polite, well-spoken, yes, Condi is.
Him being obnoxious, and certainly rude - yes. but SOB??
what you described was their style.
"well informed" for condi - i think she might even agree she was not "well informed" with Intelligence as they lead us into the invasion of Iraq.
Regardless of the style of these two people - which I agree Condi is quite a bit more sophisticated and serious than whatzizname- their differences in style and demeanor don't make a hill of beans difference to me in judging how she did her job. Style now vs. doing her very important job almost 10 years ago. How she did her job is what is important, and I know hindsight is 20/20, but how do you rate her at doing her job 10 years ago? I don't think she did a very good job.
