Hawkish：鷹派的，強硬派的

11月15日，美國總統(tǒng)布什任命國家安全顧問賴斯為國務(wù)卿，接替辭職的鮑威爾。除鮑威爾外，美國教育部長佩齊、農(nóng)業(yè)部長維尼曼和能源部長斯潘塞·亞伯拉罕也遞交了辭呈。至此，繼上周美國司法部長約翰·阿什克羅夫特和商務(wù)部長唐·埃文斯雙雙正式辭職后，布什政府的15名內(nèi)閣成員中已有6名“重臣”離去。請看下面的報道：US President Bush has chosen his national security adviser Condoleezza Rice to replace Colin Powell as secretary of state in his second term, a senior administration official said Monday.

Powell, a retired four-star general who often clashed with more hawkish members of the administration on Iraq and other foreign policy issues, resigned in a Cabinet exodus that promises a starkly different look to US President Bush's second-term team.
