Goodbye Miss Rice!!! You will not be missed!!!!!!!

Candy,

where are you going with that bellman jacket on?

As a side note, Secretary Rice was named this week as one of Glamour magazine’s Women of the Year. Here’s a bit on her from the magazine. She has been very active in women’s rights issues:

Quietly but forcefully, Rice helped to both secure a $50 million presidential initiative to fight sex and labor slavery worldwide and launch the first major women’s health campaign in the Middle East. This year, she started the $100 million One Woman Initiative, a public-private partnership that trains Muslim women for leadership. “The difference she’s made is immeasurable,” says Carly Fiorina, a cochair of One Woman. “She’s a visionary,” agrees Democratic strategist Donna Brazile. “She’s created innovative programs for women to serve in leadership roles, helping them to reform their governments.”

I ain’t mad at Condoleezza (damn that is a job just to type that name out) she is high up in a man’s world. She has to wear the hell outta them power suits. Do yo’ thang!

KAS…

She also sold her soul for the Bush adm and Collen Powell did as well!

Also, you can do a Google and find photos of Dr. Rice at the Glamour awards. Dare I say, she looks very stylish and sophisticated.

She also has done some recent interviews on the impact of the election, and she had some very thoughtful things to say about Obama. Yes, I disagree with most of her positions over the years, but there’s no doubt that she is a historic figure who achieved a milestone as an African-American woman. Below are some of her thoughts from her recent C-SPAN interview:

SECRETARY RICE: Well, I was a child in Birmingham, Alabama, and in 1963, which had been a very, very violent year, with police dogs in the park that Bull Connor had sicced on innocent protesters, or the constant bombings that were in neighborhoods like my own neighborhood in Birmingham, a nice, middle-class neighborhood that was shattered by bombings every several weeks, and then you had the events at 16th Street Baptist Church. And I remember very well being at church, at my father’s church which was just down the street, Westminster Presbyterian, and there was a kind of rumble. And everyone wondered what it was. It was long before cell phones, of course. But somehow the word began to spread that there had been a bombing at the church. And as it became clear that little girls had died in that church, I think the terror, really homegrown terrorism, had come to Birmingham in a very dramatic way. And Denise McNair, one of the little girls that was killed in that church, had been a friend of mine, a kindergarten friend of mine, and it’s hard to believe that that Birmingham gave way, first of all, that the successor to Bull Connor is actually a black woman, it’s hard to believe. But over time, of course, America has begun to heal her – her racial wounds, and that culminated in the election of Barack Obama.

QUESTION: What were you personally thinking, if you saw Barack Obama on that stage in Grant Park in Chicago or saw him as the President-elect this past week?

SECRETARY RICE: Well, I made the statement shortly after the election that I was just enormously proud of Americans for I think setting race aside. I think what you really saw here was that race is no longer the factor in American identity and American life, and that’s a huge step forward.

I’ve just been also in the Middle East, and there it was seen that a country that had such deep racial divisions – I’ve said myself that America had a birth defect, slavery – and that we could overcome that and that you could have, of course, this really quantum leap to a black – the election of the first African American president, but really something that’s been going on a while. When you look at American life now, you see that America has had a black chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (inaudible) in Colin Powell, back-to-back black Secretaries of State; Tiger Woods, probably the most recognizable athlete; Oprah Winfrey, someone who transcends race in many ways, as the most popular figure. I think what is being seen around the world is that old wounds can be overcome. And in a world where difference is still a license to kill, that’s an extremely important message.

QUESTION: I want to come back to that point, but for you personally, have you ever felt racism?

SECRETARY RICE: Oh, I grew up in Birmingham, Alabama; it was hard not to feel racism. Whether it was going into a store and hearing my mother tell the store clerk, well, no, she’s not going to try that dress on in a storeroom. If she can’t try it on in the fitting room like all little girls do, then we won’t buy that dress. Or shortly after the Civil Rights Act had passed in 1964, going through a hamburger stand and being given a hamburger that was all onions.

Of course racism was a daily companion in Birmingham. But what was remarkable was that I had parents who refused to let it become crippling. They refused to let me be bitter. They refused to let me use it as an excuse, and they somehow managed to send the message that racism was somebody else’s problem, not mine.

QUESTION: So with the election of Barack Obama and how we’re viewed around the world, what do you think is going to change, if anything?

SECRETARY RICE: Well, first of all, like every President, I’m sure that soon-to-be-President Obama will defend American interests, and sometimes that will be popular and sometimes it won’t. But it is very clear that the message of America as a place that has overcome its wounds, America as a place where race didn’t matter in preventing the election of the first African America President; these are extremely important messages.

Leave Condi alone. Sista is just trying to do her job. I work for “the man” too and have to do sh*t I hate. I think she voted for Obama. She normally doesn’t put her business in the streets…

why you gotta knock condi? i like condi and i love michelle. PEACE PLEASE…

she dressin like she str8 outta of star wars movie

With that outfit, she belongs in the Matrix

Here is a tip for Conde, fix your hair. It looks a mess.

Dont dare put Condi down, she is one of the most respected women in this world. Her and Michelle will make a good team and hopefully that could happen.

did she endorse any canidate? what does it mean that Democrats prepare to move forward with investigations of the Bush administration… Developing… What can the citizen look in to, actually what’s to be sought after? Insomuch Spitzer we know fairly well, but what can be relayed on this lame duck administration?

Conde one word: awkward

Whatever Condi just start packing ya bags. Bye!

lol some1 said Blade…

1st thing I thought was she just stepped out the Matrix….or in it.

she’s dressed like darth vador

Some of you blacks are not very intelligent at all. Do you realize how amazing this woman really is? How great a role model she is for young black girls? S**king a pink what? To the person who wrote that, please do all of us a favor and go to hell. The last thing blacks needs are asshole coons and slave girls/boys like you. You definitely belong on the plaantation; you’re soooooo stupid. What a loser.

People may not like her participation w/GWB, but this is one hell of an accomplished, smart, brilliant woman. I give her mad props!

Well… there’s nothing wrong with Condie offering her advice (even if its unnecessary). I just hope she’s open to listening to Michelle if she were to offer Condie some advice on some good (hair) styling products, and a good relaxer w/a trim!!!

What magazine was this pulled from?

was that pic. taken on Oct. 31????

good role model for young black girls…SYKE! For her to be on one of the most tragic government administrations since Lenon, Hitler, Liverpool, G. Washington, Alexander, is nothing for a young Black girl to look up to.

good role model for young black girls,Role model here, role model there. Condi will go with Bush in history as the worst leadership the united state ever had . so what a role model?

I love that jab that she took at Sarah Plain!!!! DO you Dr. Rice, I’m not mad at you!!

SHE ISN’T NOTHING BUT AN OLD A** DRIED UP SALLY HEMMINGS ONE A BE CAN’T WAIT TILL BUSH AND HIS PLANTATION ARE OUT

wow, all the hatred.. Ms. Condeleeza…NO DR. Rice has acheived more at her age than most of us female or male will ever acheive in an entire lifetime and yet people still dog her simply b/c she is a republican.. Dr Rice is a highly educated black female who has accomplished so much. She has helped others less fortunate than her. Dr. Rice has earned the respect of many..so yes in the end she can be considered a role model..She should not be solely accountable for the fall of the republicans.. and all that she has accomplished should not be dismissed so easily either.

Love how the black community hates on one of the most powerful women in US history, also a black woman, just because she isn’t a shuck and jive democrat. Oh yeah I forgot, black people can’t have their own opinions and if they have thoughts or ideals that don’t walk lock and step with the black community at large they are vilified and ostracized. Here is a black woman fluent in Russian, a concert pianist, the former provost of a world famous university and current Secretary of State negotiating with world leaders, and yet she is not embraced… but Keyshia Cole is. Not that rappes and singers aren’t cool, but who do you want your kids to look up to? Somehow whites, asians, and hispanics can have diversity in political views but not blacks.

wake the f&ck up black people.

dear game recognize me,

What the ef is wrong with disliking this diehard Bushian conservative? It’s not that she’s a black republican, it’s that she’s too closely associated with failure and ruin, regardless of how well she plays the friggin piano and speaks Russian. Who cares?

FYI, , whites, asians, and hispanics voice plenty of contempt for people of their own race with opposing political views. What planet are you on?

It’s a damn shame that Condi Rice does not get the respect from Black people like she should. If she were a Democrat your comments would be positive. Respect her for who she is not whether she is a Democrat or Republican. Black folks do not even acknowledge her. I’ve been places where a Black Speaker would give props only to Black Democrats and never acknowledge Condi Rice or other Blacks (republicans) who have made their mark. Unfortunately sad but true. Why does that have to happen?
