A lesson from Condoleezza Rice

Any fantasies I might have about Dr Rice are the perfectly normal fantasies any normal male MIGHT have for an attractive woman.

You find Rice attractive?

[discostu]

I wouldn't kick her out of bed for eatin' crackers that's for damn sure. The pillow talk would probably get pretty depressing though, I'm betting we have very few of the same interests and she's a hell of a lot smarter than me.

[Tuco-bad]

I'm betting we have very few of the same interests and she's (Rice) a hell of a lot smarter than me.

I tend to agree with your statement.

[discostu]

Ain't no shame in admitting that woman fluent in five languages with a doctorate who's thesis on international relation was described by Kissinger as one of the most brilliant things he's ever read, is smarter than me. You could do to learn some humility yourself, then you'd be able to admit you screwed up instead of wasting days throwing red herrings trying to distract people from your idiotic claims.

Now BACK TO TOPIC:
Since you've admitted that segregation still existed in the post CRA world, why not withdraw your insulting declaration of the story as a "fairy tale" and admit that it certainly could be true and lacking any eye-witness testimony it more than likely is true? Come on, earn your ego, rise above the petty foolishness and admit you screwed up. That's how people earn respect.

Illegal segregation, not legal segregation.

Rice's story implied it was legal, otherwise what is the point of the story of rehashing wrongs that were done to you illegally?

[discostu]

I've already addressed that, there's NOTHING in the story that gives ANY indication of the legality of the drug store's action. Any attempt on your part to re-classify the story is LIEING. The point of the story is overcoming prejudice which doesn't have to be legal to be pervasive and evil.

[WaveThatFlag]

This is great. In the interest of his personal crusade against Condoleezza Rice, Tuco has resorted to tivializing the Civil Rights movment. Even Hillary would not have attempted to sail into the wind in that fashion.

Who would have thought Convervatives would ever be permitted to claim the moral high ground in that argument?
Go Connie!!!

(and were exposed as a liar several times)

[Tuco-bad]

The point of the story is overcoming prejudice which doesn't have to be legal to be pervasive and evil.

I'm sure EVERYONE has experienced some form of prejudice (i.e., racial, religious, ethnicity, gender, age, appearance, etc.).

Stop crying.

[discostu]

Yes they have, and the stories of overcoming it are one of the bright sides of the human experience and deserve to be treated with a modicum of respect not desperate attempts to discredit the teller.

You're the one crying here. Desperately trying to find a way to devalue the story via lies innuendo and mischaracterization.

[Tuco-bad]

Yes, you declared YOURSELF the victor.

Some advice: You'll never be a winner if you don't learn how to "connect the dots".

As I said if it wasn't for the 3000+ people killed on 9/11 - I would be ROTFLMAO.

[Tuco-bad]

You're the one crying here. Desperately trying to find a way to devalue the story via lies innuendo and mischaracterization.

Anyone who constantly bring up bad things that had happened to them to incur favor of their audience I consider cry babies.

You know what that means: YES - Rice is a cry baby!!!!!

[cherry]

"I am a Rice fan and would gladly vote for her for President, but in this age of affirmative action and enforced diversity, "half as good" is much closer to the truth. "

I will go a step farther and say I would want Rice for my dtr or my sister....and I would vote for her anyday of the week...give money to her campaign and work for her campaign....you just do not find quality people like her around that much....

[discostu]

She told a story of her childhood, famous people do that all the time. For famous black people those stories often revolve around racism. It's a story of strength to help inspire people. You're the only cry baby here. Continiuing to try to mischaracterize the story.

[WaveThatFlag]

Here, let me connect the dots for you:
When you try to win debates by lying, repeatedly, and you are exposed, repeatedly, people tend not to hold anything else you say in high regard.

[cherry]

"None of you have any idea what she stands for!"

" I don't expect her views to be mine....for that matter NO ONE has my personal views entirely...not Bush, not Cheney, not Powell, not Farwell, not Rush, not Savage, not Sean.....nobody, nada......

Sometimes, you go with intelligence, achievement,committment, integrity, leadership, and confidence....

if your canidate can start with those quatlities....then we have a chance...

[Tuco-bad]

She told a (crybaby) story of her childhood, famous people do that all the time.

ALL the time?

Roosevelt, JFK, Nixon, Bush the Elder didn't.

[Tuco-bad]

Here, let me connect the dots for you: When you try to win debates by lying, repeatedly, and you are exposed, repeatedly, people tend not to hold anything else you say in high regard.

Is that why you followed me to this thread?

[discostu]

You're the only person that thinks it's a crybaby story, everybody else thinks it's a story of strength courage and inspiration.

Of course you previously thought it was a fairy tale.

Then you thought it was about legalized segregation.

So in truth you don't THINK anything, you're just attacking Dr. Rice out of jealousy and hatred.

[Tuco-bad]

You're the only person that thinks it's a crybaby story, everybody else thinks it's a story of strength courage and inspiration.

EVERYBODY - I assume that's poetic license.

[WaveThatFlag]

Yep. It is important for the readers to know that you are an exposed liar, so that they are not disposed to take anything you say seriously.
