Please, let me state first of all I am not Racist or anything anything and God knows we do need more diversity in all aspects of Government

but the more I see Condi and the idea of her as Sec of State an interesting image comes to my mind... A cheerleader in way over her head.

2. "A cheerleader in way over HIS head."
that would be her boss, the insipid chimp.

condi would be on the 'pep' squad... not popular enough to make the cheerleaders...

3. I support ethnic, racial, and gender diversity. I'm female, for God's
sakes... But, I believe in calling it like it is. Condi is DAMNED INCOMPETENT. I also think she got a free ride for her incompetence by the press, Congress, 911 commission, etc. who were afraid to attack her incompetence because of race/gender. I also thing the Bushies* are cynical enough to know that and are exploiting this--all the way back to Clarence Thomas.

4. Not me
I see somebody out of academia who has been put into a position she was never trained for, completely out of her depth, a person given to elegant theories who falls flat on her face whenever she confronts anything practical.

If you've ever worked in any sort of corporation, you've seen her type ad nauseum.

5. She's not an idiot. She's just not a diplomat.
And she's also too much of an ideologue hack.

She could go back to the oil company and the University and do just fine.

6. Sadly that is one of their M.O.s
Republicans put bobble headed yes people in key spots to show their magnanimity. They then squeal with delight as Dems condemn the nominee as inadequate turning it into a race based attack.

7. I get the same image regardless of her race.
Just commented to a co-worker that she must have a hole in the back of her head somewhere that Rove & Chimp stuff with all of their daily talking points, and when she opens her mouth it all just oozes out!

Spin! Spin! Spin!

Rah! Rah! Rah!
