McCain will not choose Condi, and even if he did, she would not accept. 10% of the US may believe, incorrectly, that Obama is muslim, but a much higher number believes that Condi is a lesbian. Obama has had to spend a huge amount of time proving he is a Christian (and many still do not listen); Condi doesn't want to have to do the same thing regarding her sexuality.

You know what's funny Ed? When I clicked on this thread, I saw your name and just couldn't resist your ignorant endorsement of Condi "Can't read a memo" Rice.

What's most pathetic about you is that you judged me and the post before me negatively and rated yourself highly. You are a big fat loser in anyones book.

You really do live up to your name! Getting you all riled up is beyond EASY, Ed!

baHA HA HAH AH HA HA HA HAH AHAHAHAHAH AH AHA

Condi sucks. There...is that on-topic enough for you?
Good stuff!

Hey loser I did not rate myself in anyway. I have stated opinions you do not like. So?
I did not rate you in anyway. Your posts speak far more effectively than I ever could.
Riled up - no. Life is to short and to sweet to allow an idiot to rile me. You do amuse me however. Thanks!!!

I suppose you have proof that she is a lesbian. I find it amazing that if she was a liberal it would never be talked about, or she would be a hero. The only woman in Washington that has not been accused as being a lesbian is Laura Bush. It’s also important to point out that she is a scholar in Russian culture. Russian women are very close to their girl friends. Unlike American women, Russian women are very secure with their sexuality. A friend is a friend. As far as I know they are not lesbians, just very close to other women. To be honest, I could care less if Condi is a transvestite. She is a brilliant woman and is a major asset to this country.

Condi is 100% black & a woman!

obama is 50% black, a racist, and a man!

Does it mean that obama would only get 1/2 the black and 1/2 the black racist vote!?!

or

would Condi & McCain get 100% the women vote and most of the senior vote!?!

I think anyway you slice it - McCain & Condi would be unbeatable because obama will be dumb enough to select hillary or farrahkan as his v.p.!!!

By the way I didn't say she was a lesbian - I said many people believe she is. just like crazy people believe Obama is muslim. That is why I said, she would not want to run and have to deal with all of the rumors. Do a google search and you will see it all over the place, and I am not talking bogus websites, the Times of London, among others has articles asking the question. If she were a lesbian, make me more likely to vote for her; but i doubt it would help among the social conservatives that McCain needs.

Not for anything, but since you decided that her behavior is explainable by her fondness for Russian culture, I thought you might be interested in the fact that one of the news outlets speculating on whether she is a lesbian is Pravda (not a source that I normally rely upon) but I think they should have a good idea of Russian culture. Funny they didn't pick up on the cultural differences. Here is the link http://english.pravda.ru/society/stories/05-1...

I can see the commercials now where McCain is shown saying that Rice is one of those most responsible for the Iraq war debacle.

I believe he made several statements to that effect over the years.

Here is one,

"I think that pursuing the failed strategy and all who were involved in it bear some responsibility, he said. "Of course, I have put responsibility on the president,[former Secretary of Defense Donald] Rumsfeld, as well as Condoleezza Rice and to a lesser degree [Former Secretary of State Colin] Powell."

Kinda gives us Dem's a little bit of ammo don't ya think.

I see a vision of a political add with the good ship Chevron Condoleezza appearing out of a fog bank..........

Nope her nomination for VP will never happen.

Pravda means “the truth” in Russian, not. If you read the Russian version (get someone to translate it for you) of the article it is very poorly translated into Russian. The problem is they copy articles directly from other newspapers from around the world. I was stationed in Moscow and St. Petersburg for 9 years. You can talk to anyone who has spent any time there if it is unusual for women walking down the street holding hands.

Additionally, Pravda has a real problem with Condi. Read this article. http://english.pravda.ru/mailbox/22/101/399/1... I know for a fact she is fluent in Russian. As with most Westerners speaking Russian, she has an accent (about like a Russian speaking English).

This article gives you a complete rundown on what they think of her and what should happen to her (almost peed my pants reading it). http://english.pravda.ru/main/18/88/354/16724... As you can see Pravda has an axe to grind for some reason.

I couldn't care less if Condi Rice was a lesbian, tranny, or an alien. What she is is a Bush crony, considered by many if not most as the least effective national security advisor in the history of our country, and a considerable less that successful Sec. of State. I think consideration has to be given to the fact that she worked for BushCheney for 8years....but if she has the intelligence that she is reported to have, then she should have had the integrity to give up her power position and just LEAVE this administration . Instead, she chose to stay an be part of the problem. This would seem to disqualify her for consideration for future political positions.

I agree but she will not get the black vote in her home state because of the way Bush didn't support Katrina efforts. The people down there are still in trailers...I guess America has forgotten about them. White women don't know nothing about SoS Rice, they probably pay more attention to Mrs. Bush or SoH Pelosi...like most blacks think, some white women think she is just a token to be in that position.But she is a well rounded woman in any color.

If McCain wants to stand any remote chance in he11 he will not pick Condi as his running mate. I would like to see him pick up Lieberman or Edwards, that might sway my vote.

Think we had enough of Haliburton as a vice president now they are suggesting Chevron? Gawd help us all if we have another four more years of Bush policies. Think Elmer will be his choice.
