Ok, I read the first three paragraphs and that was enough. So, can I ask how old that photo of Dowd is? I have a friend who until recently wore a t-shirt that says "Kiss me, I´m 40" on the front. It was a favorite until a saleskid in a store asked her "How long have you had that shirt?"

So, Ms. Dowd, how long have you had that photo?

I wish congress would stop focusing on her and ask the real question of why nothing was done to help the Ambassador, Smith, woods, Doherty and others who were in danger. Obomination did NOTHING and watched them die!

Dowd, normally a dem transcriptionist, smells something in the air. She will be able to point to this piece, after King Putt´s flameout, and say "I told you so."

First Milbank and now Dowd who seems sober in this article for a change.

I never thought of the angle that she went on these shows lying to build up her resume for SoS but then again I don´t like like the crafty leftists.

Rice´s nomination is toast regardless of the CBC crying out loud.

The whole Libya scandal has absolutely nothing to do with Condi Rice, so why has Dowd inserted her name in the opening paragraphs of her weak opinion piece? Dowd spews venom with every word she writes. She is a hateful, vengeful poisonous columnist who doesn´t write any better than a freshman in journalism school. How she keeps a job is totally beyond explanation. What a despicable human being!

I hope when she testifies in front of Congress they ask her what evidence she has that she thought it was a demonstration.

The "building up the resume" theory has been around for the last few days. It actually makes sense.

It´s this simple Susan, you whore for 0bama, you can´t be Secretary of State.

Rice is a piker...who had no business in her present position....not ever.

Simply compare Rice to Bolton...She pales in comparison ....Rice and gravitas in the same sentence...laughable and ludicrous.

Until appointments are made based upon real accomplishments rather than skin tone...we will continue down the road to Affirmayptive Action ruin and the Jarxists running our universities will continue to demonise and ban conservatives as racists ..while inviting those who approve of bestiality all in the same week. Insanity thy name is Fordham.

Susan Rice, proving once again that anything Obama touches turns to rubbish. Spreading Obama´s lies on five Sunday talk shows didn´t enhance her resume for SoS, but it did enhance her resume for PoS.

Read her Wikipedia page. Rice was rubbish before Obama got anywhere near her. She´s been trying to turn herself into a major player for years. The results: disaster. It´s all there.

Maureen Dowd is clearly no friend of Susan Rice. She lambasts her so thoroughly here that this piece is being quoted elsewhere.

Maybe MoDo finally found something that enhanced her brainpower?

She´s a heck of a lot more vitriolic than anyone else writing about Rice, including our guys...

Further Dowd, Romney didn´t "stumble on Benghazi"....he WAS the only one who called it...correctly!

As I noted elsewhere, susan rice wrote a doctoral dissertation about zimbabwe politics. One of the dirty little tricks of selecting a dissertation topic is to pick one from an obscure part of the world, where the student is the expert.
I once worked with a young woman who wrote her doctoral dissertation on political economy, and she selected a country in South America, and wrote about land ownership. She admitted to me that property deeds in that country were so inaccurate that she simply manufactured her data, and her dissertation committee members signed off on her fake research, having no greater knowledge than she had.
I have this suspicion about susan rice...

Isn´t brown rice supposed to be better for you?

I refuse to read a Dowd column. What I do know is that KT McFarland said Rice was out to avoid having to answer any questions about Benghazi.

Stay classy, #sixteen.

Dowd misplaced "is" in the title.

As much as I can´t stand Dowd, and putting the ridiculous comparison to Condi aside, I think MoDo nailed it on this one. Rice put herself under Obama´s bus.

Call me a sexist, I don´t care, but a woman as a Secretary of State is still a bad idea and will be for the foreseeable future.

So brown rice really isn´t better for you.

Here´s the key words: "...agreed to a National Security Council request to go on all five Sunday shows...". It was that doofus brain-challenged anything the president wants I´ll lie to--Clapper.
