"The tsunami was a wonderful opportunity for us", Rice ACTUALLY SAID THAT
And Barbara Boxer DESTROYED HER for being stupid in the opening remarks.

Where does the regime find these "people"?

2. She did and as soon as I heard it, I knew that remark is going to be
played around the world. Boxer later called her on it.

Are you reading the transcript?

4. I'm watching her now. Sickening ! I think she got a brain transplant
because her hair is teased up on the top. She is my second most hated. Cheney, then her, then B**

I think she is just trying to pacify everyone. She won't give a F* after she gets in. Hell, this is the last time they probably will be able to ask her a question again. Might as well get the zingers in now.

She is a confederate LIAR and a STUPID one to boot.......We are in a whole mess of trouble with her doing the thinking for us around the world..... they will see right through her ...

19. I agree. She doesn't seem very bright or knowledgable to me
I agree liar. But, you really have to wonder about someone (their sanity). I mean think about it, would you pursue (probably beg and barter) for a position so important and so overwheming if you knew you weren't knowledgeable enough for it?? why? She and B** have some kind of really f'd up psyche.

9. Just what we need in a Secretary of State.
Someone who can see a wonderful opportunty in a horrible event that kills 250,000 people. I wonder how she would have described it if, say, a million people had died.....

We are so screwed with this bunch of incompetent nincompoops running the nuthouse.

20. Oh well, that's the kick..."Condi" likes football!
A moron from the "Houston Texans" (NFL) said something similar to Rice!

You see, morons are also guilty of plagiarism when they work for "*"

23. It revealed what this administration truly thinks. Remember they only
gave $100,000 in the first 24hrs, pledging about 35 Mil. Only when Rove and others saw a publicity value, they jumped on it. * did not even publicly say anything for days, because he was on "vacation".
Just like everything else they do...

24. What a self centered bitch...
All the re-thugs care about are themselves and how they look in the eyes of the public. They don't give a rat's ass about the victims of the tsunami -- to them, it is simply another photo op. "A wonderful opportunity?" What a cold, heartless thing to say.

They don't give a shit about the people in this country, either.

26. What do you expect from someone who has no heart
or soul, or much for brains for that matter?
