Say What???

Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice appeared before the Senate foreign Relations Committee on Jan 11, 2007. Condi gets a little testy when people don't don't fawn over her and treat her with kid gloves. She also ducks, evades, and hides with the best of them. This incredulous statement was made by the haughty 'leader' of America's diplomatic efforts throughout the world:

Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) pushed Rice more, saying "a failed strategy, however repackaged, is still a failed strategy" and decrying that the plan had no benchmarks or timelines. "What will our government do specifically?" he asked Rice.

"It's bad policy to speculate on what you'll do if a plan fails when you're trying to make a plan work," Rice replied.

Ho-boy, are we in serious trouble.

I'll bet she has some backup pairs of shoes though.
