"Velvet Hammer"

That's the term being applied to Condolezza Rice in this MSNBC website news link to the Washington Post article about her taking over at the State Department.

She may have changed the direction of State at the top, but there's still a lot of cruft and near-treasonous appeasers in the lower ranks: The attitude at Foggy Bottom (in opposition to the guys out in the field) seems to be to serve other nations in dealing with the United States, rather than serving the United States to deal with other nations.

The difference is significant.

There are too many bastards in the world for me to keep track of. In response to this, God has proposed to keep track of who is deserving of punishment in this life, and promises to page me when He needs me to take out specific individuals. Since I have reason to believe that my spiritual pager is more sensitive than 90% of those held by church leaders, and have noticed that God does not give any task to anyone without promising divine aid and power to carry it out, I find this a mutually satisfactory arrangement that permits me to place my attention on more important matters closer to hand, while retaining the pleasant knowledge that Divine Justice will have its way. Eventually.
