  • All aboard the Condi Mobile!

    You know,it is truly sad to see the field of know nothing republican presidential hopefuls. But to suggest condi for president!!!!! This country surely can not stomach another stupid moron that would only continue pushing this country in the same idiotic and dangerous path that jr. has placed it on. If there is anybody in this universe worse and more stupied dangerous than jr., it has to be rise.

    Listen to the news! President Carter has it right! jr is by far the worst president in the history of this great nation. Heaven forbid a successor who could only surpass that historical standing. Of course, I could be wrong! I do know that Money talks and Bull---- walks. Maybe condi like jr. has the bucks to buy a term ---------or two. We all know that the supreme court might be willing to ,,, well!!!!! you know!

    The United States and the American people deserve better.

    Condi Mobile! I don't think so!!!

    So you're saying we may be eating rice-a-romney in 2008? Gag me with a bar of soap!

  • Throwing Rice at the Condidate

    Rice is a political Stepford Wife, more comfortable as a wonkish political appointee, blindly and obediently serving her "husband" than in doing her job or serving the country's best interests. Her mendacity reveals everything about her, and why she's unfit to seek higher office. And she's brittle -- when she's crossed, she looks like she's going to crack. Her inflexible adherence to neoconservative doctrine would not translate well in a presidential bid.

    She'd do far better as the head librarian at the George W. Bush Presidential Library, assuming there'll actually be any books or papers in there (I imagine the papers will be heavily blotted out for "national security" reasons -- ream after ream blacked out).

    No, she's a pipe dream for wishful thinkers, more appealing in theory than in actual practice -- rather like neoconservative ideology itself, when you think about it.

    I'm more saddened that two-thirds of Republicans think Bush is doing a great job. Who are these people? And why aren't they enlisting in the armed forces to fight the War on Terror?

  • she's qualified!!

    We already know she can lie. Can't have a politician who tells the truth, can we? Rice can tell whoppers with the best of them. Mushroom clouds, anyone?

  • Lessons...

    She'll be fantastic, she has been a consciencious pupil from great teachers : Bush, Cheney, Wolfowitz (?) she has all the making for being a VERY GREAT President. I cant wait....

  • Condi for 2008

    During this 10 interview, I wish we had been able to get permission to speak to the thousands of people at the Fair Tax rally( a non-political event). Without that permission, neither Holt or myself could have stepped up to the podium to do what Mr. Koppelman suggested.

    Some of the comments from the people on the street was overheard by my own ears:

    1)A woman stated that Condi is not a typical politican, she has knowledge and experience we need in a president.

    2)A man said the Republicans need Condi Rice, who merits being on the ticket to offset "Hildebeast" and prevent the Democrats from taking over the White House.

    3)A woman expressed "Thank goodness you guys are doing this. More power to your group and I hope you make it happen."

    Also, if we had taken our seats during the debate, we could not be talking to Mr. Koppelman about our thoughts during the debate. And with Condi being seen a major contender for 2008, she shows the inclusiveness and diversity of the GOP. We are a party of ideas and making them work for all people, not quotas.

  • Up on de porch wif Massa

    So Larry Sabato, usually given to more thoughtful statements, thinks Condi is perceived as “…highly articulate, she seems more intelligent than the president."

    Granted, those familiar with farm animals are aware that they also seem more intelligent than the president. But Ms. “Mushroom cloud” has this going for her, of course.

    Her supporters have had such a cross to bear: "We have had to remove our contact form due to the constant abuse and threats that we were receiving daily from the peaceful and tolerant Democrats, Liberals, Communists, Socialists, Muslims and the other followers of Hillary Clinton and Islam."

    "Oh, yes. And the space aliens. Let us not forget the space aliens." “Constant abuse and threats.”

    Condi, who made her rep based on her supposed knowledge of the Soviet Union/Russia and her connections with the Hoover Institution, is as responsible as anyone for getting us into this damned war. She regularly demonstrated she was clueless when it came to the Middle East. Moreover, there is no reason to believe anyone at Hoover had any useful understanding of what was happening in the Soviet Union and she and her colleagues helped precipitate the mess in which that country is now mired.

    She’ll go back to Chevron, Charles Schwab and J.P. Morgan. She’ll go back to adding to the ranks of race traitors such as Thomas Sowell and Shelby Steele at Hoover.

    And meanwhile, her loyal supporters will be contesting the authenticity, the “street creds” of Barack Obama.

  • Bring her on!

    Rice lied before the 9/11 commission and has lied before Congress. She's hitched herself to not only the wrong wagon but a certifiable train wreck of an administration. She's probably had or wish she were having an affair with Bush (her "husband"). She's speaks poorly in public. I think she's perfect for the Rethugs!

  • Draft Angela

    You want an African American woman president?

    Elect one who is actually able to use the education she struggled for:

    Angela Davis.

    Yeah... I'm serious.

    I'd vote for her in a heartbeat. Then she could pardon Leonard Peltier and make him AG.

    Yeah... I'm serious
