Hateful Lefties bashing Condi....

GG, do you ever spend any time moderating instead of posting?

Oh, sure.

BTW, care to comment on my topic? Or...not so much?

Thing about it is...it's going to DESTROY a good Rightwing Media talking point...that "Liberals hate and/or fear Condi as Veep"....when you have "NATIONAL REVIEW" saying she's a bad choice.

I figure the ditto-heads and Hannitzed and Becker-heads are a little confused. :)
 
My comment? I think she's a GREAT choice.

National Review disagrees.

Naturally this won't stop the Talking Point of "Lefties hate Condi, are/will be smearing her!"

In fact, I've already been accused of "smearing" her....by linking to NR...a RIGHTWING publication.

As Doc will tell you....it's pretty easy for me to figure out what the Right will do in most circumstances. :)
 
Condoleeza Rice campaigned for the ambassadorship to Russia under Clinton, when she was vetted and turned down, she went Republican, she returned as provost at Stanford and experienced, thru her administrative work there, one of the most memorable campus protests due to the firing of cleaning workers at the university, She instituted draconian measures to get kids back in the classroom, and was finally overruled by the dean of students.

She is a learned Sovietist by profession, she was engaged by Dick Schultz to school George W Bush in the networking of relationships in Eastern Europe relative to US foreign policy with Russia.

She and Rumsfeld were beating the drums on China before 9/11; there was no talk in State or the Pentagon about the middle east, in fact, one of the chief architects to dismantle the counter terrorism group put in place by Clinton was Condoleeza Rice and her deputy, whose name escapes me now.

Condi Rice is a Sovietist; there is no need for more academic and unskilled labor like hers in either state nor the Vice Presidency; I truly do not see how Condoleeza Rice can either work with the Senate, nor work on behalf of the office of the presidency to promote foreign policy.

Condoleeza Rice belongs in a lecture hall discussing Soviet history and the affects it has on Russia's free market principles and it's influence in the world today.

I find that giving a person a second chance at a job, when they failed so miserably the first time, is an indictment of those who are hiring; again Mitt Romney fails to prove he understands how to lead this nation.

And I would say, in this case? this is Affirmative Action, at it's very worst.

I'd rather see Baker as the Veep choice if the agenda is foreign policy,

Pace

you call this a smear?
 
Gordon was accused of smearing her on another thread for simply posting this link to a NR article. I saw it. Dumb, but true.

And now perhaps you are beginning to see that true conservatives are not slaves to their media like the MSNBC drones.

You're not alone Char

Many of those same attendees said the star speaker of the weekend was former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who received and a standing ovation. Ambassador Charles Cobb, who served as ambassador to Iceland from 1989 to 1992, said Rice was “spectacular” and described her as a “very bright, sophisticated, articulate lady.”

Husband-and-wife donors from Los Angeles who did not want to be identified said Rice’s message was one of “America needing to take charge.”

“We can’t stand by and let things happen,” the wife said. “If we do, someone else will take that leadership role.”

They both described her address as an “impassioned plea” for the country to “stand up and take charge.”

Donor Kent Lucken, an international banker in Boston who moved back to his home state of Iowa for six weeks before the caucuses to help Romney, said “she rocked it.”

BRU, Romney people are now "walking back" the idea that Mitt would pick Condi.

It was a conjob...or "trial balloon" if you want to be generous...apparently SOME around here fell for it...or if you want to be generous, abetted it. :)

So then, I'm curious... What exactly is it that we're supposed to be "taking charge" of?
