2008 It’s 10 O’clock. Do President Bush and John McCain Know Where Condoleezza Rice Is?

I’ve been writing about the Sonics trial, so I missed this story about Condoleezza Rice and Hezbollah.
Given the Bush/McCain vs. Obama debate over “appeasing” our enemies, I’m sorta surprised the second paragraph of this pg. 856,000 NYT story wasn’t a pg. 1 headline:
“Rice met with government leaders from both the government majority and the Hezbollah-led opposition, signaling her support for a compromise…”
That’s right, Bush’s own Secretary of State is doing what the “naive” and “dangerous” Obama said he’d do: She’s talking to “the terrorists.” (The U.S. considers Hezbollah a terrorist group.)
Conclusion? Even President Bush’s own secretary of state thinks Bush is out of office already.
Flip.
Flop.
It's what the Bush/McCain 08 wrecking krewe do.
Must be because they're black.
Josh,
That doesn't surprise me at all. According to the book "The Israel Lobby and US Foreign Policy" by John J. Mearsheimer & Stephen M. Walt, the US has flirted with Syria and even Iran (via the US Affairs Section of the Swiss Embassy) over the past decade or so. Diplomacy isn't pretty. Party lines become murky as Obama is finding out. Hey, give her credit. At least we're not going to war with Hezbollah. As I recall, even Israel speaks with them (through intermediaries).
A Google Blog search gives only 10 hits for "condoleezza rice lebanon" in the past 12 hours. Apparently conservative bloggers aren't concerned. It's not appeasement when Republicans do it.
Weird. My searching led me to a blog called Josh vs. al Qaeda, and a post with this line:
A quantum entanglement of Joshes!
Oh good, can we hang Bush now? I'm guessing we can get through that treason trial at UMass Andover in a day and move right to the sentencing phase.
She's getting a pass because she's a WOMAN! No wait, she doesn't count because she's a WOMAN! And BLACK! And a LESBIAN! She's a tool of the white patriarchy! Hang on, maybe she's showing her superiority to the white patriarchy... OK, exhausted now, going to lie down...
She's meeting all these guys so she can add them to her wall of photos. "See? I met him...and him...and him...and him... And they all smiled at me!"
condie is an impressive smart beyotch - too bad she's a GOP and been sooo flippin' devoted to the damned Bush clan. I have no clue she will but man, dude IF she'd defect to the DEM side it would be such a help to have her brains on my side.
i don't think she's gay - she dates a good looking hunk of man who was an ex NFL player. that man needs to be no ones beard.
