I am responding to Melanie's post
I agree with you when you said that there are not many examples of women leaders, but then you went on to list all of these women who have done good things. So a couple great people means all women are good leaders? Anyone can pick out a good person out of a crowd . Martin Luther King, Abraham Lincoln, Jesus, there have been many more influential males than females in this world because the world is sexist. Not every person put in charge will be great, man or woman.
What makes women so much more "empathetic"? In a time of crisis where does empathy not fall under a weakness? The world is a hard and demanding, we do not have time to think about the feelings of the men who drove planes into the world trade center or who strapped bombs to their chest and walked into a strip mall. We need them to stop doing these horrible things and sitting down in a circle and talking about feelings and motive are a lot less productive than what we did in Iraq. Almost everyone now agrees that we need to leave and it was a bad choice on Bush's part, but everyone wanted us in there at the beginning.
Condoleezza Rice was or is pro war in Iraq. Her standing on this,
Dr Rice defended the Bush Administration's decision to go to war against Iraq, pledged that she would personally get involved to restart the Middle East peace process
since when does war promote peace?
