    An endorsement of Obama by a Bushie? I mean c'mon, Dems, Rice is the enemy, she's a race traitor who's been kissing Bush-butt for years. You can't seriously want HER to say anything positive about Obama, do you?

    That's sarcasm, in case it escapes you...

      she also said a lot of other things which are not mentioned in this very flimsy and misleading article.
      a more complete transcript is above

      she also mentioned that TIME IS RUNNING OUT ON IRAN
      which is why she would feel safe if Obama were elected because by then Iran would cease to be a problem......

      White or black, is not the issue. I can't believe this moron made it to presidential candidate. I mean really! People need to wake up an see what this man will do to this country if he is elected. Taxes will rise exponentially! Where do you think the money is going to come from to support socialized medicine? Yeah, great for all the illegals who can't get insurance legally but what about us Americans? Also, he can't even salute our flag or sing our anthem??? Shouldn't the President of the United States have a little loyalty to the country? I know he wants change and the only change I can see is all Americans being forced to wear turbins. Yuck! I'm not racist so no, his color is not an issue with me, his heart is!

      Stop complaining about OBAMA if you don't like him or his proposals. You can save yourselves time and effort in scripting and typing all the negatives about him.

      Just vote McCain and bring back Republicans for another 4 years so the country can prosper!.

      If McCain wins I hope America goes to hell. I am sick and tired of all these mean spirited people who rather have an old senile grey haired republican (McShame) instead of giving hope a chance. These mean people have inherited a large degree of hatred. Personally, I am fed up. No wonder, we are hated around the world. Republicans do any damn thing they desire and get away with it. Rove, Bush and Cheney should be serving time in prison for war crimes. Instead, Bush has his ass over in China trying to give advice on religion and human rights. Only in America!

      My first question is why we all care about who is in support of who? Are we not intelligent individuals capable of making our own decisions? All this energy spent fighting over party affiliation, patriotism and name calling is separating us further as a nation than ever before. How about we all stop this non-productive nonsense and unite to make this country, as great as, we all know it can be.

      I always had a little respect for Condi Rice, but after hearing her opinion on Barack Hussein Obama and the safety of this country, I now have no respect for this puppet at all. Boy, do blacks show their true intentions when another black runs for office, even if he has less experience than Paris Hilton.

      This is an OpEd piece..and misleading. Nowhere in the article posted here does RIce say the United States would be safe under Obama...what she said was.

      "Oh, the United States will be fine," she responded. "I think that we are having an important debate about how we keep the country safe,"

        I think she was very professional on her comment, Deep down, she might actually feel he is going to win. I hope he does. We don't need another 4 years of bushsh*t...do we?. Give the guy a chance, he might surprise you in a good way...or bad. We have never had a PERFECT president, and never will. Our country is so screwed up right now it's nauseating...hmm who could we blame for this? I love this country to death, and if Obama can at least do better than the present administration, so be it. Don't be afraid of change, I mean really, could it get worse than what it is now..lol

        "Don't be afraid of change, I mean really, could it get worse than what it is now..lol"

        My short answer is.. yes..it could get worse.
        My biggest issue with the Obama hype is there is no substance to it...
        Change for the sake of change gets you nowhere. And by all appearances Obama is not changing anything..he has moved closer to the middle and changed (oppppps) I used the word...postitions on too many issues.

          Change doesn't have to be Earth shattering abntv...I see Obama as a Pragmatist. He's interested in solving problems. He's willing to reach across the aisle to get consensus. Just the fact that a Democrat will say publicly that he would consider offshore drilling as part of a larger Energy Bill shows the kind of leader I believe he will be.
          And that is in fact change from how we've seen this current administration behave....

            She said the same thing about BOTH - NOT just Obama. The spin is directed at your inability to reason - or common sense - and that youll think she would say NO it would not be under McCain. Poeple, these folks are using you lack of intelligence and political knowledge - NOT your fault - they dont teach us ! Use common sense, reason out what people say and then hold them accoutable for it. Its caled the SPIN for a reason. The comment wasnt meant to be race based - AS they want you to assume as you can see form some comments above - she didnt single out Obama as the better person - as they want youto think. These people LOVE confrontation, Racism, Terror, Conflict and every other negative in this world. Just think - without it, they're out of work ! IF you call it that !

              You want talk about worse, think back to when Kennedy and Johnson were presidents. Anybody remember the Military Draft and the Vietnam war. It was bad, kids were pulled right out of school handed a gun and sent to fight. I am not saying the the Vietnam war was a complete loss, because I believe it was a major reason the USSR went bankrupt, but the warriors were not all volunteers as it is today. So can it get worse, you bet it can.

              Today is the "good old days".
              PROTO - You cant explain that to these folks. They are all about negative and without it, they have nothing to say. Simply a reflection of their lives. They're not happy and thus, wish unhappiness on others. It doesnt matter who gets into office, they;re lives will stay the same. Maybe another dollar or two here and there through programs designed to support those that refuse to work or those that blame their bad luck on others and the govt. There are NO mirrors in these homes. But yet, you'd think by their comments they are all Harvard Grads !! Two choices - Either run your self for office or move. If you dont like the way you percieve the gift God has given you and theopportunities and freedoms you have here in the US, then move. Stop bitc**&^ and contribute. Stop pounding your President and Pound your Senators and Congressmen ! IF you even know who they are today. Thats YOUR link to govt, NOT the President

                MMRHE - I want you to look at the link here. Obama voted Party Lines 97% of the time. He MISSED 46% of the Votes this years on bills. There are very ffew - Under 10 - other Senators that had a HIGHER avg on Party Votes and one was Hilery. Now, you say he reaches out to solve issues? How do you come to that cnclusion ? The facts/numbers say exactly the opposite. YOu have to look at the facts, NOT hearsay and TV. Very easy to do. NONE PARTISAN GOVT websites with REAL, Factual information. LOOK IT UP FOLKS.

                The highest number of voting party percentage for the Republicnas is 92%.. there are 32 DEMOCRATS AHEAD OF HIM AND 1 INDEPENDENT ! THERE IS ONLY 100 SENATORS ! Look at the math, look at the issues and look at what a Majority of Americans want. Common Sense. If your voting in a 4,5,6,7 term Senator or Congressman - YOUR PART OF THE PROBLEM FOLKS. And you want CHANGE ? DUH ! Change comes from the House and The Senate NOT the White House.
