Condi lost the last bit of respect I had for her

She consistently has been proving to be ineffective and being a parrot on Bush's shoulders. Some of the revelations in Bob Woodward's book shows how ineffective she is. I had a lot of respect for her couple of years ago. But it has steadily declined and now I just don't have anything to appreciate her for. What led to the decline? The top 3 things:

1. When the 9/11 commission asked her about the intel document that said terrorists are planning to use planes to attack, she merely said it was an historical document and nothing was new. Couple of months later, the terrorists hijack planes and the rest is history. How could someone at her level do or say that?

2. During the Israel/Lebanon conflict, she again proved to be ineffective to do anything to stop the violence and the civilian deaths. She kept saying the condition isn't conducive/ready to discuss peace. What the fuck? Hundreds of people are dying on both sides and what an irresposible thing to do or say. Yes, wars have collateral damage but ignoring the conditions on the ground is just plain wrong

3. In recent days, Bob Woodward's in his book says that she ignored or did nothing to DCI/Counterterrorisom Deputy's serious concerns about Al Qaeda's plan to attack months before 9/11. This meeting is confirmed by Sean McCormak/George Tenet/Black etc but she still has no recollection of it and claims she would have acted on it if she had known about it. Yeah right. Do you expect OBL to come to you to give out the plans in order for you to Act?

You sure aren't getting my vote if you run for Office. I ran across this blog which reflects what I am thinking:
Rice acknowledged Sunday that the White House was receiving a "steady stream of quite alarmist reports of potential attacks" during daily meetings from Tenet during that period. But she said the targets were assumed to be in the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Israel and Jordan. She said no reports mentioned the United States.
"What I am quite certain of, however, is that I would remember if I was told -- as this account apparently says -- that there was about to be an attack in the United States. The idea that I would somehow have ignored that I find incomprehensible," she told reporters.
Rice said her staff is now going back to check if there even was a meeting on July 10, 2001."
This is a woman who in 2002 was telling us in press briefings that there was "no way" anyone could have predicted that terrorists would use airplanes as weapons... but who in August, 2001 read a briefing that said that al Qaeda was planning a major strike against the US that could involve hijacking of airplanes.
There's a convenient list of Rice's incorrect statements to the 9/11 Commission here, if you're curious. It certainly sheds some light on why she was so resistant to testifying to the commission under oath (which she did, in the end, do).
After watching her for years, it's easy to see the pattern: when something goes wrong on her watch, she looks for someone to blame, and makes things up to support it... complete with an indignant complaint that people are impugning her integrity.
This isn't what we should expect from a secretary of state. This is behavior better suited to a petulant sixth-grader who's been caught not doing her homework and is looking for a convenient dog to accuse of eating it.
