"Magnificent and admirable? That's not the way history will see Condi.

Depends on whether the historian is telling hisstory or her story.

"Clearly, she is an intelligent and accomplished woman."

Unquestionably. Finally you are recognizing some facts.

"However, she did not do a great job as Sec. of State."

Wrong.

"I understand that Cheney created all kinds of problems for her."

Like what?

"But what she will be remembered most for is her insensitivity towards the people of NOLA, many of whom are black."
