I have been very disappointed with Rice at State. Maybe she should leave too.

Well, I'd rather see Dr. Samuel Huntington as the Secretary of State. Of course, it is not within my powers to get him there.

I have been disappointed as well.
Zelikow was among the first people Rice hired after she took over as secretary of state in 2005. She also brought in other fellow academics
Those "academics" may be a big part of the problem.

Wasn't Zelikow the man who managed to "mislay" the Able Danger reports?

His assessments, to the extent they have been reported, have been very sober and well-reasoned. It is hard to point to anything he has been particularly wrong about.

Actually it be is a Terrorist Cheerleaders Ping since you three spend all your time hyperventilating about what the 20-30,000 Militants are doing and ignoring the other 24,970,000 Iraqis.

Samuel Phillips Huntington (born April 18, 1927) is a political scientist known for his analysis of the relationship between the military and the civil government, his investigation of coups d'etat, and his thesis that the central political actors of the 21st century will be civilizations rather than nation-states. More recently, he garnered widespread attention for his analysis of threats posed to the United States by modern-day immigration. He is a professor at Harvard University. Huntington came to prominence as a scholar in the 1960s with the publication of Political Order in Changing Societies, a work that challenged the conventional view of modernization theorists that economic and social progress would bring about stable democracies in recently decolonized countries.] My that would be real clever. Bring back an ancient "realist" who still has not learned a single thing from what happened on 09-11-01. Bring back one of the same clowns who created this mess in the Middle East! There is a real "solution".
Well I guess he would be the prefect choice for the "Hide our heads under the pillows and hope the world will just go away" Terrorist Cheerleaders Squad .

Yeppers...Zeli is up to his eyeballs in keeping the Able Danger documents and testimony into the 9/11 commission, IIRC.

Good riddance. Amen to that, hopefully with the Schoolmarm not too far behind him.
To: Nascar Dad
Ollie would be good at the CIA. He's more of an action man. At the State he'd be good in the personnel function [to flush the Augean stables], not in the policy one.

I had such high hopes for Condi...but, I am kind of worried about her influence.

? This has nothing to do with what terrorists are doing. It is a change at the State Department. Do you know what the phrase "truly riveting obligation to college bursars" means? It means that the college financial officers are calling the tuition tab due and payable. Zelikow did a good job for the 24,970,000 Iraqis. We are handing more responsibility to Maliki and the Iraqi government. Their failures and shortcomings must be managed by State, not the troops on the ground. So what is your beef with someone pointing this out?

Professors are generally not doers by their very nature. As disasterous example, we have Madame Albright.
To: MNJohnnie
Well, I see that you have difficulty in comprehending the written texts. His "Clash" states that intercivilizational wars end up either in stalemates or in genocides, for the beginning - and he had stated it prior to 9/11. 9/11 had nothing to teach him. To me, it sounds like an extremely clear thinking.
