Condi: So far I haven't seen the Iraqis make a compromise as bad as the one in 1789 (?) that made my ancestors 3/5ths of a man.

Peach, did she really say that?!

Coleman opens saying he's glad Kerry is back "over there".

Kerry interrupts to "jokingly" say there's a unanimity of that sentiment over there so just pass a resolution and "move on".

Coleman references his own foreign travels and other countries who are helping us. Mentions India in particular and how their PM said relations with U.S. have never been better. He did not get the sense of being rebuffed that was just alleged.

Other than wanting to make a grand entrace befitting a loser, he was trying to decide whether he was for or against

Sen. Norm Coleman is up now--GREAT line--"Some of us are overjoyed to have Senator Kerry back with us". Chalk one up for our side!

We are so fortunate to have avoided the snot-nosed know-it-all Kerry as prez. Frankly, were it not for his moments of arm-waving today in front of the cameras, I don't imagine he would have bothered to come to work today.

Yes. She really did say that. She said she often cites that as an example. That neither the Iraqis nor Afghanis have made as bad a compromise as her ancestors who were declared 3/5ths (3/4ths?) of a man.

He made a great joke about Kerry and then attacked his suggestions about India and the EU.

Are you kidding? Allawi wouldn't met with him? Well, will wonders never cease? Perhaps "leaders" know a traitor when they see one!

Kerry just doesn't stop. Now he agrees with Dr. Rice's reply, but it isn't happening on Kerry's timeline.

It was just like towards the end of the campaign when his new mantra became that he'd do everything exactly the way President Bush was doing it, only faster. Whatta putz!

I'm glad you caught that. Basically called Kerry a liar with that statement.

That's right. What happened in Afghanistan has not had enough PR.

"Come on HORSEFACE, I want to go to lunch!!"

LOL!

"My time is up"--four words that sounded so sweet coming from John Kerry.

And then of course he had to drone on and on, engaging in verbal "onanism," so to speak. ;)

How I hate this man.

It really would be a shame if her nomination was not passed unamiously.

LOL Love the death stare. Condi looks a little different today. The camera angle happens to be very flattering to her.

I wish Coleman would take some of his time to demand
Kofi's resignation!
