But the comments on this thread that Condi was a quota hire are reprehensible and borderline racist.

They aren't borderline racist. They are flat out racist.

Such racist trolling is common to any thread involving Condi in recent years. It's repulsive, denigrating and against posting policy.

Regarding the book, it's clear from this press report (and those of other memoirs) that W had very strong perspectives to draw opinions from, not wallflowers or yes men.

That's critical in a successful administration and in many ways it was. Their views were heard but, as Bush famously said, "I'm the decider."

I appreciate the service Condi, Cheney, W and others gave to this nation in a very difficult and challenging time.

I agree with you. Some of these comments are outrageous.

It is the human condition that females are much less likely to choose violence than the male of the species (Kipling notwithstanding)

This has been the way of the world since creation and there are very few Maggie Thatchers as an exception.

So IF someone is looking for a reason other than just a policy difference, I would finger sex.

Absolutely! Some of the comments here on Condi Rice are totally uncalled for. Regardless of her moderate leanings or how she thinks ideologically, she did serve her country with great honor. I’d rather have her, President Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and others back at the helm at the White House right now - adults who knew how to run a country. O’s administration is a complete joke and a laughingstock!

Condi is a lovely intelligent women full of grace. Look at her compared to that ghetto queen Michelle.
