Has the Craig resignation attracted any unsightly trolls?
It was a very interesting political day. Not only did Snow announce, but Virginia Senator John Warner announced he would not seek re-election, and the rumors grew that disgraced Idaho Senator Larry Craig would announce his immediate resignation tomorrow.
Dropping like flies!!!
Just goes to show that a Ph. D. from University of Colorodo in politics or in anything else is not worth a cup of cow shit.
an analysis of Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice’s efforts to “reshape her legacy,” New York Times reporter Helene Cooper notes today that Rice “is trying hard to rewrite her legacy to include something more than Iraq.” As for Iraq, Rice’s “colleagues and friends say that she has accepted that Iraq is a stain that she probably cannot remove before she leaves office.”
Condi, you ain't got a legacy. Your legacy wasn't stained, it was dissolved in an acid bath.
BTW, she isn't a very pianist either. Her playing would make Horowitz blow junks the distance of a concert grand.
As for Iraq, Rice’s “colleagues and friends say that she has accepted that Iraq is a stain that she probably cannot remove before she leaves office.”
I don't know what Rice is worried about.
A certified war criminal like Henry Kissinger is still allowed out in polite society.
batfeast this weekend here in austin. betcha i see a just a few slashW'S.
heh.
A stain? A stain? What a stupid fucking bitch.
Condi, just so we're on the same page: the spot on the Blue Dress was a "stain" ... you are responsible for perpetuating a bloodbath. Just a wee bit of difference there.
I don't normally use this word to describe someone, but she is a cunt.
As for Iraq, Rice’s “colleagues and friends say that she has accepted that Iraq is a stain that she probably cannot remove before she leaves office.”
Just keep washing your hands over and over, over and over. the blood comes off someday.

What now will Tony do? He responded to health questions by saying he received his last scheduled chemo treatment about two weeks ago, the cancer is in check, and he feels good. He hinted that a lecture circuit was in the offing, as is a book or two, maybe some radio and TV. But as Fred Barnes has proposed, and we continue to encourage from afar, Tony needs to go ahead and make a few speeches, but he needs to seriously consider a run for Warner's seat in the Senate.
barfing sounds.

"Here in Idaho, we couldn’t understand how people [in Louisiana] could sit around on the kerbs waiting for the federal government to come and do something. We had a dam break in 1976, but we didn’t whine about it. We got out our backhoes and we rebuilt the roads and replanted the fields and got on with our lives. That’s the culture here. Not waiting for the federal government to bring you drinking water. In Idaho there would have been entrepreneurs selling the drinking water."

The new White House Press Secretary, 34-year old Dana Perino, will take over the post after Tony Snow Steps down on September 14th.
Dana Perino will assume the post of White House Press Secretary next month, but does she have enough experience? She graduated from the University of Southern Colorado in 1994 with a bachelor's degree in mass communications and a minor in both political science
Pretty damned quick rise. Remember to look for stain.

Money is a commodity. Speech isn't. How the two can be equated is beyond me.
Brooklyn Girl
It's like saying you don't have free speech if you can't turn the volume on your boom box up to eleven.
...they still have "boom boxes", right?
Perino was active on the university debate team and with KTSC-TV, the campus-based PBS affiliate station.
So, with one paying TV job and a PBS gig under her belt, this former reporter is set to become the official spokesperson for the United States President.
Her only legacy is in the form of 8x10s. Photo ops was all she accomplished.
Rice stains are easily removed by impeachment and/or the next prez election. But let's impeach NOW!
Rice stains are easily removed by bleaching.
Like Condi doesn't have a prime-time Fox News show all lined up...
Save Bush, Condi is the most incompetent human being on the face of the Earth. How she rose to a position of authority in any capacity anywhere is beyond comprehension.
The funny thing is, I had a few friends who voted for Bush in 2000, and Condi being on his team was a big selling point to them. The fact that she had been a bigshot at Stanford really impressed them back then. Needless to say, they aren't very impressed now, the chumps.
Pretty damned quick rise. Remember to look for stain.
rMatey,
Someday, in the archives of Bush II, they will find a box full of teacher's attendance/grade books, used for the "voluntary" Bible study groups in this White House. I'm guessing Dana, Abu Gonzo, David Petraeeus and a bunch of the monkeys from this barrell will have lots of gold stars. I'm convinced that's how Bush decides to promote people.
Maybe that's why the State Dept. isn't rejecting the GAO report like Brookings and the DOD.
.
callous, uncaring, detached lot the people serving in this administration (and their supporters) are.

Dear Condi:
You can't rewrite your legacy. You might be able to improve it in the rest of your days -- but
as a Secretary of State, you're almost singularly free
of accomplishments.
For the record: Rice received her B.A. and Ph.D. from the University of Denver. She got her Masters at Notre Dame. She did not attend the University of Colorado.
she's good at wacking people down. she enjoys it. tough & pretty but on the wrong team.
later,to the batmobile.
tough and pretty, in a homely kinda way.
Does anyone here have a link to how much each state contributes in federal taxes and how much each state gets back?
enkw.
Can't forget last summer's Lebanese war as part of "the birth pangs of a new Middle East."
She's a moral leper.
Perino - con't.
It may have been a good time to bring in a person with experience, but that does not always seem to be a priority with the Bush Administration. The president is famous for giving jobs to his friends, but he doesn't always match people up with their skills, so to speak.
So while it may not be overly surprising, it is still a curious strategy that a spokesperson with a background in medium-market TV news was selected to represent the U.S. President.
Amid speculation that the White Press Corps is going to "eat her alive," others say she will just be the latest in line to filter questions and deflect attempts to answer the ones that would cast the administration in a harsh light.
At five foot, one inch, it seems inevitable that Dana Perino is going to have her hands full, representing a highly controversial president in the final year of his term.

Yeehah! I just picked over 10 lbs. of tomatoes from my vines and that's only about half of what's ripe. I haven't had such a good harvest from my little patch in years. They're lovely, too. It's almost a shame to turn them into ratatouille, but there's just too many to eat fresh. I wish they wouldn't all come in at once like this. I tried getting earlier and later types of vines, but they just all seem to ripen at the same time anyway. Oh well, worse things could happen...

Rice will manage Iraq's 'new phase'
WASHINGTON — President Bush is giving his national security adviser, Condoleezza Rice, the authority to manage postwar Iraq and the rebuilding of Afghanistan.
While some saw it as a sign of frustration with the handling of postwar efforts, Bush and other officials said the move is a logical next step and reflected no dissatisfaction with progress. "We want to cut through the red tape and make sure that we're getting the assistance there quickly so that they can carry out their priorities," Bush spokesman Scott McClellan said. "It's a new phase, a different phase we're entering."
Rice will head the Iraq Stabilization Group, which will have coordinating committees on counterterrorism, economic development, political affairs and media messages. Each committee will be headed by a Rice deputy and include representatives of the State, Defense and Treasury departments and the CIA. … The new structure will give Bush's top White House aides a stronger voice in decisions and will make the president more directly accountable. Because of their close relationship, many people will assume Bush signed off on Rice's decisions. ..
President Bush also weighed in on the reason for his decision.
Rice "is going to make sure that the efforts continue to be coordinated so that we continue to make progress," Bush said at a news conference with President Mwai Kibaki of Kenya. "And listen, we're making good progress in Iraq. Sometimes it's hard to tell it when you listen to the filter" of the news media.
Oh, I forgot. Never mind.

May 18, 2004
With all the chaos and uncertainty in Iraq, this would be a good time to call on the White House's Iraq Stabilization Group. At least it would have been a good time to call on the Stabilization Group if the group itself had not become, er, unstable.
President Bush and his aides announced with some fanfare in October that they were creating the Iraq Stabilization Group within the National Security Council to increase the White House's role in coordinating Iraq policy. "We're trying to mobilize the entire U.S. government to support this effort" in Iraq, national security adviser Condoleezza Rice said at the time.
But seven months later, the four original leaders of the Stabilization Group have taken on new roles, and only one remains concerned primarily with Iraq. A search of the White House Web site indicates the phrase "Iraq Stabilization Group" has not been mentioned publicly since October. …
"The White House has ordered a major reorganization of American efforts to quell violence in Iraq and Afghanistan and to speed the reconstruction," the New York Times trumpeted on its front page on Oct. 6. The Iraq Stabilization Group, led by Rice, was called an effort to assert more White House control over Iraq and to reduce the Pentagon's role.
"We're making good progress in Iraq," Bush said when asked about the group then. "Condi's team is going to make sure that the efforts continue to be coordinated so that we continue to make progress."
Her failure to evaluate her own incompetence and resign on September 12, 2001, is the first speck of what has become the expanding stain of her ongoing career of failure. I say this with all appropriate love and affection.
Cheney and Rummy ran the forign policy, I only blame her for the face for the policy.
Lumpenprolitariot
No distinction.
From the NY Daily News:
She does let her hair down. Once at a party Blacker threw, Condi kicked off her shoes and started dancing. Wanting to show his partner how firm Rice's behind was, Blacker postulated that if he aimed a quarter at her butt, it would bounce right off like a rocket.
"He was right," says Kessler. "[Rice] didn't realize what he had done until everyone was laughing hysterically. She was flattered and proud."
Blood on her hands does not equal "stain" Perhaps "damn spot" is more approprite then followed by madness and public disdain. She will be quite unforgiven.
Of course none of these criminals will ever be brought to justice. Not one. Ever. In that regard Iraq is just like Vietnam.
Condi's new book title.
"Slammed a plane into the WTC, who'd of thunk it?"
Or how about:
"My Pal Ashcroft taugh 9/11 commisioner Jamie Gorlick a lesson for messing with me - Rice shows how to be the nastiest bitch in DC."
Well, sure, Iraq is a stain. But speaking of stains...BILL CLINTON.
So we're even
"WHAT fucking "legacy"?"
"When has Condi Rice EVER done her job. Enlighten me."
-
MisterX
-I got nothing.
Don't worry, Condi. The rest of your legacy is so foul no one will notice the stain.
how does war in iraq compare to clinton & his sexual adventures?
no partisanship, please just answer this as human beings.
