Snip...

Could anyone be more phony?

yep, he's just waiting for Hillary to return from her Australian junket. Its not polite to have a party when the hostess isn't there.

Too bad these hypocrites weren't as interested in investigating 9/11.

Partisan political hack.

Yeah, it looks like McCain is getting into the over-the-hill territory. Seen it many times before.

McCain is the spitting intellectual image of every willfully ignorant rightard on this board...

This is the person John McCain characterizes as "not very bright" and "not qualified" - Keep in mind McCain picked Caribou Barbie to be a heartbeat away from the Presidency.

Amen brother...McCain is looking a OLD GRUMPY Man who is bitter he lost.

Getting pretty old, think he should retire.

And let's compare Susan Rice's education to...

John McCain - BS, US Naval Academy, 1954-1958, graduated 894th in a class of 899

I could break the top 500 in my sleep.

He actually said that? That she's not very bright? That old man needs to get checked out for Alzheimer's. What a fool. If there is one thing I've seen out of McCain over the last twenty years, he is a man totally lacking in principles. He will say anything or take any stand on any issue in order to keep suckling on that government teat.

McCain is an impatient and angry little man whose point of view is mired in years of abuse of power. McCain comes from "royalty". (His father was a four star admiral and his grandfather was a four star admiral) and his understanding of the military is archaic and out of touch. He has become more of a political stumbling block than a military friend.

McCain has been in politics 21 years ago and the only thing he talks about is having been a POW. His only real political accomplishment has been survival of censure, avoidance of jail, and avoiding prosecution. His voting record is so backwards that he spent a good part of his election campaign apologizing for stupid decisions he made. Oddly enough McCain has considerably more moral fiber, courage, and substance that Romney. Mitt lied about so many things even his own people did not trust him.

Look at Palin's resume. I wouldn't hire her to cut my lawn. She got out maneuvered by Michelle Bachman, disregarded by her own party, and quit her job in Alaska.

This is the real state of the RNC. I do not get why they do not see the whole integrity thing as a problem.

It really is a psychological phenomena. In some ways they've now crossed over from hypocrisy to something more pathetic: total self-deception.

Except McCain is a war hero and Rice doesn't even bother showing up for most of the votes at the UN. In fact she missed everyone where israel was the subject. Big deal on her degrees that doesn't mean you get to be the secretary of state. Just nominate Kerry and get an easy confirmation. Why force the repubs into denying Rice? just to make a point? Nominate Kerry or Powell again and be done with it.

Nobody is going to contest McCain is a war hero...well...except for some of the guys that served with him, a few people who rescued him, and the handful of people who actually know the man personally....I digress.

Why did Rice no show? Do you know? If I detailed all the reason why would it change public perception? The problem with the perception game is we've become little better than Rome where media argues over the voice of Pleb rather than people asking questions they assume.

A soldier is in Afghanistan. War hero? No. He was here. Doesn't that mean anyone who wears the uniform is a hero? What about the guy the government if burning for slaughtering innocent Afghans? What if those Afghans were not as innocent as claimed? What if the reason was a failure in government policy?

If our drone policy is so bad why isn't McCain harping about that instead he wants to go after Bengazi?

I like conservatives. I wish we had more of them. Romney? Really!?

Yeah, I see your point. Sort of like how I felt about Condoleeza Rice.

McCain stories abound.

The "velvet hammer" is sorely underestimated. She is smart and very effective.

Condis resume crushes your Rice.

You do know that is intentional, right (regarding our non-presence in Israel votes)?

Israel is not in great standing right now in the UN. Both Russia and China carry anti-Israeli sentiment as an inherent part of their suite of alliances. It is far better for the U.S. from a foreign policy standpoint to abstain than to get into the quagmire that Israel/Palestine votes turn into in the U.N..

Case in point - not too long from now Palestine's appeal for U.N. recognition as a nation will be up for vote shortly. That is a vote the U.S. NEEDS to skip. We can't vote in favor of Palestine without completely ****ting on Israel. We can't vote against without throwing away all the work we've been trying to do in Libya, Egypt, Iraq, and Afghanistan, not to mention souring relations with several other key allies (Turkey for example).

Its a no win proposition and it is damn important for the U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. to know when it's better to not even show up and work behind closed doors.

As to your claim that Condi's resume far outstrips the current Rice in office, maybe you should actually do some follow up on that.

Both have PhDs (one in PoliSci, one in Philosophy with a global relations focus). Both have long histories of D.C. service and in fact both served on the National Security Council. Both have worked as public and international policy consultants in the private sector. Hell, both are Phi Beta Kappas. The big difference in their resumes to this point is that while Condi Rice was provost of Stanford Susan Rice (who actually got her B.A. from Stanford) has been the ambassador to the U.N..

Pretty comparable careers.

Rice has a ship named after, has sat on the boards of major companies, is an accomplished concert pianist, a good golfer, and is a professor.

Also her job as provost was a slam dunk. She took a huge deficit and turned it around in two yrs. She is an amazing woman. Then of course she has already been secretary of state.

No **** she's already been SoS. Can't really check that box until you get the job.

Also, seriously? Ship named after her, concert pianist, good golfer, those are the kinds of things you think are resume highlights? I didn't realize the qualifications for SoS are the same as those for an interesting date.

Neither of them is mine.

She was way out of her league as SoS. Also as National Security Advisor. Remember the Congressional hearings about 9/11? The fool tried to pretend like there was no warning about domestic terrorism when there was a warning titled, "Threat of Domestic Terrorism". But she claimed there was no such thing and replied to inquiries by saying, "Do you question my integrity?"

Condi was pathetic, Cutt. I'm sorry, but she was, and she's not gonna have any kind of political career in the future because she was so pathetic. Much like other darlings of the right like Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachman. I think Paul Ryan qualifies as a darling pretty face also like the above mentioned.

I don't think it's fair to put Condi in the same class as Palin or Bachman. I don't think Condi was a good SOS, but I think she was qualified & at least not batsh*t crazy like Palin and Bachman. ... And Susan Rice is a brilliant woman and more than qualified, she'd be good for this country.

Kindasleaza wasn't crazy - just extremely corrupt and lacking in any sort of moral compass. She had no scruples about getting in bed with war criminals and white collar crooks if it advanced her career. She should be in prison for perjuring herself in front of the 9/11 Commission, among other things.
