Anyone else annoyed with Newsmax Condi 2008 ad in NY Times email?
Just got my daily NY Times email, and it had none other than a "Condi 2008, Vote Now! Click Here" ad from NewsMax.com right there glaring at me. Does anyone else find it rather annoying that a substandard wingnut propaganda site is allowed to place these sort of ads in a NY Times email?

2. Sibel Edmonds
I don't have full knowledge of Sibel. However from a brief search I gather she blew the whistle. We had a similar case here in UK when a girl employed at GCHQ did the same. They were going to procecute her under the Offial Secrets Act but the case was dropped when it became apparent she would use "necessity" as a defence. Necessity = prevention of a greater crime.

It's that ugly old bat who was the subject of your thread who needs locking up.

3. Yes
for one thing, that smile on Condi had to be photoshopped. Or did they use a stunt double to make her look human? Bring back the teacher ad with the neat guy with dreds in a suit, please!

4. Lots of people are pushing for Condi '08--her ego is pretty high right now
esp since her ratings are not taking a hit (as her counterparts--bush and rummy and cheney are).

5. Funny thing about that
is that there is a certain element to the GOP that would never vote either for a woman or an African American. I don't think even Rove could convince them otherwise. Do you see African Americans (who have about a 2% approval rating of Bush) deciding to vote for Condi if she runs?
