The life of Condoleezza Rice is the story of incomparable achievements and that of overcoming extreme obstacles. Born in Birmingham, Alabama, during a time of intense racist violence, Rice went on to join Phi Beta Kappa (graduating cum laude) and then to earn her Ph.D. from the Graduate School of International Studies at the University of Denver in 1981. Later, at Stanford University, Dr. Rice was a professor of political science (winning two of the highest teaching honors-Walter J. Gores Award for Excellence in Teaching and the 1993 School of Humanities and Sciences Dean's Award for Distinguished Teaching) and was then tapped for a six year tenure post as Provost of Stanford. Dr. Rice’s additional accomplishments, honors and awards (prior to becoming President Bush’s Assistant for National Security Affairs) are myriad. Suffice it to say, her achievements have been and are extraordinary. Therefore, it is equally extraordinary that this brilliant and accomplished woman is now being vilified and venomously caricatured by the leftist ‘mainstream press’ and liberal/leftist pundits. The NY Times and other mainstream leftist publications are carrying vengeful cartoons that both discount Dr. Rice’s intelligence and exaggerate racial characteristics. This comes from the Party of professed ‘racial tolerance’. In past years as well as presently, it has become all too evident that the Democrat Party is neither tolerant nor kind toward those who have escaped its plantation to seek their personal and individual freedoms of thought and deed. With consistency and regularity, the Democrat Party demonizes Republicans. But, this relatively new denigration of Republican minorities is far worse than any I have seen and virtually screams to them that they are not allowed to have any independent thought that goes against the tenets of the Democrat Party. It also fires a warning shot over their boughs that if they have the audacity to stray from speaking the acceptable Democrat Party-line drivel and babble, they will be unmercifully attacked; in any and all ways possible. Dissention is not allowed and thought control has become a foundational ‘principle’ of the new Democrat Party.
Now that President Bush has nominated Dr. Rice to the position of Secretary of State, the Democrats’ ‘we’re-broadminded-and-charitable’ masks have been dropped. The true repressive and enraged nature of the, now, decidedly leftist Democrat Party is being presented to the public at large. President Bush’s recent decisive win speaks strongly to the fact that the voting public has begun to see the Democrats’ real faces. The Democrats’ behaviors, also, speak loudly that they don’t care what ‘we-the-people’ think. Thus far, they have not only refused to change their practices but, have become even more vindictive.
Dr. Rice’s confirmation hearings are bound to be heated, as the Democrats gear up to throw anything and everything possible (at her) in their further attempt to discredit her. But, throughout her remarkable life, Dr. Rice has fought much greater battles. She is an extraordinary woman with an unparalleled resolve and purpose. So, I guess it’s now time to place our bets on which side will win; the side of angry mob mentality or reason. I’m betting on reason…and Dr. Rice.

Here are the facts of life for today for American Blacks that have voted and supported the Democrat "Traitor/Racist" party this year, 2004, and in past years. You have voted away what little political power you had. You now have no political power whatsoever. Hispanics and Asians have left you chained to the bottom of the economic totem pole, where you will remain until you get rid of the "Slavery" Democrat Party. . You have rendered the NAACP and Black Congressional Caucus totally politically powerless. They are , now, in reality just meeting and social clubs. You have strengthened the chains of economic slavery the Democrat Party has kept you in for the past fifty years. And...you now endure the Democrat white/elistist racial wrath and hatred right out in the open!!! Wake up good folks, the Democrat Party ain't and never has been your friend!!!
These writers these days only write what their fellow journalists are saying. They all follow the heard. ;^)
A moot point? Some of us do need to crack the English grammar and spelling books now and then. Nevertheless, the article made more sense than any liberal drivel any day.
Plural for monkey adds only an s--not apostrophe s unless
monkey is possessive, as in the monkey's cap. One can use monkey's to indicate a kind of contraction, such as, the monkey's not coming to the show, meaning the monkey is not coming to the show. Such confusion can be alleviated if one writes, The monkey isn't coming to the show. It's infuriating I know--the wonderful and confusing English language.
The spirit of Jim Crow is still alive and well in the Democrat Party.
Here's the video of French soldiers shooting civilians in the Ivory coast. It's a 100 meg long download .
BEWARE IMAGES ARE VERY GRAPHIC AND HORRIBLE>

His reference to a mute point was in reply to my ridiculing the writer for using bough instead of bow. Your write about the english language though. Its' confusing!
Ditto.
They talk about hypertension being the silent killer but it's actually "liberalism".
They're dying on the vine of their own failed philosophy and they wont even submit to a checkup to find the cure.
Probably listening to what their parents say I'll bet.
Dear one, I got it. Actually, I think we the citizens of this great, but almost illiterate land is benefitted immensely by writing on the Internet. I only learned lately what ROTFLMAO meant. It was an enlightening moment. Do not mistake me for an arrogant liberal. After all, spelling will never be as important as content.
Agreed.
we the citizens of this great, but almost illiterate land is benefitted
ooops!
Dimmer, I gues you didn't get the memo. "Mute," when used in place of "moot," has become an FR classic, as indicated by NCjim when he put "*G," after it.
And... they're eating their young as well.
So long they have wooed the women voters and the black voters while proclaiming to be the way, the light, the salvation for those groups...
And now that GWB nominates likely the most highly qualified Female (who just happens to be Black as well) on the planet to be SoS they raise hell.
Again, I say that I hope that the gun they have aimed at their feet has a fully-loaded, pre-ban, high-cap mag in it!
Red
bump!
"The Democrats' inspired 11th-hour message to black voters is: Here are your crumbs, your scraps, your measly handouts. Too bad you're so childish, incompetent and dependent, huh? Now run along and cast your vote for the guy with the "D" next to his name and we'll see you in four years, 'K? Buh-bye, now."
Why is it that a an Irish, Polish, Scotish, German, Italian Jewish or whatever ethnic group can be Democratic or Republican but an African who choose to be Republican is an "Aunt Jemima or Uncle Tom". Sounds like "Democratic" Racism to me.
Thanks for the info and I'm proud someone caught my grammatical error. We is powerful if we stick together.
Aw, Dimmer. That was a nice polite reply.
But, as for me correcting your grammar, I am NOT GUILTY. I don't do that.
I just wanted to make sure another Freeper's joke was understood. There's just too much on FR for anyone to keep up. And I appreciate it when someone tells me, politely of course, what the latest FR joke actually is. I guess I just love jokes more than grammar.
