I read this article a week ago...her dream job...Baseball Commissioner.
Guess she'll have to settle for Secretary of State.

Its 240 am and I just LOL at your post... thanks
Not only Russian, but she learned Latin and French as a child. French is worthless and evil, but Latin is cool. In many ways she was "homeschooled", insofar as her mother insisted on these extra homework assignments for Condi--like learning foreign languages outside of school. The Rices' are prime models for American parenting, the way all children should be raised. Expect success from your children, give them challenges, and more often than not they will meet the challenge. Condi Rice is evidence of that.
God bless the Rice family...
I imagine Ted Rall doesn't think much of her either.
You want lefty plantation poison of the crudest kind? You should check out www.blackcommentator.com and go through their archive. It'll really wake up the flavor, honey.
I admire Dr. Rice more than any other woman in public life. She is incredible. It is hard to imagine how all that intelligence, wisdom and courage can exist in one human being. She is truly gifted and her morality is a testiment to what she knows about nations, freedom and the human condition. Anyone with a daughter should be inspired by the example she sets.
You are so right. If she were a democrat she'd be a press darling, but since she doesn't hew to the liberal line she is "controversial." Such bullshit.
Hope she runs for senator in 2006 against Hillary. It would prove she has the right stuff.
Your good fortune.
Wish we had one (anyone!) like that here in the UK.
No thanks. I am not enough of a masochist for that. I won't even lurk at DU.
Condi Rice, interesting background...amazing woman. Small world...Madeline Aldumb's tenure as Sec. of State was abysmal and Condi's will be spectacular.
I second this motion! Condi is my idea of a politician of the female persuasion. Bush knows how to pick 'em. And they continue to spit out he is a stupid moron. Probably one of the best decisions made by a President since our country was founded. ESAD RATS! The Dims have no one who can come close to filling Condi's shoes.
W will be baseball commisioner after he leaves office.
Well, I guess Condi will have to put one of her lifelong career goals... to be Commisioner of the National Football League... on hold for a little while longer.
Her country needs her.
The reason I like Condi is that she is not apologetic about her views and will strongly articulate the same.
Some of these other phony milk toast country club types are simply embarassing and do not garnish my respect.
I really would love to see Condi go to the UN and lay the smack down over there.
"When the Bush Administration came to power..."
Typical BBC perception of Republicans. US Presidents are elected; Soviet and Islamofascist dictators come to power.
It is so sad...the Republicans can't manage to muster anyone of color who can compare favorably with the brightest stars in the DemocRAT firmament, like Maxine Waters or Shiela Jacksons Lee!
