Condoleezza Rice (news - web sites) said Thursday that terrorists today are driven by the same hatred that inspired Klansmen to bomb a church in 1963 in her hometown of Birmingham, Ala.

"Those terrorists failed because of the poverty of their visions — a vision of hate, inequality. ... And they failed because of the courage and sacrifice of all who suffered and struggled for civil rights."

1. Which terrorists who 'failed' is she referring to?

The Sept. 11th. ones were fairly successful; thanks to her.

[trof]

2. NIce try, Condi, but...

I don't remember the blacks invading the homes of the Klansmen.
I don't remember anything the blacks did (besides just being black) that made them deserve such violence.

On the other hand, I think a lot of Muslims have a legitimate gripe.

3. What an idiot.

I think her collegiate background is bogus.

[trof]

4. And another thing...

To somehow try and equate the civil rights movement with the "war on terror" is just...WRONG.

[Oddman]

9. You bet it is!

It's wrong.
Grandstanding on racial issues that this administration has not thought about for even a moment. Wrong!!

5. Sorry Condi! We aren't buying it. Too little, Too late n/t

6. "Those terrorists succeeded on 9/11 because of

a poverty of vision on my part, and pResident Bush's part, and really -- when you think of it -- a staggeringly high level of corruption and incompetence in the entire BushCo Administration."

- Truthfully, Condi

7. We are watching an administration that is desperate. No one deserves it mo

8. Good one, Condi!

That'll win her a lot of points and get African Americans to support the war on terrorism. Because, after all, their ancestors did invade this country and force white plantation owners to use them as slaves and break up their families and change their religion and try to destroy their race and culture and everything. Of course, it's the same hatred. Why didn't I see that before?

10. is she messing around with some of *Bush's base?

the C(K)ouncil of C(K)onservative C(K)itizens might not care for that sort of thing

we're uniters, not dividers

you're either with us, or against us

11. So, Condi...to whom would you compare the NeoCons...

...with whom you share a common political line of thought?

Don't look now, Condi, but your alleged "terrorists" are starting to gain the upper hand in both Afghanistan and Iraq.

12. bushco alienates another key constituency..

they can kiss their coveted racist redneck vote goodbye if they keep comparing them to those swarthy A-rabs.

[Cat Atomic]

13. Those Klansmen didn't fail. They're running the US government.

14. right you are
