I figure it'll be until after this year's elections before we hear anything one way or another from the administration on this subject. It's fun to think about though and I can't wait to see the kinds of gyrations the democrats and the media have to go through when they're dealing with this topic and with Dr Rice.

I was in the shower this morning thinking about this very thing. If VP Cheney decides not to run again, I would really hope that Rice is picked. The party needs somebody in line to run for president in 2008. I think it's safe to say that Cheney won't be doing that. Then again, I have been known to be wrong. :)

"I am a realist," she said recently, describing her stance on global conflict. "Power matters. But there can be no absence of moral content in American foreign policy, and furthermore, the American people wouldn't accept such an absence. Europeans giggle at this and say we're naive and so on, but we're not Europeans, we're Americans - and we have different principles."
I want this whole quote on a Tshirt!!! Bush/Rice for me please...Cheney, God Bless You, take a break...I hate state funerals...

That is a nice quote from Rice and I bet she's got a whole slew of 'em for the "intellects" over in the Dim party to chew on. Gore flunked out of college- Rice enrolled at 15 and got her doctorate in her 20s. Gore invented the internet- Rice speaks four languages, figure skates and plays awesome piano (she also has a REAL job). Gore is a self proclaimed environmental champion/expert- Codolezza is acknowledged as being one of the foremost world experts in her field. I would love to see her match wits with Gore and/or Hillary on national television.

Well, guess I've got to get back to praying for Condi to embrace the pro-life position. I've been lax due to poor health lately.
Come on, Condi, you can figure it out. Pro-life, the sanctity of life, is the higher moral position that America should stand for, one that trumps women's rights.

Condoleeza could not attrack the black vote.The black liberals in power scorn every black conservative as it is.Blacks speak of diversity but dont allow it.They speak of equality and then dictate what they think equality should be.That is what is wrong with the Democrat Party there is really no diversity you walk the walk,talk the talk and march in lockstep.But in saying that it is no different in the Republican Party fact is both are ruled along the lines of class.Remember the Democrats are run by the ABA and the Republicans are run by big business.They both get well off of the pain and suffering of the rest of us!There are really no difference in the rich and powerful regardless of race.They all strive to use and divide the rest of us.

Here's an even better one (just imagine her sharing this reason for being pro-2A to a Democrat in a debate-- they'd wet themselves):
It was also clear to another Stanford colleague, Russia expert Michael McFaul, who remembers Rice telling him she opposed gun control and even gun registration because Bull Connor could have used it to disarm her father and others who patrolled Titusville in 1963. "For me as a liberal, pro-gun control person, it really hit me over the head," McFaul says. "I remember thinking, 'Who are we as white liberals to respond?' "

Bush-Rice 2004 bump!

Note the brit's dis of the American "myth" that anyone could become Pres. I have a black neighbor,retired school teacher who calls Justice Thomas stupid. I sure would like to know if she thinks Rice has brains.

I couldn't help myself .. hehe &;-)
To: Prodigal Son
Condoleezza Rice once described her childhood as one where she couldn't sit at the lunch counter at Woolworths, but her parents still told her she could grow up to be president. Racism and segregation ruled her world in the deep south, but inside the Rice home, the great American myth prevailed.
Myth?

If Dubya is truly thinking long term, this needs to happen. If the Wicked Witch of the West Wing doesn't run in '04, you can be sure she will in '08. Rice may be just the antidote.

Condoleeza could not attrack the black vote.The black liberals in power scorn every black conservative as it is.Well, that would be to their detriment. Who would they prefer, someone who is of superior intelligence and ideas or some snake oil huckster like Jesse or Al? I think if the black community in America can work themselves past the cliches that the dems have perpetrated and look at the facts- we will have reached a real turning point in this country.
I think if one can't see Dr Rice as a positive role model... Well, they've got problems.
