And how does that make her qualified? She would be exactly what you don't want for this country. Someone that can't stand up for what's right is in no way qualified to be a leader.

Even all the hatred that is recently directed at Bush over WMDs to me stinks of dogs tearing up the carcass of a badly wounded bear. Like another poster pointed out, Saddam did have WMD. Are chemical weapons WMD in the sense that we are talking about? Yes. Did Saddam deploy chemical weapons against citizens of Iraq? Yes. So Saddam had WMD, case closed. Bush and all his policies are at present very unpopular. Given time, we may find that a reasoned appraisal would give him much higher rating. For these reasons I feel that Dr. Rice's refusal to save her political skin over her duty to her country says a lot about the high quality of her character. Ha

You could be right; time will tell whether she was loyal to the country or to GWB.
