OK. Her
Unified Theory on Terrorism certainly does, I suppose, make her an expert on Iraq. I'm sure that with the apprehension of Saddam, and by extension the end of state-sponsored terrorism, she's been spending the time since smoking a congratulatory cigarette the size of Apollo 11.
(I will also add that her namby-pamby Harvard and Cornell credentials make her a suspected member of the card-carrying "cultural elite" that GWB has little time for, so I wouldn't wave that particular flag too highly.)
