I agree with Kathryn. I have not been shy about objecting strongly when merited to things Chavez has written, but in this case Tyrrell is just wrong. When Chavez said that Condi Rice is not the type of person who usually goes to Norquist’s meeting, undoubtedly she meant only that it is unusual for a Secretary of State–as opposed to, say, an OMB director or Secretary of the Treasury–to attend. She was right, and nothing slighting was meant.
