Former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright rips Bush

LAS VEGAS -- A feisty former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright denounced George W. Bush on Thursday, saying the president's divisive and destructive policies had wreaked havoc on the world and diminished the United States.

"I am depressed about the standing we have in the world today," Albright said during a brief stop at an American Legion hall. "This president has ruined our reputation and destroyed our credibility and moral authority. To use a diplomatic term of art, the world is a mess."

Albright has been campaigning for presidential candidate John Kerry with a group that includes former top generals, a U.S. Marine who served recently in Iraq, and Rep. Jane Harman, D-Calif., the highest-ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee.

Albright had nothing good to say about Bush or the war in Iraq, which she described as a "chaotic disaster."

"It was badly planned," she continued. "It was horrible. There was no plan. The president calls it a 'catastrophic success.' Have ever heard those two words together? It's kind of like imposing democracy, another oxymoron."

Thank you for your part in WEAKENING the US Madam Secretary.

...and that's why the rest of the world prefers her and her Clintonista friends over the Bush Administration: she's been happy and eager to weaken the US such that other new "superpowers" will rise up.

the Clintoon presidency was disasterous for the images of "competent women" in government...

but is Dr. Rice getting any respect? "Nah, she is window dressing", say the dems.

Mad Maddie, actually it was your administration that ruined
our reputation and destroyed our credibility and moral
authority.

Oh, and the only diplomatic term of art you might know
fell out of your mop bucket, while you were kissing
up to Lil Kim.

She has no shame...the requisite for a liberal Democrat.

What exactly did she accomplish as SOS? Besides being happy that she was "betrayed by Clinton"?

Mad Madeline was the biggest harpy I ever met. She was demanding and an absolute clod.

Also, she looks ridiculous in an Air Force A-2 jacket (which she "borrowed" and never gave back).

Sooner or later, she'll cough up that hairball...

Then the Democrats will nominate it for public office.
