I'm not sure if there's a Counselor right now, or if so who it might be. state.gov is no help. Anyway, Cohen isn't in the Department anymore, so this article needs an update of some kind. Melchoir ( talk) 08:17, 10 May 2009 (UTC) reply

The article has been subsequently updated to reflect the appointment of Cheryl Mills as Counselor of the State Department. -- TommyBoy ( talk) 01:46, 15 September 2010 (UTC) reply
