Perhaps you can say she has no blunders?
Is she a Great Secretary of State, despite the Bush administration.
Or does history have anything else to say at all?
Now.
Smart.
Wealthy.
You want to chalk her up as a really Great SecOStat?

She does her job & does it well. She's a self made women from a poor back-ground. Very smart, well spoken, gives concise answers and is unwavering. The only women in America I would think of voting for as president at this time. Her experience is second to none, Hillary doesn't come close.

Let's see, her statement about the "mushroom cloud," (that Iraq was an imminent threat to the US), the way she ignored multiple warnings of the 9-11 plot between January 2001 and September 10, her statements that Israel had the right to bomb all of Lebanon killing 2000 civilians and that it was proportionate retaliation for the terror group Hezbollah's kidnapping of 2 Israeli soldiers in a border skirmish..I'm sure there are more, but after that point, I quit paying much attention the news on C. Rice.
By the way, she's not wealthy yet, but like many high officials, she is likely to rake in piles of cash once she leaves office.

She won't go down in history as a great sec of state.
But she is a very good one.
Just look at whats shes done.
She has gotten both Russia and China, to support two different rounds of sanctions against iran.
sanctions they were both initialy against.
She also got Israel, the Palestinians and all the Arab counties at a peace conference for the first time ever .
That has never been done before.

I am NOT a fan of the current administration. But I have to say that Condoleeza Rice impresses me. I think she's detail-oriented, calm, articulate and unafraid to get in and dig into complicated issues like Israel-Palestine.
This is not to say that mistakes won't be made - especially given the policy she has to administrate. But I think she's smart as hell.

Yeah, horrible.... she stopped the Koreans and the Iranians from developing nukes... but the media plays it around to them not being a threat and forgeting to say WHY.... It is not enough to give credit where credit is due.... you have to obscure the good message to sell a newspaper

I think Ms. Rice is on the ball and has performed her duties, at any given post, in an excellent manner.
Why would you want to point out her faults?

No one has an error-free life or career.
But she's not what you're implying.

I think she stands head and shoulders over Madeleine "He lied to me" Albright.
Merry Christmas!
