Condoleezza Rice's anti-Russian stance based on sexual problems
A Russian assessment
Just proving that Condi might not be the person for this job


Condoleezza Rice's anti-Russian stance based on sexual problems
http://english.pravda.ru/russia/politics/11-01-2006/9488-condoleezza-0

Condoleezza Rice, the US Secretary of State, openly criticized the Russian government in connection with the gas conflict with Ukraine. Ms. Rice used quite a trivial technique of psychological pressure, which is mostly practiced in the field of education.

snip...
Condoleezza Rice released a coarse anti-Russian statement. This is because she is a single woman who has no children. She loses her reason because of her late single status. Nature takes it all.

”Such women are very rough. They are all workaholics, public workaholics. They can be happy only when they are talked and written about everywhere: “Oh, Condoleezza, what a remarkable woman, what a charming Afro-American lady! How well she can play the piano and speak Russian! What a courageous, tough and strong female she is!
snip...
”Complex-prone women are especially dangerous. They are like malicious mothers-in-law, women that evoke hatred and irritation with everyone. Everybody tries to part with such women as soon as possible. A mother-in-law is better than a single and childless political persona, though.

”This is really scary. Ms. Rice's personal complexes affect the entire field of international politics. This is an irritating factor for everyone, especially for the East and the Islamic world. When they look at her, they go mad
More...
The Russians have psychoanalysed her
:rofl:

6. She was said to be a good Kremlinologist.
My usual reply was there are no good Kremlinologists.

I don't really see anyone having proven me wrong since based on Rice's performances.

3. Condoleezza Rice visits Beirut to make the war between Israel and Lebanon
http://english.pravda.ru/world/asia/24-07-2006/83499-condoleezza_rice-0

The US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice arrived in Israel on an official visit today. Before setting off, Ms. Rice made a speech with words of support for Israel, placing responsibility for the bloodshed on Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah. Reinforcing Israel’s right to self-defense, the US Secretary of State appealed to avoid causing victims amongst Lebanon’s civilian population. However, Israel’s ground defense army (ZAHAL) is to be extended. The fact that this weekend Israel carried out a large-scale mobilization of reserve army forces is evidence of this.

Here's a random quote:

".. for we know her grasp of international affairs is almost as weak as her boss's."

NOT for her sex and her choice to remain single and childless.

She should just tour the middle east so she can see what her puke friend has created and how he is destroying this planet.We sure as hell dont need her here.
All she is good for is buying expensive clothes and shoes and showing off for w who she thinks is so f----ing wonderful.They should ride off in the sunset together, never to return to this country and take uncle dick with them to get their food.He is such a heman hunter!!!

”Condoleezza Rice needs a company of soldiers. She needs to be taken to barracks where she would be satisfied. On the other hand, she can hardly be satisfied because of her age.

When a woman is "taken" to the barracks to be fucked by soldiers, I don't need to discuss semantics in order for me to be revolted by the idea.

Obviously that's not an issue with you.

40. Why do you keep saying I think rape is funny?
Rape's definitely NOT funny and neither are your accusations.

A woman can be "taken", as you call it, to dinner. If she doesn't know where the barracks is, she'd have to be shown, wouldn't she? Do you know where there's a Russian barracks? I certainly don't.

I think Rice is as bad as any of Bush's administration but advocating gang rape? That's horrifying. What is this misogynistic garbage that all any woman needs is to be taken behind the barn and given a good lay (or beating) to straighten her out?

Edited on Tue Jul-25-06 03:44 AM by BuffyTheFundieSlayer
without her consent and screwed. That is rape.

They did not say "she needs to find herself a hot man and get some". That would have been consensual.

They said she needed to be taken into a tent with a gang of soldiers. That is not consensual. The type of people who say that usually say it with a leer and a grab of their crotch.

89. Oh, I see it, that's why rape humour isn't funny to me.
YMMV.

95. This time I mean it ....
no more of that, it's not nice. I'm not caving. You accused me of something I didn't do.

You can keep going until you're blue in the face and your little wings fall of, but it's not gonna happen.

98. You laughed at rape humour, you even reposted it here.
Sorry, but the suggestion that women need to be "taken" and fucked in order to adjust their attitude just isn't funny to most of us.

31. Is it just me or is Russia totally reverting to BushPutinist policies?
Edited on Tue Jul-25-06 03:30 AM by tom_paine
I say "reverting", because BushPutinism (at this early stage of the game in which the Founding Principles of BushPutinism are being laid out: eternal war, endless lies, a patina of democratic facade culminating still in rigged elections and a relatively gentle policy towards disseneters, compared to the Soviets) is merely the newest incarnation of age-old totalitarianism, which has existed long before the term itself was invented.

People might look at these articles and laugh at the way they poke fun of the hateful Busheviks, but I see a more dangerous development. For a short time, it seemed like Pravda was becoming a little closer to being a proper journalistic organization.

Now it just seems like it's old self again. This Pravda article could have been written in 1978 about Cyrus Vance. And why not? Fox "News" has in a sense re-legitimized such Soviet-like behavior.

But the Russians are back, and that is yet another ominous development. Plus, our leadership is so bad, they've been strengthening their position at our expense.

37. Excellent points.
Welcome to the future of journalism in the US if independent media doesn't receive the support it needs to stay alive in a faux news/clear channel/gannett dominated market.

33. I'm sorry I read this
Edited on Tue Jul-25-06 04:15 AM by Solly Mack
The article trips over an occasional conjunction to string together a series of common, and very well known, misogynistic stereotypes.

Object to Rice, I do.....but not because she's a woman.

43. Not just a woman, but an unfulfilled one!
'If she has no man by her side at her age, he will never appear.' :eyes:

I think Rice has big psychological issues, but none of them are because she is sexually unfulfilled.

50. Yep. That's just one of the stereotypes
and the basis for the entire pile of hate...nothing without a man (and children) and just needs a good fuck to straighten her out (in this case, a gang of soldiers)

This is funny stuff.

I mean, it's still here even after several alerts, so it must be acceptable.

62. I guess I need the sexing up of a good man - or several
to recapture a sense of humor. You know how empty us older, childless women get.

I imagine the mods are still asleep. It's still early...or late...there.

Because I'm nothing without a man. Nothing without children. I need a good fuck to cure what ails me but...I can't get a man because I'm too old and too vicious...so I can't get the cure of a good fuck and some children.

The mind wobbles

78. I know. Substituting our jobs for the love of a man we so desperately need
to be "real" women. Just a little behavioral modification through sex and children to achieve our true natures.

I can't do this much longer with a deadpan face. My viciously funny side is about to emerge...no doubt caused by my too old to be useful, childless state.

83. If such articles generated discussion on sexism...
sigh....they seldom do unless a woman post them.

But to see the "don't knock it until you've tried it"???? about the suggestion that all Condi Rice needs is to go into a barracks of soldiers and let them gang(rape) her?

Just slap me across the face, chain me to the kitchen sink, and call me less than human....it amounts to the same.

84. Yep, because we only pretend to not want it. No doesn't really mean no.
We all fantasize about being raped by soldiers.

And it's funny, har de har har.

Because no guys actually believe that, right?

No soldiers ever raped women (or little girls), right?

What a laugh riot.

88. A mod should be around soon and hopefully this will get locked
I'll just nurse a few rape fantasies where soldiers shoot my family and rape me before putting a bullet in my head and burning my dead body.

Or maybe they don't shoot me and burn me...and then I can be a better woman for the rape ...you know, just a good fucking is all any woman needs to be the best woman she can be.

Which to choose? Which to choose?

92. No such thing as rape.
Didn't you know that?

We all want it, we just don't know it.

This is what fucking kills me, rape is not funny because some men actually DO think that.

It's NEVER been funny and it has nothing to do with women being uptight about sex.

Fuck the people who try to say there's something wrong with us because we find it offensive.

94. Yep..and those men dare call it "seduction"
They think - it's because NO really means YES and she just needs a little encouragement. She's just playing hard to get when she pushes me away, she really just wants me to be the man and "take" her.

I may hurl.

97. Rapists can always justify their acts of violence.
That doesn't really surprise me.

What surprises (and nauseates) me are the people who think it's perfectly acceptable to jokingly suggest that it's just what we women need and then respond with faux innocence when we don't laugh it up with them.

100. I honestly don't know how anyone reaches a certain age..
and not know that harming women isn't funny. That rape is nothing to joke about.

It's a case of you don't want to know - because it's not happening to you - then you don't want to know how others are hurt by the actions and the attitudes. Especially if knowing curtails your "fun." If knowing forces you to change your behavior. If knowing exposes you for being a sexist piece of shit.

Hopefully when I come home from work, this thread will be gone.

Gotta go, though, Solly, it was nice running into you even if it was in such a despicable thread.

I think I'll go back to ignoring GD until things calm down.

66. Reflects worse on Russia than on Condi, if you ask me
This so-called analysis is as creepily mysogynistic as it gets. What next? -- "All she needs is a good f**k?"

We ought to be past that, in this country at least. We don't like Condoleeza Rice because of the Bush policies she helps craft and promote -- there is sufficient material there without going into her supposed repressions.

86. Unnecessary sexism re: Condi Rice
Having been associated with the military I can say "taken to barracks" does not mean what you think it means. It's not a dinner invitation. It's not an invitation to consensual sex. It has happened and does happen to women living in military barracks (also to military women living off base).

Thank you for speaking out, and you're absolutely right.

This happened to a woman I served with, and the men involved all tried to say she wanted it.
