How To Succeed At Business Without Really Trying

Bush All-Stars Condi Rice and Stephen Hadley are teaming up to form a foreign policy consulting firm in California.

Two top Bush administration officials whose reputations for strategic acumen were badly damaged by the disasters of the Bush years may be about to market their expertise to private-sector clients.

In September, the RiceHadley Group LLC was registered as a business in California, under a San Francisco address. According to a source, the venture is to be a "strategic consulting" firm, headed by former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and former National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley, and will be launched imminently.

Neither Rice nor Hadley responded to TPMmuckraker's requests for comment.

Oh yes, I forsee millions of people lined up to pay for the same awesome foreign policy advice that Condi Rice and Stephen Hadley provided to George W. Bush.

That's like a meta-national corporation hiring Cobra Commander for financial advice like this:

...wait, that actually explains everything about the Fed.

In all seriousness, if you're a Democrat, a Republican, or a business professional of any sort, are you really going to pay good money to hire Bush's foreign policy team for advice?

I didn't think so.
