Would Condoleeza Rice make a good VP?

Would Condoleeza Rice make a good vice president?

Some are saying John McCain should select her as his running mate.

Her foriegn nation experience would give McCain some edge in that department. She also has a level head and some really wonderful ways to diffuse heated diplomatic situations. I think she would be good.

Not the best, but she would be top cut at least.

Re: Would Condoleeza Rice make a good VP?

I think she would be a good choice, she has a lot going for her in experience, character and image. It would also set her up to be the first woman president which would be an infinitely better choice than Hillary. The downside would be the fact that she is connected to the Bush administration. That alone may take her out of serious contention.

Considering that she had 48% of the Republican vote, in December, as ideal for the Presidency, I thinking she would get good support for VP.

Level head? Good character? Experience with Russians and Israel? Have I missed something? She helped get us into war in Iraq. I haven't noticed peace breaking out with either the Russians or the Palestinians. Helped hide the secret torture dens around the world. Lied to Congress on numerous occasions. Is purported to be a Lesbian since her years in college administration. (which is why she won't talk about running for an elective office, which she's never done) And I'm surprised to see any of you saying being a musician would helpful to being president. Didn't help Bill!!!!

Since those "Secret Torture Dens around the world" are no longer "secret" would you care to identify a single one and to also identify who the victims of this "torture" were?

Can't do that can you? Just making stuff up and exaggerating the claims made the Left aren't we? Since when is yelling and loud music "torture?" Ever been to an Apostolic camp meeting?

Some of the "dens" are still secret but those indentified are France, Libya, Egypt, Qatar, and South Africa. I don't make stuff up just to justify a story. If you have the nerve read the latest "Washington Monthly". Totally about our torture and the spots they were done. Quotes by numerous Republican, administration, Democratic, and military participants on the futility, inaccuracy, and un-American actions being taken in the name of "security". It seems our military, prior to 9/11, had determined that information given under torture is unreliable and usually inaccurate. Seems the tortured will say anything to get the pain to stop.

I hear your point... but there are 2 things to consider:

Professional interrogators have ways of vetting the information they get, to judge whether the intel is authentic or not.

Besides, if we had captured a couple of terrorists on 9/10/01... and torturing them ended up preventing the horror of September 11th, I think I'd be okay with that. And if torturing one person ends up saving the lives of thousands, in the end I think I can still sleep pretty well at night.

Well, I had the nerve to google "Washington Monthly" and I think I found you recommended journal. I even had the nerve to read down the list of articles but didn't find anything about "secret prisons." Going through the links proved exhausting, boring and fruitless.

Totally what? How about a link? Either that or I'm calling your doctor.

And quoting mining is a serious past time for journalists. How about you give me some examples of "the futility, inaccuracy, and un-American actions being taken in the name of "security""?

"Futility?" It's a dangerous world and I'm sure we'll find some common ground on that point. The rest of the anti-American diatribe? I'm still waiting.

"Totally"??? Here's the link I found. What are you looking at? We need some examples of US government authorized and sanctioned torture post 9/11. Give me these examples so that I can register my complaint with my congressman.
