Another Condi jaunt to Iraq and zero to show for it

as i believe i posted a few weeks ago, in a non-apologetic crudity, she's as useless as tits on a boar...
US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice accomplished little or nothing during her recent trip to the Middle East that focused on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. After meeting with principles from both sides, Rice made a short statement and quickly left the region.

"When it came, Condi Rice's post-meeting statement was a study in blandness," the BBC quipped.

Standing alone in front of a blue wall-sized backdrop, Rice spoke briefly about her meeting with the Israeli prime minister and the Palestinian president, saying that all sides agreed problems must be addressed and future meetings were in store, but little else.

but, wait... she DID push them to finalize the oil agreement...

from yesterday's nyt and my post...

Progress


The secretary of state said she told Iraq's leaders to
quickly finalize an oil law and stressed the importance of
rehiring Sunni civil servants.

didja get that...?

"...quickly finalize an oil law..."
