Bush Chooses Rice to Replace Powell

From USATODAY.com Posted 11/15/2004

The Associated Press is reporting that a senior administration official says President Bush has asked national security adviser Condoleezza Rice to replace Powell as Secretary of State.

Well there’s yet another example of Bush’s dart throw decision making skills. Hhhmmm I need a security adviser…hey I know how about the person that needs a title more blunt than “Bin Laden Determined to Attack Inside the United States.”

Without 911 I don’t think any administration could have convinced the people of the United States to wait in long security lines and take off their shoes in order to board a plane just because the Government was sure there was a big threat, but I do think any competent administration would have, as vague it was, investigated the report entitled “Bin Laden Determined to Attack Inside the United States.” (from CNN.com Wednesday May 19, 2004.)
