If Condolessa Rice cannot conduct herself in a civil and respectful manner, feeling threatened by an inquiring Senator of the same gender, then should she actually be Secretary of State?
No.
We don't need temper tantrums in the State Department or in the presence of other 'Dignitaries.' Georgie has temper tantrums enough. Last time he through one on behalf of his Daddy, he bombed Iraq.
Again I ask, do we need someone who cannot conduct herself in a civil and respectful manner, feeling threatened by an inquiring Senator of the same gender, then should she be Secretary of State?
No. She will abandon diplomacy and encourage this nation to 'go to guns' everytime she feels a wrinkle in her skirt. Who needs it?
