#2 Who's Condoleezza Rice?

#3 Currently Ms Rice is the director of Stanford’s Hoover Institution, but she made her name as George W. Bush’s National Security Advisor, and then his Secretary of State. Before that she was a poli sci professor, specializing in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. You may recall the fuss made because she was the highest ranked African American woman ever in the presidential succession.

#4 #3 Didn't she want to be a commissioner of NFL, or something?

#5 Baseball, I seem to recall, but I don’t know for sure. I think she was, for a bit, but then went back to academia.

#6 I always had a good deal of respect for Ms. Rice. She seemed to be the smartest person in the room during the Bush years.

Then again, the bar was pretty low during some of them.

#7 When it was her and Bush in the room, she most certainly was.

#8 Putin will have lost all credibility if he does not respond, not only with Westerners, but with his own people. He will be seen as weak, cowardly and ineffective. He will be seen as a loser. Some young and aggressive group of Russian leaders will decide it's time for a new generation to take the reins of power in Moscow. Putin will be in fear for his own life and he may even lose it.

Maybe that's what American and Western European globalist want but when it happens it might not go the way they hope it will.

This is madness. This is how wars get completely out of control.
