In early 2003, former [[First Lady]] and now Senator [[Hillary Rodham Clinton]] spoke of disarming [[Saddam Hussein]]: "this is something that I have followed for a decade. If he were serious about disarming he would have been much more forthcoming...there is no accounting for the chemical and biological stocks."  Dr. Rice repeated these sentiments in an article in the ''[[New York Times]]'' entitled ''Why We Know Iraq Is Lying,'' "instead of implementing national initiatives to disarm, Iraq maintains institutions whose sole purpose is to thwart the work of the inspectors."[http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2003/01/20030123-1.html]

Leading up to the 2004 U.S. Presidential election, Rice campaigned for the incumbent president. She used this moment to state her belief that Saddam's government in Iraq contributed to the instability that produced the opportunity for a terrorist attack like the 9/11 attacks on America. At a Pittsburgh, she said "While Saddam Hussein had nothing to do with the actual attacks on America, Saddam Hussein's Iraq was a part of the Middle East that was festering and unstable, [and] was part of the circumstances that created the problem on September 11."

At a Pittsburgh, she said "Sure, Saddam wasn't responsible in the attacks.  Sure, his Iraqi government, while unstable, was no threat to us.  But if we don't keep lumping the blame on them, that means we'll have to put it where it belongs-on Al-Quaeda and on us!! And nobody wants that." Condoleeza immediately left when every reporter there (save for a fox news reporter) voted that Al-Quaeda and the Bush administration should be blamed.
