Powell should be made to be doing all the bellicose stuff that GWB has been doing vis a vis Iraq, and the Inspectors. It was Powell who got us doing the UN thing anyways. He should be told to 'make it work'. As it is, GWB is doing all the down-and-dirty threats, so Powell comes across all spiffy 'peace-nik', Powell is one of the LEAST public of the Secretaries of State I've ever seen. And regarding the toadying up to Islam to placate our pseudo-Allies in the Mideast, that ALSO should be Powell's job. Let him bow and scrape to Mecca at that stupid mosque. If Bush wants my vote next time around, he is going to have to earn it. As far as I am concerned, he is no different at this point than Hillary hugging & kissing Mrs. Arafat. Blech! He has gone too far with the toadying. It totally discredits his profession of Christianity IMHO.

I agree Bush has gone too far with his attacks against Christian leaders and his support of the idea that Islam is a religion of peace plus his connection to a Hezbollah supporting billionaire. Powell is a voice of reason on Iraq, but supports appeasement everywhere else, which is why I have called for his replacement. John Bolton or the recently sacked Otto Reich would be good choices. Reich would be a particularly good choice given the recent Marxist takeover of most of Latin America and would send a strong signal that the Admininstration's policy of appeasing Marxist and Communist thugs is at an end. For more on the threat from Marxist-dominated Latin America, please see the Center for the National Security Interest's website
