Condoleezza Rice fires back at cheney memoir

[spanone]

now this is fun!!!!

WASHINGTON — Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Wednesday she resented what she viewed as an attack on her integrity by former Vice President Dick Cheney in his just-published memoir.

Speaking in an interview with Reuters, Rice rejected Cheney's contention that she misled President George W. Bush about nuclear diplomacy with North Korea.

"I kept the president fully and completely informed about every in and out of the negotiations with the North Koreans," Rice said in her first public comments on the matter. "You can talk about policy differences without suggesting that your colleague somehow misled the president. You know, I don't appreciate the attack on my integrity that that implies."

Rice, in a telephone interview, also disputed a passage in Cheney's memoir, "In My Time," in which he says the secretary of state "tearfully admitted" that the Bush administration should not have apologized for a claim in Bush's 2003
State of the Union address on Iraq's supposed search for uranium for nuclear arms.

[Sarah Ibarruri]

2. Awwww. Poor Condoleeza. Can't think of a bigger piece of trash than her, but I guess...

even trash can get offended.

3. Her Integrity

that's funny Ms Mushroom Cloud!

[BR_Parkway]

12. My first thought, "how can he attack something that isn't there?"

[Supersedeas]

28. She told Barbara Boxer not to impugn her intergrity...with her own words

If she is offended by her own words, of course, she will be stupified by Cheney.

4. Battle Royale!

And there's the Bell. No holds bar.

5. LOL! Condi's pissed at Dick?

11. Republicans eating their own.

:popcorn:

:evilgrin:

[opihimoimoi]

13. Cheney is such a liar.....Rice should put the idiot in his place

[Blasphemer]

14. Condi's fellow neo-cons take great pleasure in pointing out instances when she cried...

It is impossible to know whether or not all of their recollections are accurate given their propensity to lie. However, if she has any dignity and a conscious, this should give her pause. Most of her male colleagues seemed to have absolutely no respect for her and yet she happily aligned herself with these people. Was Georgie's admiration really worth it?

[Ilsa]

25. Self-delete. Wrong thread.

[Xipe Totec]

15. High Lies

(With apologies to John Gillespie Magee)

Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of truth,
And cast my lies from crimson-lipsticked lips;
Onward I've lied, and weaved a rambling myth
Of grateful crowds ...and claimed a hundred things
You have not swallowed...weaved, demurred and spun
Fading into sullen silence. Hov'ring there,
I've chased the shouting media along, and flung
My eager crap through endless streams of wind.
Up, up, the false, delirious flaming lies
I've topped the biggest ones with easy grace
When neither Rove, nor even Cheney could.
And while with soiled, uplifted heels I've trod
The pure untrespassed sanctity of truth...
...put out my hand, and poked the eye of God.

[HughBeaumont]

16. Luvs the smell of a circular firing squad in the morning!!

This whole sleazy bunch of tics should be rotting in the Hague.

[Dj13Francis]

17. AAAWWWWW...

One of the most evil men on the planet attacked your integrity and she resents it? WELL... As one of the most evil women on the planet, totally lacking in any kind of integrity, you'd think it really wouldn't bother her. F her, F him and F the whole goddamned bunch of those Fers.

[lunatica]

18. Oh goody! My wish is coming true!

Please pass the popcorn!

[undeterred]

19. Nobody is going to Dicks funeral except the guy he shot in the face.

:rofl:

[Politicalboi]

20. LOL!

I believe you're right on that. I guess The Dick should have gone quail hunting with Condi.

[undeterred]

21. The guy had a 13% approval rating when he left office

and now he's working on pissing off all the people who worked with him. There can't be that many people left who can stand him!

[WinkyDink]

22. No honor among War Criminals!

[lindysalsagal]

23. Dick's just jealous that she had a thing for George.

And she's pissed that Laura gets him all to herself, now. :(

[spanone]

24. you'd think the criminals would have gotten their story straight long ago

the dick is not to be trusted for one second....he's in legacy mode

[SoDesuKa]

26. So Glad

All those Bush administration people were so drunk on power that they never considered their legacy. They cooked up the intel and assumed everything would work out well in the end.

Now they know. Here we are, September 2011, and we're still stuck in wars started by the Bush administration. Their lies have caught up to them, and there's more to come. I've often wondered how people like that could live with themselves.

[FLAprogressive]

27. the war criminal circular firing squad....
