  • GOP Makes 'Top Priority' Of Converting Black Voters

    It was a historic moment for the Grand Old Party: At the 2000 Republican National Convention in Philadelphia, black conservatives took center stage, delivered speeches in prime time, raised their voices in a gospel choir and locked hands with the white men who, by an overwhelming majority, run the party. By the end of the convention, the future national security adviser, Condoleezza Rice, and secretary of state, Colin L. Powell, had emerged as black conservative stars, and a concerted effort by Republicans "to invent new black leaders" -- as former House speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) once put it -- was...

    You won't be seeing any video of Howard Dean's x-rated, epithet-ridden New York fund-raiser because Team Dean made sure to bar the TV cameras. Which suggests they expected trouble. Maybe it was the same foresight that inspired Dean to seal his records as Vermont governor for 10 years because of worries, as he put it in a moment of candor to Vermont public radio, about "future political considerations. We didn't want anything embarrassing appearing in the papers at a critical time in any future endeavor." So there were no TV cameras last Monday night when pro-Dean comics took the stage...

    Dyson: Why did McGruder target Rice in "Boondocks" strips?Washington PostMichele Dyson says her pals and business associates are still talking about last month's "Boondocks" strips involving Condoleezza Rice. Why did Aaron McGruder decide to go after her? asks Dyson. "Was McGruder so unable to think of anything refined or polished to make his point about foreign policy that he just grabbed hold of the sexism grenade, pulled the pin and hoped for some casualties?"

    NAACP Chairman Julian Bond said over the weekend that he agreed with political cartoonist Aaron McGruder's characterization of National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice as "a murderer." Appearing with Bond on the television show "America's Black Forum," McGruder, whose cartoon strip "The Boondocks" has portrayed Rice as a spinster who takes out her personal frustrations by launching carpet-bombing attacks on Iraq, explained his disdain for the highest-ranking woman in U.S. government. "I don't like Condoleezza Rice because she's part of this oil cabal that's now in the White House," McGruder said, as ABF hosts Armstrong Williams and Juan Williams looked on....

    Iraqis Seek More Responsibility for Governance By Jim GaramoneAmerican Forces Press Service WASHINGTON, Nov. 13, 2003 – The governing council wants to take on more responsibility for Iraq, and the Bush administration is more than willing to help them, said Condoleezza Rice, the president's adviser for national security. Rice spoke during a White House press conference today. She said the Iraqi Governing Council has demonstrated it is ready to take on more responsibility. She cited economic programs and currency reforms as two examples of these accomplishments. "Indeed, the ideas that (Coalition Administrator Paul) Bremer brought with him from Washington,...

    DR. RICE: Thank you very much. (Applause.) Well, thank you very much. But I just have to say one thing, Bill, I am not one year from my 50th birthday. I am one year, 16 days, and 15 hours from my 50th birthday. (Laughter.) So I have a little longer than one year. I want to thank my good friend, Judge Webster. When after September 11th, we were trying to figure out some of the issues about how the CIA and the FBI might work better together to make the country more secure, the person that I called first was...

    Rice Condemns Terrorist Attacks, Says Coalition Must Stay the Course By Donna MilesAmerican Forces Press Service WASHINGTON, Oct. 31, 2003 — National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice condemned the recent spate of attacks in Iraq, saying it demonstrates "the depravity" of the terrorists while reinforcing more than ever the need for the international community to stay the course in advancing a free, democratic Iraq. "Why attack people who are trying to deliver goods and services to the Iraqi people?" Rice asked rhetorically at an Oct. 30 briefing at the New York Foreign Press Center. "It's because they have no regard...

    President Bush's national security adviser said on Thursday that the Clinton and other past administrations had ignored evidence of growing terrorist threats and that despite repeated attacks on American interests, "until Sept. 11, the terrorists faced no sustained, systematic and global response" from the United States. "They became emboldened," the adviser, Condoleezza Rice, said of Al Qaeda, "and the result was more terror and more victims." With these comments, in a speech in New York on Thursday evening to the National Legal Center for the Public Interest, Ms. Rice waded into what has become a central theme of the early...

    Bush Labels Aide Rice the 'Unsticker' WASHINGTON - President Bush gave his national security adviser, Condoleezza Rice, a new job description Tuesday: the White House's "unsticker." The White House recently set up, under Rice, a new National Security Council oversight group over Iraq. The move prompted speculation that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld had been sidelined, despite the Pentagon's continuing authority over the U.S. mission in Iraq. It also led to much talk of how Rice, one of Bush's most powerful and trusted advisers, performs her job. Bush was asked what changed with the creation of Rice's new group. He did...

    <p>There was a time in the 1990s when our friends in Asia began to doubt America's commitment to the region. Today, President Bush returns home from his six-nation visit having sent a clear signal: Not only are we in Asia to stay, we are working with our allies and partners across the region to advance alliances, promote open trade and investment, and bolster the forces of democratic change and tolerance in ways that seemed unachievable only a few years ago. And from historic collaboration to halt North Korea's nuclear weapons program, to successful regional cooperation on the war on terror, to the deployment of Australian, South Korean, Thai and Philippine forces in Iraq -- U.S.-Asia partnerships are paying security dividends the world over.</p>

    Rice Warns of 'Made in America' Solution in Iran Friday, June 27, 2003 - ©2003 IranMania.com LONDON, June 27 (AFP) - US National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice has indicated that the United States is ready to act alone against Iran and North Korea if European countries do not cooperate in stopping them from developing nuclear weapons, the Daily Telegraph reported Friday. "If we do not want a 'Made in America' solution, let's find out how to resolve the issues of North Korea and Iran," the paper quoted Rice as saying during a visit to London Thursday.

    <p>October 21, 2003 -- FORMER George magazine editor Richard Blow thinks the Washington Post knows something about Condoleezza Rice. The D.C. broadsheet was the only one of hundreds of papers across the country to spike last week's "The Boondocks" comic strip which had a teenage boy character musing: "Maybe if there was a man in the world who Condoleezza truly loved, she wouldn't be so hell-bent to destroy it." In a tompaine.com column, Blow wonders: "Does the Washington Post think Condoleezza Rice is gay?" Blow adds that the strip "could be interpreted as suggesting that Rice is gay. Particularly since there's already scuttlebutt to this effect in Washington, primarily . . . because Rice is single and comes across as a little frosty."</p>

    WASHINGTON - President Bush (news - web sites)'s national security adviser insisted Sunday that the U.S. fight against terrorism is not a war between Christianity and Islam, despite a top general's comments that seemed to say it is. But Condoleezza Rice (news - web sites) twice avoided a question about whether Bush will condemn statements by Army Lt. Gen. William G. Boykin, the deputy undersecretary of defense for intelligence. "The president has been absolutely clear that this is not a war of religions," Rice told ABC's "This Week." "Islam is a peaceful religion. The president is respectful of those who...

    A top White House aide took issue on Sunday with a senior Pentagon intelligence officer under fire for his comments on Islam, saying no one should characterize the war on terrorism as a religious conflict. Army Lt. Gen. William Boykin, has apologized for the controversial statements in which he portrayed the U.S. battle with Islamic radicals as a clash with "Satan," saying they sought to destroy America "because we're a Christian nation." President Bush's national security adviser, Condoleezza Rice, asked if Bush would condemn the remarks by Boykin, said, "The president's views on this are absolutely clear." "This is not...

    US President George W. Bush flew out of Japan for the Philippines, the second leg of a whirlwind six-nation tour of Asia and Australia, an airport official said. The presidential plane, Air Force One, took off at 9:16 am Saturday (0016 GMT) from Tokyo's Haneda airport, the official said. Bush held talks with Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi Friday, warmly praising Tokyo's contribution of 1.5 billion dollars in aid for the reconstruction of Iraq. The president also raised the nettlesome issue of Japan's foreign exchange policy, and urged Koizumi to let market forces decide the yen's value, according to a...

    A thankless job but I tuned into Oprah this afternoon to see Condi Rice on the Oprah show. Oprah was doing a show on "women who excel in their field". The had the CEO of Ebay, Vera Wang and Condoleezza Rice all in different segments. Oprah was actually very graceous and complimentary. The segment was about her personal life mostly. One question Oprah asked was "behind closed doors does the inner circle at the White House secretly wish they would find weapons of mass destruction?". Condi answered by reporting all that Kay found including the missiles and botulism toxin. Oprah...
