Colin Powell was SoS for the 1st term, when we invaded. Rice was National Security Advisor to the president.

My point is that her tenure in the executive branch extended beyond her involvement in the Iraq War. As SoS, she was also involved in Africa policy, led a push for proactive diplomacy, etc.

In addition, the comments about hiring Rice to secure government contracts is absurd in the opposite direction.
