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." >> Stay informed about: Political Conversation: Condi's Slip |

I doubt they are an item. Ms. Rice is very smart, and Mr. Bush is very
stupid.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: 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.

What a revelation! 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. Publish quickly before someone steals your theory.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: Political Conversation: Condi's Slip |

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,,
