Rice: `History is calling us'
Associated Press
Published January 28, 2005


WASHINGTON -- Declaring that "history is calling us," Condoleezza Rice took over Thursday as the 66th U.S. secretary of state.

Rice told employees at the State Department that "it's great to be here" and declared that "democracy will take hold" around the world as it did in Germany and Japan after World War II.

1. history has been calling us for a while now, dumb@ss, but
apparently nobody's been around to take the call--b/c there are so many examples from history of how Bush's Folly is doomed to failure--where you been anyway? did you get that "doctorate" from OnLine U, or what?

21. History is calling YOU a B-HOLE, Condysleazio Rice a Phony!
It's calling YOU a B-Hole because you DON'T have what it takes to be an A-hole.

BTW thanks for sending my only child to die in Iraq for your fucking power grab. You won't get any more cannon fodder from me!

13. Fuck her, that stupid bitch
I hate these people more than words can express.

Seriously, I can't stand another minute of it. I just read about ten articles. From economic to foreign policy to environment to war news.

Not one fucking good thing to read, everything is wrong. And these people go on with their fucking speeches like their on top of the world.

Lord help me, I hate them all.

19. Great to be there!?!
Where Condi? The only history I see that's calling you is "straight to the gates of hell;" you and you're cohorts!

Laugh and your evil-wealthy little world laughs with you, I suppose, huh! The only thing that "will" take hold is democracy and I await that day... when history calls you "out!"

23. Talking about being delusional is right on the money.
The only way history will remember * is by him being the United State's Napoleon and Iraq his Waterloo. I think he honestly believes historians will look at him as a hero. Now that is really delusional.

27. Chevron named oil tanker the "Condoleezza Rice"
http://aztlan.net/oiltanker.htm
"For Faithful and Loyal Service:
Below is a picture of the oil tanker before Chevron quietly renamed it the "Altair Voyager" and before President George Bush appointed Ms. Rice as National Security Advisor."

"``The fact is Dr. Rice is one of the principal architects, implementers and defenders of a series of administration choices and policies that have not made our country safer in the aftermath of 9/11 and have alienated much of the world,'' Kerry said. "
