Oh I think her coming out of the White House assuring the nation Clintons hadn't had an afair with Monica, ranks right up there. What a pathetic POS that woman is.

I know that just seeing this Madeleine K. Albright in the title should tell us something, but please add this.

In the democratic symphony, elections are but a single note. An election that produces more of the same, or possibly even worse, will mean neither success nor victory.

Maddy is trying to be profound here. But instead of lecturing the public about the limitations of elections, she should tell her buddy Jimmy Carter. He just loves to certify elections in places like Sandanistan Nicaragua, Haiti, and Chavez' Venezuala. Places where the winners get to arrest the losers with impunity. Those abuses are not likely to happen in Iraq with 120,000 US troops on the ground.

What!!! You're being downright unfair. There is no way a Cabinet Member would . . . uhhh . . . lie to the American people. They . . .

(geedee's conscience to a gullible geedee) . . . "Ssshhh. Think before you leap. THIS is a Clintonite you're talking about. A Pee Wee Clinton appointee!

(geedee) . . . They wouldn't purposefully . . . uhhhh . . .

(geedee's conscience) . . . Think before you speak, dumb*ss. Check this out first . . .

Cabinet members were sent out in public to express confidence in Clinton's denial. "I believe the allegations are completely untrue," Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said then. "I'll second that. Definitely," said Commerce Secretary William Daley. "Third it," said Health and Human Services Secretary Donna Shalala.

(geedee, properly chastened) . . . Okay, okay, Doughty, I apologize. She's a lying skank with the IQ of a lava rock.

(geedee's conscience) . . . Good boy. Now back to the Goodship Lollipop for you.

Maddy Maddy Maddy, where to start with this tripe. You are suddenly concerned that the mission in Iraq will seem like it is forever to "our military families." Where was this concern with the mission to Kosovo?

Maddy, you lament that Iraq is "draining our national treasury" at the expense of Bush's "costly" tax reform and Soc security reform initiatives. First off, thank you for repeating the DNC talking points. But you sort of slipped up. See, your statement implies that you are lamenting that there is not enough money for tax reform and soc. security reform. Sure, and pigs fly. You could care a less about anything but funding the UN so they can continue to enable dictators, thugs and tyrants.

Maddy, you hope and pray elections in Iraq fail. You want them to fail because it clearly is a victory for the Bush administration's policy. That is of paramount importance to you Maddy because every Bush admin. success highlights your failures, see for example, North Korea.

Maddy, you and the rest of the leftists in this country can't stand that Iraq is going well. You take the challenges we face there and, with the able aid of the Tired Old Media, turn them into failures. You take the fact that, and this is a REAL SHOCK, Al Queda is opposing free elections, as a sign that elections will NOT work and are worthless. Oh my God, you mean our enemy in this war is opposing us, shocking and unheard of!!. Oops, I forgot, according to you this is not a war at all. Terrorism should be treated as a law enforcement action, its threat is overblown. Sorry about that.

Anyway, you and leftists reaction and actions, they aren't exactly what Al Queda wants, are they? Naaahh, not good ole Al Queada and Sweet Kind Saddam. Some one issue a warrant for those guy's arrest, get me the ACLU on the line and lets put up those inter agency walls again so we can blame Bush for the next 9/11 type attack. (Michael Moore, is that you?)

Maddy, I digress. It is truly pathetic, but predictable that you and the DNC supply Al Queda with exactly what they want. In short Maddy, you want and pray for America's failure, because it means Bush's failure. Bush's policy, and thus America, isn't failing and it is driving you and your traitorous friends on the left nuts.

Maddy, you were a disgracefully incompetenet Secretary of State. Your sole role was to provide photo ops for Mr. Clinton. As for being a true Sec. of State, if failure was to be rewarded, you would be in the Hall of Failure Fame. Maddy, let me make this clear to you, the elections in Iraq are an important step for the entire region where Islamofacism lives and breeds (you know, that lil problem you completely ignored as attack after attack on our troops, who you care soooo much about, happened). Elections help establish a democracy (that means freedom and that means opportunity) in a region that is otherwise devoid of such things. That means security at home.

P.S. Maddy, tell Teddy and the bunch that the Cost of Iraq/WMD/Abu Grahib act is wearing thin. Not more than a week ago Teddy proposed spending us into oblivion by turning us into Canada, i.e. weak and defenseless. At any rate, Teddy et. al. certainly were hawks when your boy was in office spouting about Iraqi WMD's. Now suddenly they were deceived when Bush made his case based upon the SAME intelligence. What, we the people can't do a Lexis Nexis search (that means actually finding out the truth without a Michael Moore/Air America filter) and see what they said back in the day. The voters certainly knew what John Kerry said about WMD's during the last election and they have spoken. Now Maddy, run along and keep those speaking engagements on the failure hall of fame circuit. Leave our national security to the grown ups who currently occupy the White House.

This article appears the same day as Rice is confirmed.

It must really burn Albrights biscuts that her fathers star student is going to be a FAR superior sec. of state than she ever was.

(Rice has already proven a better advisor. Remmeber Albright was mucking around europe on behalf of Kerry and the DNC to keep up the party gravitas)

Liberal revisionist politics...

1. There will never be elections in Iraq.
2. There will be elections in Iraq but they will have to be postponed.
3. There will be elections in Iraq and they will not have to be postponed but in the end they will mean nothing.

More rocks could be thrown but the target is of low value.
