5. Her husb-
I mean, Bush, won't acknowledge their passionate love affair to the world.

It's hard being a woman scorned.

21. I have seen this charge several times on the web
Has anyone come up with some documentation to support this claim yet? Where did you hear about this claimed love affair between W and Condi?

type in condi rice bush husband

take your pick of sources. This is from just one I found in .02 seconds:

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. A National Security Council spokesman laughed and said, “No comment.”

edit for pic:

31. That was the oddest slip
A woman who's never been married doesn't slip and say "my husband."

23. It was all over the news...
...when Condi made an, er, "interesting" slip of the tongue. Try this link:

24. Yeah I saw that one
That's quite a leap...husband? I would think that a marriage between W and Condi would have been noticed by now. Scratch that wildcard and I'm starting to think it was an intentional slip to stir the pot and bring the overcooked lemons to the surface.

29. No, I'm looking for FACTS
The verbal slippage of the tongue intentional or not is not enough to prosecute. Kiwi, shinola or shit does not matter...I just want some ammo to make this case. Got any?

33. FACTS
You are looking for someone to confirm that they are actually married? Won't happen. If you want ammo to make the case that it was strange to have, as a previous poster noted, a never married woman slip and call someone her husband, then there is plenty out there.

If you want a video of their marriage ceremony, I doubt you'll get it. If you want FACTS, do what others do when attempting to find them. If you ask, and are not satisfied with what you are offered here, look elsewhere.

55. Where did I ask for a marriage certificate?
Please reread my suggestion that a bit more evidence is needed here but nowhere did I even hint at a marriage certificate.

What is this "go away" nonsense? Are you the gate keeper?

34. Yes they are.........hoo, boy!
Condi has looked angry and downbeat for quite a long time. Wouldn't ya just love to be a fly on the wall over there...to just see and hear what's REALLY going on in the White House. That group KNOWS what's up but they can't say. They're own butts are in the sling and they probably realize Bush is a lunatic and can't do anything about it.

Wouldn't want to be in any of their shoes for all the money in the world......... Yikes!

20. Shallow insult
If we set aside the ugliness of a persons political choices in their life then any physical traits a person has should be praised or ignored. These spiteful and ugly insults against a persons looks are really lame and bigoted. I think Condi has nice features and will reserve any insults I have of her to be directed at her political choices only.

Measuring people by their looks reminds me of school bullies and the elite trash.

I'm sorry I said it YA RIGHT I'm so happy when they look like that they will go to hell for what they have done! Maybe thats what they are thinking. Is that the expression you want to show the world as one of our leaders of Democracy? I like to have a kiss when I get screwed how about at least we get a smile?

43. Many many kids in school made fun of my looks
They were the elite, jock, 'A' list trash. It was a terrible time. I'm guessing you never had that problem. To be measured by your looks instead of your heart and mind is sickening.

By the way...what "we" are you referring to? I find it very hard to believe any real liberal or progressive measures anyone by their looks.

I don't like the way she has CHOSEN to wear her hair, though...

42. actually, as a person ages, their personality affects their looks
Condi may have used to have been pretty, but years of scowling have put deep anger lines in her face.

It is her personality that literally makes her ugly.

That, and her heavy resemblance to ET

something they spent two hours coaching him on.

But to be fair - I didn't hear *'s words today - was he talking about some who died? Something sad?

17. Rice looks awful
This is a bunch of losers who were led to believe that if they played parts, they could pull the wool over the eyes of anyone. They were assigned their "parts" and stuck to the script.

Now look at them. They look like losers. And they are.

56. Pretty Is as Pretty Does


and Condi is not pretty at all.


The picture of the staff is so telling. They look like they just left the Funeral of a life long friend.

Those are some real prune faces for a sunny day in the Rose Garden.

The way to get to this Ship Of Fools is to keep on taking them on !

So far, Kerry is doing just that --keep the shit flying Kerry, Al, Franken,Clinton and Everybody that has lifted a finger for this election.

Hope we see this same sad picture when they are all in orange jumpsuits on Nov,1st.
