...bayou blunders also intruded on a pre-summit visit Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice paid to Arthur Ochs Sulzberger Jr., publisher of The New York Times, and his "publishers luncheon." She was asked about the possibility that Katrina had fueled perceptions "that George Bush doesn't care about black people." Rice said it was "poisonous" for someone to suggest that the president would decide who ought to be helped on the basis of color. "You know the phrase that actually attracted me to him more than anything else didn't have anything to do with foreign policy-it was actually...
...Condi Under Pressure "The Condi Doctrine" compared U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice with George Marshall, the U.S. Secretary of State responsible for the Marshall Plan, which helped rebuild Europe in the aftermath of World War II [Aug. 15-22]. The Marshall Plan helped restore Europe after a devastating war by relieving, as Marshall put it, "hunger, poverty, desperation and chaos." The Condi (and Bush) doctrine attempts to restore Iraq by forcing democracy down Iraqis' throats, using coercion and military occupation.

...days after Hurricane Katrina trashed the Gulf Coast, a radio talk-show host in Los Angeles asked Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice if it was true that President Bush does not care about black people. (She said no.) A man standing in the ruins in Gulfport, Miss., told the Vice President, "Go f___ yourself." (He smiled.) And the mayor of New Orleans secretly decamped for much of the week to Dallas to install his family there, refusing most media interviews, although the bodies had only begun to be counted in his drowned city. Even as soldiers swarmed into the Gulf...
...Bush era begins to wane, some remaining aides lack the chops to set him right when he is off course. Several of his closest advisers--including Condoleezza Rice, Alberto Gonzales and Karen Hughes--have left the West Wing for Cabinet posts or jobs in other agencies. His chief of staff, Andrew Card, has never been mistaken for James Baker, the man who made a minor career out of setting Bush's father right. And Bush has filled a number of lesser spots around the government with political hacks and patronage candidates--most embarrassingly Michael Brown, director of the Federal Emergency...
