Things I noticed about Dr. Rice:
When asked about NATO she responded with "NATO Countries."

She said the new Iraqi government will be representative of the aspirations etc. She did not say it would be representative of the people"as the reconstruction really kicks in"

When asked about security for she said we need to talk about "THEIR plans," and bringing in "more experienced" security people. And when asked if Allawi declared martial law as he said he'd like to, would the US have to enforce martial law she gave the classic trapped Neocon response: "I won't get into hypotheticals."

About Anonymous:
Bush will like the book.

Round table on Iraq
The deadline has been met???

Holbrooke: They did not meet any of the benchmarks. It's a prayer, not a policy

Brooks: Give them credit for meeting the deadline.

Zakaria: The political stuff is being approved because the US has reversed itself so much.

And Holbrooke is spanking the whole round table. He pointed out how Dr. Rice didn't actually answer any of Stephanopolis' policy questions.

Zakaria knows better than to argue with him. But Brooks is still a shill.
