Condoleezza Rice in Oklahoma, not hesitating to talk about the issues!
Dittos Rush! ^ | 2-9-10 | James

Posted on 02/09/2010 10:45:46 AM PST by iloveamerica1980

Video: Condoleezza Rice answering questions from the press before a speech to at Oklahoma State University at the William S. Spears School of Business, Tulsa. Thursday, February 4, 2010. She talks about the challenges we face: focusing on essentials, defending the country, global financial and economic crisis, promoting democracy, leading on the basis of values and principles, addressed as an optimistic people. "We lead on the basis of our values (not the U.N.'s)"! I for one, miss her!

The piano playing loser decides to pop up eh?

Get back under your rock Condi, the only difference between you and your predecessor/RINO-asshat Colin Powell is his military service and your gender.

She makes us so proud in every way. Bright, articulate, gracious, knowlegable, diplomatic...you name it.

And her clothes! If I were young, tall, thin, I would give all of my kingdom for her cast offs. She always looks like a million dollars.

This is why she’s pruod:
“I am especially proud because this is a country that’s been through long journey in overcoming wounds, and making race not the factor in our lives.”

She’s certainly NOT happy that a Democrat won, if that’s what your implying!

“criticize Israel.”

Can you give consistant examples of her “supposed” disdain for Israel (not just one or two)!

That pair of RINOs will never get anything 'easy' from this Freeper. They are two of the many reasons that the eight years of GWB turned out as awful as they did.

I have to wonder if we wouldn't have seen a different lady had Dubya been more forceful in confronting his critics. I loved way he came on when he made is “bring it on” statement. But then he withdrew quickly when he started to take heat on being a ‘cowboy’. I think he let his detractors set the stage for how he performed through much of his terms. He is one of those rare persons who knows who he is and what he stands for, and doesn't feel pressured to prove it to anyone. That's good when it comes to sticking to your guns, but at the same time it encourages your enemies to mess with you.

I would expect the President to call the Sec. of State into the office and make it abundantly clear what's expected of him or her when it comes to trumpeting the goodness of America around the globe. Rub their noses in it. Those who know us and love us will enjoy the show of bravado. Those on the other side will complain, but it will drive ‘em nuts.

If you got it, flaunt it! America, and Sarah Palin, definitely have it!

Lefty democrat congresscritters gave looney Code Pinkos passes to turn hearings on national security matters into commie/pinko street theatre.

What do you think the reaction would be today if Obama or one of his advisors was threatened like this? She has been put in impossible positions and showed remarkable strength, resolve and even-tempered character. I'm still a Condi fan even though it seems she is attacked more from the right than the left today. JMHO.

Yes, that's exactly what I'm implying. Watch the video on CNN. She could barely contain her satisfaction with the outcome of the election. And you meant "you're" not "your."

Sorry about the grammer error! ;-(
“She could barely contain her satisfaction with the outcome of the election”

This is why she’s happy:
“I am especially proud because this is a country that’s been through long journey in overcoming wounds, and making race not the factor in our lives.”

If I was a black person, I would have been proud of him....and then I would have held him accountable, as even Condi herself is doing! I don’t think there is a contradiction here.

Aren't those links the same as those for the videos on your blog?

Why would you object? Wasn't your purpose to make known the video?

I should think you would be grateful.

Unless.. ... you had another purpose in mind.

Gee gosh and golly, I thought I was just saving folks a useless click.

Rice Quote from your link:

“Rice said, “On a personal note, as an African-American, I am especially proud because this is a country that's been through long journey in overcoming wounds, and making race not the factor in our lives. That work is not done, but yesterday was obviously an extraordinary step forward.”
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Rice spoke from the position of “race”....no one can deny that electing a black person to the highest office in our land was not a landmark...because it was. Any black person would be proud regardless if they were for or against Bo. And though we all know it was the wrong black person the idea is a ceiling had been shattered. For that we were all proud...and that is what Rice is addressing, that our country had come far.

Even so, BO has been terrible as a President and it was a serious mistake voting for a man so far to the left. We all know this...and so does Condi.
