Bush declares hard-line stance on foreign policy
'Freedom fries' back on the menu.

By naming nanny, chronic liar and worthless national security adviser Condoleezza Rice as Colin Powell's replacement , the neocons effectively give the unsolicited finger to the world.

Moreover, in elevating Rice, Bush is signaling that he is comfortable with the direction of the past four years and sees little need to dramatically shift course. Powell has had conversations for six months with Bush about the need for a "new team" in foreign policy, a senior State Department official said. But in the end only the key official who did not mesh well with the others - Powell - is leaving.
