CONDOLEEZA RICE FLIES A LOT, BROKERS LITTLE

Glenn Kessler of the Washington Post—and author of Confidante, an insider’s account of the relationship between Condoleeza Rice and President Bush—reports on the Secretary of State globetrotting in the twilight of the Bush administration. Kessler goes a bit heavy on the trivia for the morning reader – for example about how Rice is the most traveled Secretary of State of all-time (did you know that if Rice flew commercial she would have racked up 800,000 frequent flier miles?).

Between Israel and Palestine, North Korea, Russia, India and—oh, yeah—Iraq and Afghanistan, Rice has a lot of places to go. But with the bridges the Bush administration has burned, she hasn’t much to accomplish once she gets there.  Read Kessler here.  MB
