Madeline Albright thinks Bush has bin Laden in hiding!
FOXNEWS SPECIAL EDITION WITH BRIT HUME | 12/16.2003 | Morton Kondracke

Posted on 12/16/2003 4:15:42 PM PST by sinkspur

Morton Kondracke just said that Madeline Albright, former US Secretary of State, said to him in a holding room before an interview

"I wonder when George Bush will drag Osama bin Laden out of hiding? Just before the election?"

Kondracke said he was stunned. He said "You can't be serious!"

He said that Albright was not laughing when she said what she said.

I'm just wondering what the look on Brit Hume's face was. It's hard for me to believe that this woman is still out there spouting her crap. It's just amazing!

Probably his usual inscrutable frown. His eyebrows might have risen a couple of millimeters, though.

The disease of conspiracy is spreading in the Democrat party.

Wait until a Bush associate dies suddenly.

The Democrats will talk about "Dubyacide."

I'm actually surprised that it didn't come out of Hillarys mouth first.

Madeline Albright and thinking are antithetical.

I would say that it's apparent that Albright is Michael Moore in drag, but she hasn't put on enough poundage to pull that off.

Absolutely amazing. This woman was once our Secretary of State.

Is that not pathetic. It just goes to show you how these little minds really are and how lucky we survived her tenure in office. She reminds me of that traitorous, America-hating, Ramsey Clark from the Carter administration.

Senility is setting in early. Geez, I never realized she was that stupid. Liberal, yes. Hypocritical, yes. But I didn't think she would say something that stupid. Sounds like Hitlery.

National Review, Oct 12, 1998, by John J. Miller

http//www.findarticles.com/cf_dls/m1282/n19_v50/21191253/p1/article.jhtml

Madeleine Albright is the perfect secretary of state for the Clinton Administration.

IT was the domestic version of a fatal diplomatic faux pas: Secretary of State Madeleine Albright stood outside the West Wing of the White House on January 23, a few minutes after President Clinton had lied to her and the rest of his Cabinet about his relationship with Monica Lewinsky. "I believe that the allegations are completely untrue," declared Mrs. Albright. Seven months later, with President Clinton begging the nation for its forgiveness, his loyal surrogate could not summon the kind of tough talk she routinely hurls at foreign leaders. "I feel that he is doing a great job as President," she said on ABC News. Asked whether she felt ill used by Mr. Clinton, she replied: "I do not."

For a hard-nosed woman with a penchant for flamboyant truth-telling, Madeleine Albright is strikingly demure when it comes to the Clinton scandal. Words have not often failed her since she joined the Administration in 1993 as U.S. Representative to the United Nations. When Cuban pilots shot down a civilian plane in international airspace two years ago, she boldly announced, "This is not cojones, this is cowardice."

Her sharp words are still applied to everyone but Bill Clinton. Unfortunately, they have come to sound like nothing more than empty rhetoric. If Theodore Roosevelt developed the policy of speaking softly and carrying a big stick, Mrs. Albright has reversed it; whether the issue is Iraq, Kosovo, or Israel/Palestine, she speaks loudly and flails empty hands.

Much of the problem, to be sure, lies with her President, who, when he thinks about international affairs at all, would rather play the role of First Tourist than geopolitical strategist. "Moses could not have done a good job as secretary of state to this President," says Michael Ledeen of the American Enterprise Institute. Yet Mrs. Albright has done little to burnish her own image in these admittedly trying circumstances. As Mr. Clinton's reputation sinks to new depths, hers has been headed downward on a parallel track.

Inside Washington's foreign-policy establishment, she is widely regarded as a lightweight uncomfortable with formulating large-scale strategics or grappling with the global economy. She is well liked, but not greatly admired. Critics call her "Half Bright" or "Not-at-Alright." They say she lacks confidence in dealing with matters outside her areas of expertise, which essentially means anywhere in the world except for Central Europe. There, her knowledge has proved helpful in the NATO expansion; elsewhere, her record of accomplishment is spotty.

The most important international issues today are economic, as markets reel in Asia, Russia, and Latin America. Mrs. Albright, however, stays far removed from these concerns. Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin takes the lead in her place. Although that is in one sense appropriate, given his own areas of expertise, it has created the impression that somebody other than the secretary of state is running American foreign policy. On July 2, for example, the New York Times printed a photograph of Robert Rubin touring the De-Militarized Zone in Korea. What does that have to do with overseeing markets?"

All ass and mouth, she is.

That's a disgusting mental image you've given me.

Like it would be possible to keep it secret if we did have obl, or even obl's DNA. He's pushing up daisies somewhere on Tora Bora.

Owner: Well, he's...he's, ah...probably pining for the fjords.

Mr. Praline: PININ' for the FJORDS?!?!?!? What kind of talk is that?, look, why did he fall flat on his back the moment I got 'im home?

Owner: The Norwegian Blue prefers keepin' on it's back! Remarkable bird, id'nit, squire? Lovely plumage!

Mr. Praline: Look, I took the liberty of examining that parrot when I got it home, and I discovered the only reason that it had been sitting on its perch in the first place was that it had been NAILED there.

(pause)

Owner: Well, o'course it was nailed there! If I hadn't nailed that bird down, it would have nuzzled up to those bars, bent 'em apart with its beak, and VOOM! Feeweeweewee!

Mr. Praline: "VOOM"?!? Mate, this bird wouldn't "voom" if you put four million volts through it! 'E's bleedin' demised!

Owner: No no! 'E's pining!

Mr. Praline: 'E's not pinin'! 'E's passed on! This parrot is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the perch 'e'd be pushing up the daisies! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!! THIS IS AN EX-PARROT!!

LOL--you're definitely onto something there, Kent.

And the fact that Albreight would say such thing? Means she is so cynical that could actually do such a thing.

Wrong prez. Clark was Johnson's Attorney General.
