Rice makes surprise visit to Baghdad
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, making an election-season visit to Iraq, said today she will tell leaders there that they have limited time to settle political differences and stop a wave of sectarian and insurgent violence.

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, making an election-season visit to Iraq, said today she will tell leaders there that they have limited time to settle political differences and stop a wave of sectarian and insurgent violence. (LOL OR ELSE WHAT? E)

"They don't have time for endless debate of these issues," Rice said during a news conference aboard her plane. "They have really got to move forward. That is one of the messages that I'll take."

1. Oh please Mushroom cloud clown, go bother someone who cares.
Iraq is way to busy trying to get electricity and running water. No one wants a visit from a know nothing.

2. Worst. Secretary of State. Ever
Yeah, you guys gotta settle this or we'll look badder.

Who could have imagined sectarian violence in a middle east country?

7. Ever notice how, when things go in the dumpster, they fly to Baghdad?
Condi, Rummy, even Bush. When the domestic news is bad they fly into the Green Zone, get their pictures taken with the troops, and do a photo-op with the current Iraqi government lackey.

11. More sneaking
These people are natural born sneaks, every damn thing they do is sneaky. They have to sneak around the world, they have to sneak legislation through in the dead of night, they have to sneak dead and wounded soldiers back in the cold dark night. They sneak in signing statements on laws, they sneak around lusting after pages and homosexual prostitutes, i'm fucking tired of these morally upright sneaks.
