Powell Quits, Rice to Be New Secretary of State
I don't care what they say over at Boondocks, I think I could make Condi a happy woman. She'd be singing all day long.
We'd both be a whole lot happier than we are going to be with her over at the State Department. The sad fact is that Powell was not able to fulfill his potential (and hoped for) duty as a voice of reason in the administration. This is just part of a larger plan of consolidating the administration's power.
At the same time, there is a purge going on at the CIA for their failures. Their main failure was to not get on board with the cooked intelligence of Wolfowitz and Perle.
This means that we will be effectively blinded in our overseas view by narrow, partisan policy concerns. This is very much not good.
