Condi "national security advisor" -laff- busy playing politics
1) ALL OF RICE'S VISITS ARE TO SWING STATES
After this week, Rice will have given nine political speeches in two months - ALL in battleground states.

2) RICE DID NOT VISIT SWING STATES PRIOR TO THIS YEAR

In previous years, Condi Rice delivered her "outside-the-beltway" speeches in major metropolitan areas like Chicago and New York or understandable locations like her home state of California or Bush's home state of Texas. Recently, her travels have taken her to Oregon, Washington, North Carolina, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.

3) RICE RARELY LEFT DC BEFORE THIS YEAR

In September and October of 2001, 2002, and 2003, Rice gave two or fewer speeches outside Washington.

4) RICE'S POLITICAL ACTIVITY IS UNPRECEDENTED

In the past, National Security Advisers have not given more than a couple speeches during presidential election season, and none have traveled into the field to make their boss's case as Condi has done.

This gang can't protect Americans from the flu, and while Condi should be protecting us from our enemies, she's actually busy playing politics.

She was too busy playing with bush to protect America on September 11, 2001, too. Stupid cow.

2. The real security risks are in the swing states
It is called job security. That is the only security she is worried about.
It sure is not HOMELAND security.
Bitch

4. Rice's lies are also unprecedented
Has there ever been a more dishonest "national security advisor" in American history? She has spewed nothing but lies since 2002--about WMD, about the presidential daily briefing (the one titled "Bin Laden Determined to Attack in United States" which supposedly did not warn of Bin Laden wanting to attack the United States), etc. etc. Even now she says Hussein would have posed a nuclear threat.

And this from a former provost at one of the nation's elite universities??? How do the folks at Stanford feel knowing that she is an accessory to war crimes?
