So have her fellow Neocons ousted Condi?
Is her resignation imminent? Her absence and silence are deafening.

2. Forbes: Merkel Overtakes Rice as Most Powerful Woman

German Chancellor Angela Merkel has overtaken US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice as the world's most powerful woman, according to a Forbes Magazine list published Thursday.

This time last year, Germany's first female chancellor was riding high in opinion polls as leader of the then-opposition conservative Christian Union but did not even feature in the ranks of Forbes's top 100 most powerful women.

And besides Chinese Vice President Wu Yi, who slid one place this year to number three, the rest of the top 10 are business executives, topped by the chief executive-designate of PepsiCo, Indian-born and educated Indra Nooyi.

The magazine's third annual list sees talk-show host Oprah Winfrey dropping to 14th place and New York Senator Hillary Clinton rising from 26 to 18 as her expected campaign for the US presidency in 2008 gathers pace.

KETCHUM, Idaho (AP) - Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is keeping a low profile during a visit to the Sun Valley area of central Idaho for several days, planning excursions in the outdoors but no public events.

Sun Valley Police Chief Cam Daggett says Rice arrived Tuesday afternoon and is staying at a private residence.

Rice has friends in the region, and plans to play golf, tennis, run on trails around the resort and eat at the region's restaurants, according to a State Department spokeswoman in Washington, D.C.

5. Does she have a "companion"
on her little vacation?

And how come these creeps get an absurd amount of vacation time
and we get stuck with the bill?
