Rice should have known!

[elleng]

Rice, in her first appearance in Washington since leaving government, was at the Jewish Primary Day School of the Nation's Capital before giving an evening lecture at the Sixth & I Historic Synagogue. She held forth amiably before a few dozen students about her love of Israel, travel abroad and the importance of learning languages, then opened the floor to their questions.

Then Misha Lerner, a student from Bethesda, asked: What did Rice think about the things President Obama's administration was saying about the methods the Bush administration had used to get information from detainees?

. . . Misha's mother, Inna Lerner, said the question her son had initially come up with was even tougher: "If you would work for Obama's administration, would you push for torture?"

1. Oh, she knew because she was involved in the decison making.

I think she thought it would never come back to haunt her.

2. My point was

she should have known she'd get such a question at an urban Jewish school! Not in Kansas anymore, Toto!

3. I so wish

Pelosi would visit that school.

4. I know, a lot of granola Jews send their kids to that school. nt
