Condi Rice's stupid remarks on Meet the Press this past sunday
At one point during Russert's interview with Rice he showed a poll recently taken that gave Bush a 2% approval rating and 86% disapproval rating among blacks. I don't remember the exact questions that the poll addressed, but Rice tried to minimize the results saying she really hadn't had time to study the results and further she doesn't pay attention to polls. She went on to cite the wonderful minority appointments that Bush has made in his cabinet.

How can this woman say such stupid things? 2% vs. 86%????? Maybe she thinks it's actually a whopping 3 or 4% approval. Is she out of touch or what?

1. Apparently, Condi doesn't care about black people either.
Well, she does care about herself, money and power, but that's all.

2. denial denial denial
The crucial thing about republican talking heads is that they know they're not convincing anyone but their own mindless base.

Remember, conservatives are by definition these days people who have authoritarian personality disorder, and BushCo's psy-ops makes liberal use of this fact.

If an authority figure states that black is white, then by gollee, there has never been a blacker shade of white.

4. She doesn't care. She is owned by the Imperial Family and
the Family's interests are all that matter to her. She is George Bush's von Ribbentrop; she doesn't care how many people are murdered, how many lives are ruined, how badly this country is damaged, or haw many poor blacks, whites, or browns are ground under heel - just as long as her master is served...

5. The 2% of Blacks that support Bush include her, Thomas, and Powell
When are people going to realize that Condi reached her highest level of incompetence when she became the Provost at Stanford, the "Peter Principle."

6. What would Condi know about Black people?
I don't think she even realizes she is Black herself.

10. Not a good sign...
How casually she flaunts her lack of awareness of the real mood of the public. Complete bloodlessness, typical of this miserable administration.

13. These guys can't even lie as well as they used to.


SEC'Y RICE: Well, Tim, I don't know what to make of the polls, and I'm not myself one who tends to put much faith in polls...

SEC'Y RICE: "Tim, I'm a social scientist and until I see a poll and how its questions are asked and what the assumptions are, I'm not going to comment on a poll of that kind..."

So, which is it, Sleezie? Do you tend not to put much faith in polls, or do you study them in depth?

What the hell is a "social scientist" anyway? Anybody???
