US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has told the BBC she believes the Middle East is a better place for the policies of President George W Bush.

Asked to assess the outgoing US administration's legacy, she said she was especially proud of the situation in the Palestinian territories.

She insisted that what she called a US-inspired "freedom agenda" had taken hold in the Middle East.

Ms Rice also said Iraq had become a "good Arab friend" of America.

3. Freedom does not have to be 'inspired' by the likes of

a dumbass named bush. What's so different in the Palestinian territories and how did bush make it better? Just saying something doesn't make it so.

4. Goodbye, Condi. And good riddance.

May you never disgrace public life again.

Go crawl into a well-compensated neocon think tank hole somewhere, and never come out.

11. Condi can't wear her expensive boots

down the streets of Baghdad.

She needs to go back to the dark hole she came from and stay there. She is responsible for the many disasters that have destroyed our military and destroyed Iraq.
