You suspect now that they are an item,,,, LOL,,,, what will you ding dongs
think of next??

And now for more information I am sure you will ignore. A new book
just out claims that Chirac told Bush in October, 2002 (when the US
got the unanimous UN vote to warn Saddam to allow full inspections, or
else) that he would back the US if they went to war in Iraq.

3 months later he "changed his mind". Why? They just signed oil
contracts with Saddam. Worth roughly $100 billion over several years.

Now all this has been known for a long time. But what the author of
the book claims is that the contract *specifically* said that the oil
concession to France was contingent on France's support for Saddam in
the UN.

If true, then this is the smoking gun that France sold the Iraqis out
for oil.

Not the US, but France. As many in the world have speculated before.

Guaranteed you don't care. (After all, it doesn't say "Bush is the
anti-Christ" anywhere.) But some do.

A pressing issue of dinner-party etiquette is vexing Washington,
according
to a story now making the D.C. rounds:

How should you react when your guest, in this case national-security
adviser
Condoleezza Rice, makes a poignant faux pas?

At a recent dinner party hosted by New York Times D.C. bureau chief
Philip
Taubman and his wife, Times reporter Felicity Barringer, and attended by
Arthur Sulzberger Jr., Maureen Dowd, Steven Weisman, and Elisabeth
Bumiller,
Rice was reportedly overheard saying, "As I was telling my husb-" and
then
stopping herself abruptly, before saying, "As I was telling President
Bush."

Jaws dropped, but a guest says the slip by the unmarried politician, who
spends weekends with the president and his wife, seemed more
psychologically
telling than incriminating.

Nobody thinks Bush and Rice are actually an item.(yeah, right!)

A National Security Council spokesman laughed and said, "No comment."



I doubt they are an item. Ms. Rice is very smart, and Mr. Bush is very
stupid.
