Political Conversation: Condi's Slip
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." |

Political Conversation: Condi's Slip
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.

Ms. Rice is very smart, and Mr. Bush is very stupid. |

Are you saying that political decisions are sometimes made over oil or other commodities? You are a genius, and my new hero. You are a god among men.

You really are an idiot, aren't you? When you're an idiot, are you aware of
being one? The French chose not to go to war over oil. We chose to go to war over oil. Same motivation, different method. Do you think we're getting more oil out of Iraq than anyone else?

Ok,, lets look at what you said,,,
"'''You really are an idiot, aren't you? When you're an idiot, are you aware of being one?"'' Trick question,,,,, right?? '"'''The French chose not to go to war over oil."'''"' They didn't go to war, and because of the war, net lives saved has been realized. And should Bush's objective be met, ,,, well you do the math,,,, but what are those estimates of the mass graves up to now? 600,000 ? Torture chambers, they raped your daughter and wife,,, before killing them both right before you. Then you. Someone asked me earlier how you would ask a man to go to war and be the last one to die,,, you answered it..... But your right,,, these guys aint too bad, france didn't see a problem with them, but france has a 1 billion dollar contract with them, you knew that,,,, "'''''We chose to go to war over oil."'''''' Can you show me proof of that? I think your hatred for bush has blinded your world view on a humanitarian level. I find the U.S. taxpayer (the ones who are paying for all this) to be most magnanimous, most generous. Give up already on the war for oil squeel,, its getting ridiculous,, are you still on the elected thing?? florida?? And what did you say to me earlier??? "''''"'''You really are an idiot, aren't you? When you're an idiot, are you aware of being one?"'' Sorry Doug,, your own words better describe yourself after making your last statement,,,, lol,,, you really have to give the head a shake over that one,, not too bright are ya? Anyway,, what else did you say,,,lets look at it,,, "'''Same motivation, different method.'""' No,, Bush's motivation is to liberate Iraq, now they are there as occupiers (according to UN). Bush is going to remove the terrorists from the earth, like a disease. They are killers, their objective is to kill all Americans and Christians. ,,,,, I am not American,,,, I am Christian so I hope Bush succeeds with his plan before they get to me.... If you are an American,, than you really must GTHAS,,, "'""'Do you think we're getting more oil out of Iraq than anyone else?'''""'' Come on,,, give up on the Bush going to war for oil thing or wasn't elected by the people thing and all these things you have,,, and the answer to your question is no, the U.S. is not liberating Iraq and saving lives in Iraq just to take their oil. Come on,,, had Bush not done nothing in Iraq,,, you know Doug that you would be here criticizing him for not doing anything? And letting all those people die? And you have the resources to stop it? You would be screaming humanitarian impeachment. please no more oil nonsense,, "Doug Kanter" wrote in message ... You really are an idiot, aren't you?
