Sheesh! Sometimes a meme’s time has really come. A couple hours ago I quoted a blurb in US News’ Washington Whispers column about how Condi Rice might end up taking the fall for the recent intel unpleasantness. (And not a Tenet/Hadley style fall. I mean a real fall, as in losing her job.) I said that jibed with a lot of what I’d been in hearing in recent weeks and months, though I thought the complaints about Rice went far beyond the uranium flap. Now I hop over to the Washington Post website and see this article (“Iraq Flap Shakes Rice’s Image”) on the front page of tomorrow’s paper.
