Let's compare the achievements of these people:
Rice: First female U.S. Secretary of State who has never been mistaken for a cleaning lady
McGough: Lame poet who no one has ever heard of
Case closed.

"Dr. Rice! Dr.Rice!
You are not nice!
Just because your so smart
And make me look like a longhaired senile old Fart!
Dr. Rice! Dr.Rice!
Your Foreigner's 'Cold As Ice!
Because your the most powerful woman in the land!
And I am talentless to even write Green Eggs and Ham!
Dr. Rice! Dr.Rice!"
