Katie Couric’s ignorance and bias exposed. xrl.us/bibht4Couric is even too stupid to see she is being shown up as poorly equipped to interview an informed person on a subject of any depth. Watch the whole thing to see just how over matched Couric is proven to be.

But she beat up on a even less prepared Palin in 2008! Those interviews were pretty funny to watch.

Lots of people think that Bush went to war on feeble evidence. It sure wasn't enough for the Germans or the French. The Turks turned us away when we wanted to invade through them. The party line is that EVERYONE agreed that the war had to happen. Not so. In the main it was only the Bush administration. Couric was polite enough to not point that out to Rice. Guess she wants another interview sometime.

The Turks wanted a strong Sadaam maintaining his iron rule on the Kurds. really not even a point of discussion here.. blatant fear that no Sadaam meant the Kurds attempting to declare independence and drag parts of Turkey along with it. The German and the French were in bed with Iraq over MAJOR oil deals. And their still pissed about the US ruining much of that. They knew that a new government in Iraq or major US presence would throw all deals out the window and they would have to start their bribery from scratch AND compete with US and British Oil Companies looking to fill the void. This is not some paranoid right wing fairy tale...this the ugly truth about world politics. Rice is too astute for a left wing liberal...the liberal agenda is based on emotion rather than fact based decision making.

EVERYONE IN THE WORLD DID WANT TO GO TO WAR. They just had other reasons for not doing so. ROFL

Next aztecwin is going to tell us that there were WMDs, but they were snuck out and are buried in the desert somewhere, or maybe in Syria.

Guess she wants another interview sometime. The party line? Which party? The Groucho Marx party, perhaps. The fact is that all the intelligence agencies agreed that Saddam had WMDs. No one in the Bush admnistration ever said that every Western country was in favor of starting a war. (Oh, sorry. Correction: the war had been started by Saddam Hussein and was (A) legally in a state of armistice, and (B) practically speaking still going on, though at a very low level.) It is also a fact that invading Iraq was, legally, totally justified. If I have created havoc in the neighborhood and am put on probabtion (which, in effect, was the case with Saddam) and I repeatedly violate the terms of my probabtion by continuing to persecute my neighbors and by throwing stones at the passing police cars sent to monitor my behavior, what do you think would happen to me? Those who want to continue to bash George Bush apparently believe that in the scenario I just outlined, nothing should happen to me. AzWm

Rice is just too well informed and her ability to expose Couric shows her superior mental alacrity. There is no liberal who comes close to her wisdom and knowledge. If there were such people they would not be liberals.

I am offering my opinion. The problem is that you conservatives believe your opinions are facts. I guess that is why you are conservatives. You can not tell the difference from fantasy and reality.
You guys are good for a hoot. ;D

AzWm "WMDs" was a program started under Bill Clinton and Sec. of State, Mad. Albright who was adamant that they had WMDs in Iraq. Since Bush was "barely" into office at 9/11, he took that program and what was provided by, what William posts, the "intelligence agencies". As well as Repubs., so did many demos. vote to go ahead with this expensive endeavor. I did not like and do not like the whole thing and wished like hcal, the issues of the UC Regents, Iraq, and Afghanistan had never been created. HAM

Yes she was. What does that say about Palin? Why don't you tell us what it says about Palin? I suggest that a naive Palin went into an interview expecting an honest series of questions instead of a exploitive ambush. She flubbed a question about what she reads, but overall handled herself with dignity in a hostile environment. She was not ready to show Couric up like Rice was. Now then, you tell me what Palin has to do with a deft peeling back of the many layers of ignorance that surrounds Couric by Condi Rice?

It would be interesting to see what Rice thinks of Bachman and Palin.... I am betting not much.
