Condi Goes Shopping
"Condoleeza Rice has to make lightning quick decisions for president and country. But when it comes to girly things, she is, well, very girly. The national security advisor spent two hours recently at the 7th Avenue showroom of Osacr de la Renta, trying to make up her mind about a gown. It all worked out, and Rice exited Oscar's trailed by dogs, security men and her hard-thought-out dress. Fashion can as taxing as international politics."

Liz Smith, Los Angeles Times, September 10,2003
While she and the cartel send our women and men to suffer and die in Iraq, and the U.S. goes to hell. Shades of MarieAntoinette. :mad:

1. trailed by dogs and security men
even with an Oscar de la Renta gown, that is all she can get to trail her?

2. She ain't got time to read the report
that says the yellowcake claim is a lie, but she's got two hours to shop?

3. She's just a typical Imperial Aristocrat
Who cares what the Cannon Fodder thinks?

Of course, she has time to shop for dresses. A Bushevik Family Capo needs to look their best as much as anyone in Ferdinand Marcos' or Adolf Hitler's High Born Circle.

Of course, this being Amerika, even our Bloated Uncaring Aristcracy is "more inclusive".

But it is still a Bloated Moribund Aristocracy.
