Condoleeza Rice on Ukraine, Germany and Russia



NOW I get it.

"You simply wanna change the structure of energy dependence. You want to depend more on the North American energy platform, the tremendous bounty of oil and gas that we are finding in North America!"

America, at its best, is a problem-solving nation. And our continued commitment to renovating and defending the global order will determine whether we build a future of peace, progress and prosperity in which people everywhere have the opportunity to live up to their God-given potential.

Dr. Rice, you didn't mention alternative energy technology once.

And even if there really is a "tremendous bounty of oil and gas" in North America, how long will it last and are you talking about oil that must be extracted though hydraulic fracturing, a technology that makes nuclear power look as clean and safe as a water wheel?

I'm sorry Dr. Rice, you don't sound like an honest broker to me. You sound like a person who has an oil tanker named after her and who has a history as an architect of the Bush Junta's war against Iraq.
