Condi and "family values."
Anyone see anything about her family? Personally, I don't care WHO she lives with, loves, etc... but I'm wondering why she's never seen with anyone.... Anyone know anything?

In 1998, George Bush Sr. called Rice and asked her to teach his idiot spawn everything he needed to know about the world.

Undaunted by this Herculean task, Rice agreed to the request, and the clueless Bush Jr. quickly became dependent on her smartitude. Her excellent tutoring paid tremendous dividends in shining moments like Bush's 1999 interview with a Boston TV reporter, in which he was unable to name the president of Pakistan while praising the military coup which created the anonymous fellow's dictatorship.

When Bush walked into the White House with a solid majority of Broward County, Fla., voters, Condoleezza Rice was right by his side, whispering in his ear when he forgot important civics facts, like the name of the Queen of Bavaria or the number of states in the union.

22 Jan 2001 Appointed National Security Advisor by George W Bush.
May 2001 Oil tanker Condoleezza Rice renamed to Altair Voyager. Chevron's Fred Gorell: "We made the change to eliminate unnecessary attention caused by the vessel’s original name." This was likely done at the behest of the Bush Administration, but nobody is saying anything. Multinational Monitor.

'Velvet-glove forcefulness'


Six years of provostial challenges and achievements
BY JAMES ROBINSON

Gathered last week to bid farewell to Provost Condoleezza Rice, about 100 members of Stanford's African American community were listening to Brenda Sepolen give a rapturous rendition of two of Rice's favorite gospels, "I Need Thee Every Hour" and "His Eye Is on the Sparrow."

"Ambiguity has never bothered me at all," the outgoing provost says during a recent interview at her modest office in Building 10. "I think that part of it is that I'm pretty religious, and that probably helps to make one less fearful and more optimistic about what's possible. I rather like living with ambiguity."

"I would expect that Condi's last tour in government will not be her only tour in government," Blacker says. "At some point in time, I expect she's going to be a person of consequence in the American foreign policy establishment. The handwriting's on the wall."

3. Her father was a college professor who protested the Vietnam War.
Somehow, Condi always forgets to mention that part as she proudly proclaims that she's a Republican because her father was always one, too.
