Irony is, the food grain arriving would have been far more useful than the person.

1. yeah

Maybe her name caused some confusion and they thought it was food.

2. Thank God, she still got in her piano recital though.

<In keeping with her "serious" mood the secretary of state performed two pieces from the brooding repertoire of Johannes Brahms - a solo Intermezzo number two and Brahms Sonata for violin and piano, opus 108, with a Malaysian guest soloist.

She arrived at the Istana hotel in downtown Kuala Lumpur for the annual gala dinner wearing a glamorous red dress and red jacket made of traditional Malaysian batik material.>

I hope she does something this time.

6. Well, Bush apparently plays gee-tar, and she plays piano...

Are Cheney, Rummy, or Rove any good on the drum...
oh yeah, that's right! They all are friggin' virtuosos on the war drum...
They've got themselves a nice little band once they're out of office, don't they.
Wonder what they'll call themselves?

3. The headline news and the CNN, MSNBC

newspeople seem absolutely breathless when they announce her arrival. What is she going to do? Act like she can do something? Give a recital? Is it the second coming of Christ in disguise? Hell's bells, we have the biggest bunch of incompetents "ruling" this country that I have ever seen and I have been voting since Eisenhower. The media are the traitors in this country by going along with it.

4. It's a miracle and blessing

that every damn channel didn't broadcast her little school girl piano recital, and then subject us to long sound bites from it for the next five weeks.

5. Maybe she played off-key and the

media didn't want to let us know she isn't perfect.
