Burns’ power is said to be increasing under Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice who, like her predecessor, has delegated much authority for policymaking to career bureaucrats.

Maybe if she wore a burka and if she had two male relatives along, they would send a lowly underling to speak with her.

The only woman in modern times that the leaders of the ME listened to was Golda. She had the power to kick their collective a$$es.
