what was it he said when Reagan was shot? "I'm in charge now."

:wtf:

Isn't SoS like 4th or 5th in the line of succession?

That's just scary.

3. Yup, That Was The One
Someone didn't pay attention in government class.

It goes...

President
Vice President
Speaker of the House
President pro tempore of the Senate

and THEN...

Secretary of State.

5. Kissinger, for sure. But, Allbright deserves special mention.
For her part in preventing the UN from acting in Rwanda and the aid given to the new dicator in Congo.

6. Kissinger, Baker, Haig
Would be my top three. Kissinger by far the worst; Baker and Haig being not much better.

7. My opinion is meaningless
since I don't know most of those above. But I have to say, Democrat though she may be, Madeleine Albright's comment that half a million dead Iraqis was "worth it" was quite unbelievably callous. I have to ask what is in the mind of somebody who can say something like that.

Government must be a very dangerous place to be if you care to maintain your morality.
