This is nothing more than very thinly veiled liberal racism. In the mind of Ms Hunter, the only way that you can be a "real" black person is to be a liberal.
Great link! Thanks!
Condi on being a Republican:
---
It is fitting that I stand before you to talk about Governor Bush's commitment to America's principled leadership in the world, because that is the legacy and tradition of our Party because our Party's principles made me a Republican.
The first Republican I knew was my father and he is still the Republican I most admire. He joined our party because the Democrats in Jim Crow Alabama of 1952 would not register him to vote. The Republicans did. My father has never forgotten that day, and neither have I.
I joined for different reasons. I found a party that sees me as an individual, not as part of a group. I found a party that puts family first. I found a party that has love of liberty at its core. And I found a party that believes that peace begins with strength.

Sorry, that's impossible. No program "we bleeding heart liberals could embrace" could possibly be solid.
"The Bushes got their hands on Rice when she was young and impressionable."
That jumped out at me too. That's when the Dems want them and as you pointed out, had her too. She opened her eyes, at least to some degree and changed parties.
I just wish that she were a conservative.
Well said and spot on!
Let me see that again - I LOVE it!
Dems; Um excuse me....... we don't seem to have any competent contenders for president...... could we have one of yours?
Yep, the libs have it backwards...this was one of their signs at a protest in Fort Collins several months ago...
Be Seeing You,
Chris

Kuala Lumpur, July 26 : The best-kept secret in global diplomacy is out US secretary of state Condoleezza Rice will perform a piano recital at the annual gala of Asias top security meeting, diplomats and reports said.
The Asean Regional Forum this year has a heavy agenda with conflict raging in the West Asia, a missile crisis on the Korean peninsula, and fury over Burmas refusal to embrace democratic reforms. But foreign ministers from the 26-nation grouping will have some light relief at the traditional gala dinner during which the worlds top diplomats put aside protocol and perform hilarious skits and musical routines. US secretaries have been particularly keen to poke fun at themselves, with Colin Powell belting out "YMCA" two years ago and Madeleine Albright donning bowler hat and tuxedo in a show-biz turn.
Ms Rice however a trained pianist with a famously serious demeanour is expected to perform a work from one of her favourite composers, who include Brahms and Shostakovich, the New Straits Times said.
Hmmm...come to think of it, Fred, that Utopia would exist if there were NO Liberals!!!!
