Condoleezza Rice left men powerless in her wake

Condimania

The Dean of Blackburn is a holy man and, as such, is not generally touched by earthly desires. He has serious misgivings about the Iraq war. He is a sensible, mild-mannered sort of fellow, not given to unnecessary exaggeration. But that was yesterday. That was BC. Before Condoleezza.

"Oh, I thought she was charming," says the Very Rev Christopher Armstrong, reflecting on his hour-long meeting with the US Secretary of State in Blackburn Cathedral. He pauses. A playful half-smile curls his lips. His eyes glaze over slightly and gaze into the middle distance. It is as if he is recalling a particularly pleasing experience, such as winning the egg-and-spoon race at his primary school.

"She looks nice, she's interesting, she's very aware, very concerned, and she can handle the protesters so well. She knows other people's opinions are important and she values them."

=snip=

It was, in the end, simply another example of Condoleezza Rice defying the odds. No wonder all the world is smitten.

1. This is an artist's rendition

misty word pictures.

Hahahahahaha

180

[MADem]

2. Well, the TELEGRAPH....after all....

Had it been the GUARDIAN, I would feel as though we were all through the looking glass!

[susu369]

7. Good point

How long will the madness go on......

[dailykoff]

3. That was the dumb-as-dirt storyline.

Too bad the story turned out differently.

[wordpix2]

4. only trouble is, she led us into fraudulent war, ignored the pre-war intel

lied about 9-11/Saddam connection and WMDs & is responsible for 10's of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands of deaths on all sides, US & Iraqi, for no good reason.

Besides that, she's just wonderful. :puke:

8. After watching Oedipus Josh sucking Rex George's

a$$ on cspin (Brian Lamb's interview) this morning, I can believe almost anything. Money and blind adoration are such amazing things!

[IndyOp]

5. There was a peaceful atmosphere about Hitler, too - soft Austrian accent,

a fatherly man -- according to Traudl Jung, Hitler's Secretary (and subject of the awesome documentary "Blindspot").

I am *NOT* saying Condi is Hitler -- I am saying that the human tendency to expect evil actions only from people lacking in charm and politeness is INSANE. All of the people in the world who have accomplished immense evil had to have been able to charm people around them to follow!

Talk about a Blindspot -- :grr:

[Radical Activist]

6. Sounds like she gave him a BJ

Wierd story.

[donsu]

9. perhaps the Dean of Blackburn was thinking with his other head

men have that problem

[spanone]

10. The snake in the Garden of Evil was charming also.

According to lore.

[EST]

11. Yeh, I hear he was very p.c. with an apple, too.

Exploiting a window to the soul, no doubt. (Blecch! I am sooo punny, today!)

[tabasco]

12. OMG - this is a Murdoch rag, right?

They have gone a bit overboard with the propaganda here.

Claiming the world is smitten with Condiliar Rice is beyond belief even for the kool-aid chuggers.

[Richard Steele]

13. What 12yo fanboy wrote that DRIVEL?

Whoever wrote that gushing, juvenile garbage
needs to be SLAPPED.

Often.

By someone who knows how.

[FightingIrish]

14. Smitten by a Klingon

[raysr]

15. She looks nice?

fuawk!

[flordehinojos]

16. "...The Dean of Blackburn is a holy man ..." (????????) perhaps he is just

another man, holy or not, selling his soul to the devil!

[mr blur]

17. This the Telegraph - doesn't count

in any rational discourse. Though when they find out that Churchill is dead and Thatcher has gone mad,,they're going to be REALLY pissed off.

[shadowknows69]

18. impotent with revulsion?
