I think the criticism of Condi is that she is not towing the Neo con line as far as pushing for a war with Iran and Syria. Like I said previously, when Richard Perle is part of the gang that wants Condi out you can be sure it's because she is not towing the line.

Posted by Richard W. Crews at July 26, 2006 09:16 PMGood post pess, here's my humble contribution :
...It was 25 years ago
Ronnie Reagan made reality go
Now it's mostly out of style
But it's around once in a while
But let me introduce to you
The authors of our fears
It's Condoleeza's angry long knife band...
With these guys their number one loyalty is to self, then party, then ideology. Human life and loyalty to country comes pretty far down. To save their own skins they need the Republicans to retain control of the legislative branch. All they have left is the power to wage war, so their strategy is to use that power to win the election. They need to make us forget Iraq, whip up a nationalist frenzy, and get American troops under fire in time for the elections so they can scare voters away from the Democrats. If Condi is not playing along, she threatens the election year war strategy that they need to save their fat asses.

Multi-syllable words are not Georgie's forte.

Indeed coal-train, and in order to "save their own skins" ending up putting their cojones where their tonsils ought to be appears to be AOK as well.
In this case I'm referring to Senate hopeful Michael Steele and his about face to save his own skin by not irking the party that put him in a well-publiziced political position from which to try for the Senate. Anyway, this is what the Washington Post says,
--"Why did you say being a Republican is like wearing a scarlet letter, sir?" a television reporter shouted as Steele disappeared.
Just a few hours later, in the confines of conservative talk radio, Steele said he welcomed the chance to clarify his comments, which were critical of the Iraq war and Bush's response to Hurricane Katrina. But he backed away from his suggestion at the luncheon Monday that he would "probably not" want Bush to come to Maryland to campaign for him.”--
Not that Steele’s remarks are much different from others made by the same type of cojones-less beings, but if interested here’s the entire article,

Bush, Condoleeza, Cheney, and company have no power. The presidency has been controlled by others for a long time. Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote about it a century and a half ago. Emerson wrote putting ones hopes in an election or party does nothing when not recognizing the ones behind the president pulling the strings.

So that would be: Israel unilaterally stps the war while the radical Islamicists continue bombarding Israel with rockets.
Yeah, right.
