Interesting site. Dr. Rice is a well-educated woman who has overcome much adversity to get where she is. I'd be more comfortable with Dr. Rice as a candidate if she was pro-life, though. That issue would prohibit me from voting for her.

There are several issues I have with Dr. Rice.

I like her general intelligence, and support of the 2nd Amendment.

But I am concerned that, indeed, she was asleep at the switch on 9-11. How was she so ignorant of the Phillipines Al-Quaeda arrest? Just because George Tenet and Richard Clarke failed to brief her? Or Xlinton brief GWB? Give me a break. ANY adult would know going into that situation that they needed to ASSUME the WORST. Particularly when it comes out that NONE of the "Gore Airline Safety Commission" recommendations had been implemented. That the ball had been dropped, and terrorists were already amongst us thanks to the prevaricator in chief. And that planes would be used as cruise missiles...just as the Phillipine police warned us.

She has gone along with the rehabilitation of the Xlinton's by her boss.

She has shown she lacks solid conservative ideology, being more given to "containment" rather than "victory" (war-winning) strategy. Rather than being an intellectual heir of Reagan, she is more warmed-over John Foster Dulles.
