And Henry Kissinger is in what foreign policy position in the Bush administration?

Please tell me.

And Henry Kissinger is in what foreign policy position in the Bush administration?

Lol ... I'm so glad you asked. Aside from his trips to Austin to school Bush, Kissinger was in the chorus line with Scowcroft, Schultze and eye-candy Rice on May 23, 2000 as Xiao Bushi announced indeed he could "do" foreing policy.

I realize Rice gets a lot of the press for her "body blocks" and other bits of skillful diplomacy ... I realize they find her useful for the occasional song and dance (as with the soft-shoe she did in Texas to take the focus off the fact Putin stiffed Bush and left him without a signed agreement or even a friendly "counterpart" face for the final conference) ... but some of us don't believe everything we read in the press just because the left-wing media's sitting in the GOP's lap these days.

"Today, I am here with some of our nation’s leading [Republican] statesmen and defense experts [former Secretaries of State Henry Kissinger and George Schultz, former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, former National Security Advisor Brent Scowcroft, and former Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Colin Powell]. And there is broad agreement that our nation needs a new approach to nuclear security that matches a new era.

Aw ... check it out ... Condi didn't even rate a mention in his opening line. Go figure.
