Condi orders diplomats to volunteer or else

Apparently the State Department can't coax enough diplomatic staff to volunteer for the sunny skies, palm trees and nearly daily mortar attacks in Baghdad. So she's warned, through an underling of course, that she'll soon have to start ordering them to serve if they don't start cooperating.

Harry Thomas, director general of the Foreign Service, said Friday:

"If someone decides ... they do not want to go, we will then consider appropriate action," he said. "We have many options, including dismissal from the Foreign Service."

Some friendly waterboarding is probably one of those "options".
