If you are anywhere this book this weekend pick it up and read just a page. Its almost like someone from the Onion had written it.

Brilliant piece. Maybe there is hope for the world.

As I briefed Rice on al-Qa'eda, her facial expression

Another, very witty Freeper (whose name I don't recall) said that her facial expression was actually expressing, "Hey, did I demote this guy FAR enough?"

This is the best synopsis of Richard Clarke I have seen . Clarke is a back biter from the word go.

Instead, all the Islamists who went to Afghanistan in the 1990s graduated from Camp
Osama and were dispersed throughout Europe, Asia, Australia and North America,
where they lurk to this day. That's the Clarke-Clinton legacy. And, if it were mine,
I wouldn't be going around boasting about it.

Amen!

You know if Condi was a Democrat in a Democrat Administration, Jesse Jackson would be calling Dick Clarke a disgruntled racist who couldn't and wouldn't work for a Black Woman! And a Black Woman who demoted him at that!
...and the media would follow Jessie's lead and attack Clark's vendetta against a fine Black Woman!

But, that's just if Condi was a Democrat.

Great article.

"every month or so from taking a wild ride on defective vehicles for their crazy scheme"

Democrats would do well to realize that "The X-Files" was *not* a reality show.

Enough with the looney tinfoil hat conspiracies.

fyi

As for Clarke's beef with Bush, that's simple. For eight years, he had pottered away on the terrorism brief undisturbed. The new President took it away from him and adopted the strategy outlined by Condoleezza Rice in that Detroit radio interview, months before the self-regarding Mr Clarke claims he brought her up to speed on who bin Laden was: "We really need a stronger policy of holding the states accountable that support him," Dr Rice told WJR. "Terrorists who are just operating out there without basis and without state support are a lot less dangerous than ones that find safe haven, as bin Laden does sometimes in places like Afghanistan or Sudan."

Steyn on Clarke. Another winner.

I think that was Ann Coulter.

Mark Steyn ~ Bump!

We are winning ~ the bad guys are losing ~ trolls, terrorists, democrats and the mainstream media are sad ~ very sad!

~~ Bush/Cheney 2004 ~~

[Kirkwood]

Give Mr. Steyn a Pulitzer!

[Lurker]

She is far too intelligent to be a Democrat.

BTTT

Best article yet about (the perjurer) Clarke.

[eddie willers]

But, that's just if Condi was a Democrat.

Who knows where things like this will lead?

It was the Compassionate, Diversity-loving Democrat's® High-Tech Lynching of Clarance Thomas that was the final straw in making me renounce my life long party affiliation.

[TexasCajun]

She is far too intelligent to be a Democrat.

I have no problem what-so-ever with a Bush/Rice ticket.

Thanks for the ping...Mark S. hit it out of the ballpark!
