The conservative mind at work

In a previous post I included Condi's tortuous response to the yes/no question, "Is waterboarding torture in your opinion?"

During the same confrontation with Stanford students ...
Rice declared that al Qaeda is a greater threat to the United States than Nazi Germany was because "Nazi Germany never attacked the homeland of the United States."
[LEEZZY VS. STANFORD STUDENT OVER TORTURE: Dorm resident gets Rice riled up; she defends waterboarding as legal.]
An identical argument would suggest that Condi believes al Qaeda is a greater threat to the U.S. than was the Soviet Union... We were NEVER in a shooting war with the USSR! - and the Soviet Union certainly "NEVER attacked the homeland of the United States."

Would she accept this argument?
Let's ask her. Here's her contact info:
work phone: (650) 723-6867

mailing address: Hoover Institution
Stanford, California 94305-6010
I'll send her a letter.
