Dr. Rice's "wonderful opportunity" tsunami didn't take in Indonesia



Protestors hold posters of Bashir and U.S. President George W. Bush during a rally outside a court building in Jakarta March 3, 2005.

"I do agree that the tsunami was a wonderful opportunity to show not just the US government, but the heart of the American people, and I think it has paid great dividends for us," (Dr. Rice) said.

Boxer, a sharp critic of Rice's work as national security adviser, quickly took the nominee to task over the characterization of the tsunami as a "wonderful opportunity."

5. funny how those posters are legal in indonesia and illegal in the US
Free speech is not free! Calling for a murderer to be hanged is illegal
in the US, but not in a free country.... the hypocritic irony of it
all.

7. rice is a pathological liar.
along with cheney, rumsfeld, and the chimp, it's best to just assume anything they say is a lie.
