When Condoleezza Rice's term in office ends, she is looking forward to "getting back to shopping", she says.

The US secretary of state told girls at a school in Perth, Australia, that she used to "hit the stores" with her mother on Sunday mornings after church.

"It's a great pastime, shopping. I love it, even if I don't buy anything. I just love going to the stores to look."

...

"I love to shop... but now I don't have much time," Ms Rice, 53, told some 400 students in green blazers gathered in the gym of Mercedes College - including Mr Smith's daughter, a pupil at the private school.

1. I'm sure she looks forward to shopping for expensive footwear without the interuption

of national crisis like 9/11 or Katrina.

4. Katrina didnt interfere with Condi's shopping.

Condeleeza Rice is nothing if not focused.
Italian pumps are important.

2. Blood-Soaked War Criminal Rice oughta be shopping for prison stripes.

"Does this orange color make my butt look too big?"

9. I think she should get those prison stripes free, without the burden of shopping

For everything she had done for this country, I think some clothes given gratis is the least we can do.

3. Yeah, once again she's lying.

This line:
"that she used to "hit the stores" with her mother on Sunday mornings after church."
In those days nothing was open on Sundays.

14. Who said she was BUYING

She was probably ram-raiding. She's the type. A Republican. Crooks through and through. "What's in it for me" is their party motto.

6. Poor Condi. All that Secretary of State stuff getting in the way of her shopping.

Why not just resign now? It's not like she's accomplished anything.

7. I tend to think any public appearances would be a big mistake.

People aren't going to forget what damage this evil and corrupt BushCo Regime has done to the whole world and they won't forget who were the main
perpetrators. CONdi will need a full time squad of Blackwater thugs to surround her whenever she goes out in public any time in order to protect her.

8. I can't wait 'til she's doing nothing more disastrous than shopping too!

10. spreading American values around the world

11. What kind of shoes go with an orange jumpsuit? n/t

12. Cement?

13. Do they have boutiques at The Hague?

[HCE SuiGeneris]

15. Cast iron, or stainless steel? Wonder which one she would prefer...

[Lars39]

16. I want her in a cell where she has zero choices for clothes and shoes

for the rest of her life.
