Powell is the de facto Secretary of State until Rice is confirmed.
The facts speak for themselves - pressure IS being applied. You'll need to find a new theory to justify your Bush hatred. I will also note that those who speak the loudest about the race of this or that person - or the supposed racism of this or that person - are usually the racists themselves. Put that it in your pipe and smoke it.

ACTUALLY the US has turned up the heat on Putin, and he is livid. Powell just appeared in the UN and administered a verbal beating. The European nations and Canada are doing their part as well...
Meanwhile Putin just got a victory at home - regional Russian Governers will no longer be elected but *appointed*.
CANADA?
Powell just got fired. And Bush could care less because putting pressure on Putin doesn't square with his theocratic paradigm of crusading against little brown people who own lots of oil.
A setback for global democracy. You think Bush will do anything but kiss Putin's ass while he reinstalls authoritarian / Moscow-controlled regimes in eastern Euro states? Sad.
I just bought a pair of these and really like them. They're real light and comfortable for my feet. I used them in the Rockies, where everything is so dry, waterproofness is not as much of an issue as it might be out here so I can't comment on that yet. Alex also has a pair and he said that they hurt his toes when he's walking downhill and he has wide feet. I didn't have this problem though.
BTW, it's still not that bad, but there is better.
But still better than your mom's. Or your sister's for that matter.
How unoriginal. But from a Steve Perry fan, what can you expect.
Don't Stop Believin' it though.
