In reply to the discussion: New blow for Rice: Moderate senator voices concern [View all]AldoLeopold
(617 posts)24. The pipeline investments are of more concern to me
And coupled with the Canadian connection (though she can hardly help who's she's married to) SHOULD have prompted her to divest herself from the pipeline well ahead of this. She may have had no sinister plans, but the sheer naivete as to the implications of these involvements should have clued her in that this would be a problem.
I don't ask for a saint, but I do request that the person in this position have some basic political acumen. She's in the wrong business - politics.
