Is anybody here surprised that Rumsfeld made Condi cry?
I was just thinking about that, and how it was said that he didn't consider her an equal and frequently treated her badly. Rumsfeld always struck me as a total dick. Arrogant and difficult. I think out of all of the Bush people that guy always stood out to me as the biggest asshole in the room. And considering the company he kept that's saying something.

5. No surprise. Then again, I'd like to make her cry too
then I'd like to make him cry. Then I'd like to see them both tried in The Hague.

8. Apparently I could make them cry.
Supposedly, one of my Congress Rep's staff was intimidated and cried after I got done grilling her about specific issues. I didn't grill or at least didn't think I had.

Then in a dispute with a former dog rescue "officer" concerning what she was doing with the finances I rebuked her by stating the state code that proved her wrong. I talked to one of the others that had left and decided to organized another rescue and she told me that she was on the verge of tears.

12. Put it this way: If I worked with Condi every damn day, you damn right I'd make her cry.
Because I have extremely low tolerance for bullshit, especially the kind of unforgivable bullshit that gets thousands of Americans killed and over a million civilians slaughtered.

13. yeah but you miss the fundamental aspect of being a Condi colleague
To even be in the same work environment as her in the first place you would have had to earn your stripes through years of sheer ineptitude and bullshittishness yourself. :)
