Democrats assail top Bush adviser's (condiliar) speaking tour

"For all its fearmongering on the war on terror, this White House has a greater commitment to its political security than to our national security," said Edwards, who is presidential contender John Kerry (news - web sites)'s running mate.


"Condi Rice shouldn't take the time to go on a campaign trip for George Bush (news - web sites)," Edwards said, pointing to the war in Iraq (news - web sites), the battle against Al-Qaeda and North Korea (news - web sites)'s and Iran's nuclear ambitions.


The Democratic campaign organized a telephone news conference with Zbigniew Brzezinski, former Democratic president Jimmy Carter's national security adviser, who said every security adviser before Rice avoided politicizing the office.


"That represents, at least in my book, excessive politization" of the post, which should remain "objective" despite being connected to the political party in power, Brzezinski said.

1. God forbid she should actually do her job
Oh, we must be incredibly secure right now for her to take time off to campaign. Wait a minute, hasn't she spent the majority of her time in office campaigning? National Security Advisor, campaigning.
Amazing.

4. Ms Rice has always been a fraud
She proves it more conclusively every time she opens her mouth. She is is as false as her title.
