| #4 gromguru: Astonishing, simply astonishing Not all that astonishing. I've never thought much of Rice. I've read some of her (Reagan-era) papers, before she became a government official. It struck me upon reading them that they weren't that original or insightful - I couldn't figure out why she was being published. Then a friend pointed out - which hadn't occurred to me at the time, since I was going through a liberal phase - that she was not only a woman, she was black, and probably the only black woman writing about the Soviet threat in a reasonably cogent manner. The guy was brilliant, but there were plenty of other brilliant white political science PhD's. Condi Rice, on the other hand ... |

| #1 I am not quite sure why there is a Dutch representative at the Annapolis conference and why he would be talking to the Washington Post. However, if what is reported is true, then all Condi really said was that her childhood gave her an understanding of both sides, people for whom life is always threatened. Not a big deal. Of more interest is the quote " Timmermans also told the Post that (Israeli) Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni had pleaded with Arab representatives at the summit to stop "treating her like a leper," and questioned why they refused to shake her hand. The Arab representatives, he added, had treated Livni like she was "Dracula's younger sister." |
