"In a keynote speech last month to the American Task Force on Palestine, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice sounded very unlike President Bush on the Middle East, lavishing praise on Palestinians and implicitly attacking Israel. ""While the words she chose have invited criticism, much more concerning is that the top U.S. diplomat has the same fundamental misunderstanding of the Middle East that most do, namely that Palestinians are ready to coexist peacefully next to a Jewish state. This conventional diplomatic wisdom, however, ignores the history of the region since the Oslo accords in 1993: the once largely secular Palestinian society has become increasingly Islamic—and deeply radicalized."

I've given up on the Bush administration. When Madame Rice began imitating Madame Albright, I cried, "Noooooooooooo!"
Now, I am resigned to two more years.
I know what ya mean...
I'm beginning to think like Mr. Beck (in a way). I don't care anymore if the guy claims to be a conservative republican. I don't look at LEFT or RIGHT, just Right or Wrong.
Still, I can't bring myself to vote for a Dem.
How soon you all have forgotten Madame Rice's sterling accomplishment of ending the recent dust up in Lebanon: Franco-American UNSC Resolution 1701. Madame Rice, in a mere two days, took the US from decisiveness to debacle - an accomplishment that will be studied for generations by awestruck future diplomats seeking inspiration from a master.
Touche!, Allen!
I think there is something very corrupt and corrupting within the State Department.
