Here we go AGAIN...but with the failing war in Iraq, and the lack of troops, could they be possibly be THIS DUMB?? These people need to go and NOW!! They all need to be impeached in my opinion. THEY ARE CRAZY NEOCONS and they are bringing our country to the very brink of destruction.

Also note the lone protestor who was escorted out. Brave woman.

WASHINGTON - Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice on Wednesday refused to rule out the possibility of...U.S. military force against Syria and Iran...Lawmakers also pressed Rice on strategy for dealing with Iran and Syria, two of Iraq's neighbors. U.S. officials have accused Syria of allowing foreign fighters to cross into Iraq. The Bush administration contends Iran is supporting the Iraqi insurgency.

Rice said the U.S. was using diplomacy to urge a change in the behavior of Syria and Iran. But she stopped short of ruling out military force. "I'm not going to get into what the president's options might be," Rice said. "I don't think the president ever takes any of his options off the table concerning anything to do with military force."

The senators' questioning followed Rice's earlier remark that Syria and Iran "must decide whether they wish to side with the cause of war or with the cause of peace."

As Rice spoke, a woman in the second row of spectators shouted "Stop the killing in Iraq." A police officer motioned her out of the room.
