Secretary of State Madeleine Albright was mistaken for a maid during last year’s peace negotiations for Kosovo in Rambouillet, France. According to a report in the "New York Daily News," the Secretary of State at first wasn’t recognized by the Albanian delegation when she walked into their room.
“One member of the delegation, who didn’t realize who she was, and probably thinking she was some cleaning lady because it was after midnight, simply said to her, ‘Give us five minutes and please go away,’” recalled Albanian diplomat Dugagjin Gorani in War on Europe, a British TV program. Instead, Albright exploded in rage, swearing at the group, according to the reports.
“Mrs. Albright started using explicit language which the translators never could translate into Albanian,” says Veton Surroi, another member of the delegation.
"Madeleine Albright Mistaken For Cleaning Lady."
An insult to all honorable cleaning ladies everywhere!
Come to think of it, I could see how it could happen - she does look dowdy and frumpy......
She was there to collect and empty the bed pans.
Very interesting that this humiliating story about halfbright should be fed to the wire services the same week jamie ammanpour quits to spend time with his family. What is going on at State?
Cleaning ladies put in an honest days work. Madeline thinks she's a celebrity jetsetter.
BUMP
An insult to all honest, hard-working cleaning ladies throughout the worl!
"halfbright"
THATS FUNNY!!!!!!!
You must be new here, I can't take credit it for that one. Stick around, it's fun.
Madeleine can clean my toilets anytime.
Man, they must have ugly cleaning ladies in Albania!
Too Funny!
AllButt was wandering around looking for her Albanian boyfriend Thaci. Hey, it's a tough job, but Thaci got NATO to back the KLA. 29-year old Thaci literally threw his body into the mix. Being mistaken for a cleaning lady instead of a lovely playgirl must have been quite a comedown for MADdie.
This New Butt Order (NBO) witch brings fresh meaning to that old saying...
If you're ugly on the inside, you're ugly on the outside!

Maybe it was jamie ammanpour who planted the bug for the Russians in the Madeline's conference room. Then again what's Strobe Talbutt doing these days? Maybe Madeline wore the bug in for the Russians. It was interesting how quick State announced the problem. That was done to kill off the FBI investigation and tip the Russians off that the FBI was aware of the bugging. Now we'll never know who (Jamie?) planted the bug. I bet this story is going to explode soon. One can only hope.
Her and Janet Reno are in a dead heat for ugly!
Was ammanpour pushed out by halfbright? Was this leak to his friends and water-carriers in the press a little payback? Or is the situation in Kosovo so close to disintegrating that both halfbright and ammanpour need to be pushed out to make room for "fresh" new faces? Or was the cleaning lady story released by hillary in order to punish halfbright for failing to deliver a legacy? I think we should be told.
What about Shalala? I think Hillary had a hand (or finger) in the appointment of these women.
She does look like a frumpy cleaning lady. She along with Janet Reno and Bill Richardson need to be fired on the first day of the next Republican presidency.

I have an idea where Hillary sticks her finger...but frankly, I really don't want to know!!

How outragous that the Sec. of State is cussing out a delegation from another country!!!! What kind of diplomacy is this? Is this the best the US can do? What an embarresment!
I am laughing so hard I have to leave the office!
That is so FUNNY! - Great picture, where did you get it? And the quote - was this already posted here? - I was drinking my coffee and spewed it all over my keyboard!
I know this may be a little old news, but I thought for most of you, it might brighten your day a little....

An insult to ALL cleaning ladies everywhere, the Mad beast is an insult to life on earth!

A bit of an overstatement...
By the way, I supported the NATO bombing campaign. Am I an insult to life on earth?
Well, yes, it was posted before. I did the graphic the first time the Albright incident was reported. If you look carefully, the image contains the freerepublic url. I decided after the first of the year that any images that I am doing for the forum will contain the FR url. Hopefully, if the image is "spread around" enough on the internet, people will discover the FR forum. Someday soon, I will post a site where you can access all of the original graphics I have done for FR. Thanks!
You are too good.
I always thought all of those appointments were Hillary's "pound of flesh" for getting Bill the White House, i.e., sticking with him. (Of course, sitting on a stage and not even being recognized as the POTUS last Sunday could be the ULTIMATE payback from Hillary to Bill.)
But have you EVER seen an uglier bunch of women in one group? I was beginning to think they don't know any normal looking people; they were all so, shall we say, "tough" looking.
And the guys -- Lanny, Sidney, Begala, Ickes, et al. -- what a bunch of whimps. Oh, lord...how could I ever forget that little whispy David Kendall!
I admire your willingness to post here against all odds. We debated before about the Kosovo "conflict" (according to our president, who was later sued by members of congress for violating the war powers act.) Even though we disagree on most things, please read the article posted by aristeides. You will find it here, then let me know what you think - A response would be greatly appreciated.
How much you want to bet they knew exactly who she was and, having no respect for her or the President she represents, insulted her pretending they thought she was the cleaning lady.
Thanks for the link - I read it and found it extremely profound and enlightening - Please look above this post for my response to Chris M - whose viewpoints generally run contrary to many here -
I could not open that web page. The system may be down for maintenance.
By the way, I supported the NATO bombing campaign. Am I an insult to life on earth?
No, Chris M., you are just one of many fools who probably lives much better than he deserves and has never learned to respect the life, liberty and happiness of others. While you apparently have similar qualifications, YOU are just common, the Mad beast demonstrates a special kind of ignorance and evil.
Thanks, M. Peach, I never admired ignorance, and I hate it when it destroys innocent lives.
Sorry for the bad link. Here is a good one: try this.
I checked it and it's good.
Are you referring to the article by Nicholas von Hoffman? If so, I will read the article during my next break.
I just wanted to let you know I had to excuse myself from the office to compose myself but I am fine now.
P.S. - The Hague has even filed war crimes against Clinton, Blair, Albright et.al.

Having earned a Ph.D. in political science, I can not claim ignorance. Thus, I must be truly evil, wouldn't you agree?
Good! Then it had its' desired effect!
It would take a strong cleaning lady and about a gallon of Drano to purge Albright's filthy mouth!
P.S. - The Hague has even filed war crimes against Clinton, Blair, Albright et.al.
Small correction -- A human rights group is attempting to file charges against Clinton, Blair, and Albright.
Or was the cleaning lady story released by hillary in order to punish halfbright for failing to deliver a legacy?
Last I noticed, Halfbright was still wearing her "Hillary pin". Maybe she'll be replaced at State with McCain's wife, who has a "Hillary pin", too. If the pin comes off, halfbright is historybright.

Every time she cusses - Hillary gives the order and we bomb!

My brother, the liberal, has his degree in political science and history, and he's been destroying Junior High minds ever since he began teaching. I trust you have been using yours for productive purposes.
I was wondering - where's the science in Political Science. I can see the use of statistics. I can see where you study economic trends. Is the science the art of how to rig statistics and distort polls? Or is that just what they teach at Liberal Arts schools.
I wonder if she has some super scrubber to get rid of those pesky DNA stains in the White House sink?????

Political scientists engage in quantitative research in order to answer all types of questions, such as explaining the frequency and intensity of interstate and intrastate conflicts. I personally am interested in explaining popular support for communist-successor parties in Eastern and Central Europe.
Did you have a chance to read the von Hoffman article yet, and what was your take on it?

I printed out the article to carefully read tonight. I have too much work (old story) to do before the end of the business day.
Excuse me for butting in, Sir Chancelot. You know something? You have the most interesting way of looking at things. I like your way. It is most refreshing to me. No one ever accused you of being "Pollyanna."
I forgot who it was (Dennis Miller or even Imus) , but they had a great line about Madeleine Albright looks like she should be cleaning rooms at the Red Roof Inn. Now that was a funny line, it also turned out to be a prophetic line.
You make a very important observation which reveals the hypocracy of the liberal elite. Yes this is an insult to all hard working laborers everwhere. The liberal elites think themselves superior and are insulted to be mistaken for commoners. These people sicken me, living in their million dollar mantions, sending their defective genes to the best private schools and dictating to commoners how they should live collective lives while they themselves live in privilage and luxury.
Seriously, I read that it was Hillary's policy to hire most unattractive women to work close to Bill - I do not somehow think she trusted him that much...
You've told us before that you have students. So I take it you are a professor of political science who does his research on the political support for neo-Communist parties in Central and Eastern Europe. You wouldn't by any chance be dependent on government (and CIA) contracts for your work, would you? And you wouldn't by any chance publish your work with a CIA-associated publishing house like Praeger, would you?
Asute deduction by you about our "mad bomber/supporting the madness " poli-sci teacher/professor. Good questions...I await the answers!!

No, I do not rely on any government contracts. I use the Euro-Barometer for my data and a lot of weekends for my research and writing. I am employed at a teaching institution that allows very little time for research. No book contract from Praeger Press, although I am co-authoring a book on counterproliferation that Mellen Press will release this summer.
I would want to count the rolls of toilet paper and towels before and after anyone that close to Klynton cleaned my toilet.
Was ammanpour pushed out by halfbright?And while we are speaking of purges, whatever happened to Ambassador Gelbard? We haven't heard a peep from him ever since Jamie had to contradict Gelbard's statements that the KLA was for sure a terrorist organization. Bet Mr. G is sorting paperclips in the Latvian embassy or something equally as glamorous.

Thanks, it's something I always wondered about, and all I ever got, was "You're making fun of my profession." Good luck on your research.
