Well, maybe...

I was thinking about the Rice confirmation when the question was posed. I thought the big turf encroachment story was about the Pentagon getting into the CIA's business. What's this about them taking over the State Dept?

4. Not an answer but funny.
