All of them? Do you really think Condy Rice will be an improvement over Colin
Powell?

Powell ultimately left because no one would listen to him, and he was shut out
of the inner circle. He was the voice of reason in many cases. Rice is
nothing but a yes-(wo)man.

Well, Rice is more likely to get indicted and removed from power
in her new position, so in a round-about way, yes.
