MEDFORD, Mass. (AP) - Former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright (news - web sites) on Sunday accused President Bush (news - web sites)'s foreign policy team of suffering from "untreated bipolar disorder."
Albright said the Bush administration is projecting contradictory messages on a broad range of global conflicts, including the Middle East and Afghanistan (news - web sites).
"They talk about the importance of the rule of law, but seem allergic to treaties designed to strengthen the rule of law in areas such as money-laundering, biological weapons, crimes against humanity, and the environment," Albright said in a commencement speech at Tufts University's Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy.
"This split personality is also evident in Afghanistan, where one day they are ridiculing nation-building and the next proposing a new Marshall Plan," Albright told the 189 graduates. "And in the Middle East, where the signals have varied day by day."
