    "While I can understand why republicans would like to add a black female to the ticket this year, I don't think she would allow herself to be used that way. As a woman, a person of color, and a highly successful person I would hope she has more self respect than that."

      What has she done right? Nothing, and that is the only and best reason that Republicans need to give her a promotion.

        Another war monger and liar on the ticket? Her resume is a copy of Bush & Cheney. So it will be a perfect Bush/Cheney for next 4 years. Don't we have a choice to end this spectacle? At least sane voters do.

          YELLOW CAKE - URANIUM

          Condaliar Rice would make an excellent running mate for McCain. McCain knows nothing about economics (self admittedly) and she lies to the American people on important national security issues.

                Well I hope it is Condi to be VP. She has my vote guaranteed. It'll just be another thing the democrats haven't been able to do while the Republicans promote equality nicely. No democratic prez has ever had a black male as Secretary of State and black female as National Security Adviser. Now to have a black female as Secretary of State & VP. Sensational! I love it. All Clinton ever did was put black people in charge of some obscure cabinet post that I've never heard of. Go Condi Go!

                  What a joke. Someone less intelligent than Bush as our Veep. What experience does she have to even be the Secretary of State? She does nothing except get on the plane, wave to people, get off the plane, wave to people. All we need is more of Bush's village idiots in office.

                    Simply shows that the GOP is down to lying, corrupt, incompetents that arewilling to destroy american democracy to support big business, military imperialism and zionism. Have a look at what a member of the Reagan administration says about Rice and the current state ofthe GOP.

                    What Do We Stand For?

                    Americans traditionally thought of their country as a "city upon a hill," a "light unto the world." Today only the deluded think that. Polls show that the rest of the world regards the U.S. and Israel as the two greatest threats to peace....

                    ... Do we Americans have any honor, any humanity, any integrity, any awareness of the crimes our government is committing in our name? Do we have a moral conscience?

                      Condi is an excellent choice for McCain, a bright asset for America and a possible Presidential candidate in 4 years.

                      He would be wise to bring her in, in my opinion.

                      Sam Nunn would be a good choice for Obama.

                        McCain could pick Mother Theresa and these Libs would even rip her apart. Condi, is a good choice. I just thought(think) she is too smart to take it. Look at the hate come off this one blog.

                          So i guess the reward for shopping while Katrina destroys New Orleans and the government did nothing about it is VP?

                          Besides all her lying, stone walling, rhetoric and "i will follow Bush to the ends of the earth" mentality, what has she accomplished? NOTHING.

                          Condi should off herself for the lies she told.

                            Condi is a partisan tool. She hasnt accomplished anything in the middle east, forget about what she did and didnt do during 9/11 and the start of the iraq war and her shopping during Katrina is priceless.

                            And she doesnt represent most black people. She speaks russian and is conservative. she is whiter than me.

                              Condoleeza Rica has lied to the american public and congress on many occasions. She is a tool for the republicans.

                                Origin, This isn't about black and white. What does whiter than you imply?

                                You say Katrina, I say Waco

                                Katrina, Waco

                                Origin "Condi should off herself???" Now you're not serious on that.

                                      This is not Brown Rice. It's more appropriately Yellow - YELLOW Cake. So soon you forget. It must be hard for you living with that brainwashed indifference and continual denial.

                                          I gotta say you lefties are mean frustrated bunch. I see the Rep try to calmly get there points across and then comes in the name calling Left. It is never smart to personally attack and then try to make a point. It is almost a mob mentality that reaches a fevered pitch. So say it as if you weren't so insecure with it and we will try to understand. Walking into a room yelling and breaking all the toys will always get you noticed, but it will never get you listened to. I will stand back now while you turn blue in the face trying to muster up you keyboard courage to rip me to shreds.

                                            I hope that Condyloma Rice is the Republican VP choice. It will sway the swing voters to the left!
