Slate has an interesting commentary (by Fred Kaplan) on Condoleeza Rice's testimony at
http://slate.msn.com/id/2098499/
Here's a part of it:
One clear inference can be drawn from Condoleezza Rice's testimony before the 9/11 commission this morning: She has been a bad national security adviser—passive, sluggish, and either unable or unwilling to tie the loose strands of the bureaucracy into a sensible vision or policy. In short, she has not done what national security advisers are supposed to do.
Of course that's easy for me to say, since I recently discovered who I am:
Galadriel
Possessing a rare combination of wisdom and humility, while serenely dominating your environment you selflessly use your powers to care for others.
Even the smallest person can change the course of the future.
Which leads to further speculation--Who would Condi have been in LOTR? Wormtongue? Is Bush Saruman to Cheney's Sauron? Is Kerry Aragorn or Frodo? And who is Tom Bombadil?
