Merriam Webster defines "Uncle Tom" as --

Main Entry: 1Uncle Tom
Pronunciation: -'täm
Function: noun

Etymology: Uncle Tom, pious and faithful black slave in Uncle Tom's Cabin (1851-52) by Harriet Beecher Stowe

1 : a black who is overeager to win the approval of whites (as by obsequious behavior or uncritical acceptance of white values and goals)

2 : a member of a low-status group who is overly subservient to or cooperative with authority

Sec. Rice fulfills none of those criteria. So, the use of that term, though visually interesting, is incorrect.

I suggest a more appropriate adjective would be a dangerously incorrect woman with a deliberately incorrect view of how to handle the global threat of terrorism.
