The Guardian's Funky Take on Condi : Foxy Brown with WMD and a PhD
Edited on Fri Nov-19-04 10:12 PM by jefferson_dem
Foxy Brown with WMD and a PhD - Why Condoleezza Rice is the best black role model we've ever had

OK, so she likes invading countries, killing thousands of innocent civilians, and imposing US-style capitalism across the globe. This modern-day Boudicca is probably the most evil woman the planet has seen since Margaret Thatcher. But, that aside, you have to admit it: Condoleezza Rice is one helluva lady. Even the US president himself looked terrified of her as he gave her a nervous, faltering peck on the cheek at the announcement of his new secretary of state.

Condoleezza, aka the "Warrior Princess", has struck fear into the most powerful people in the world: and not just Saddam Hussein. It was she who declared, when three leading nations refused to back the Iraq invasion, that the United States should "punish France, ignore Germany and forgive Russia". No wonder our dear leader Tony fell in line.

And, of course, what's all the more remarkable is that "Condi" sorry, Ms Rice, hope you don't mind) is black. Not "Uncle Tom" black, just doing the white man's bidding. Not liberal-conscience black (trying desperately to change things from the inside, to make life a little less worse for the brothers and sisters). Not even martyr black (taking on the oppressors directly, but suffering a brutal backlash ending in prison, or death). No, she's totally ass-kicking black - the like of which we've never seen before. Foxy Brown with WMD and a PhD.

She's not playing to anyone's agenda but her own. Which is why, in a way, she's more powerful than any "role model" we black people have ever had. We liked her predecessor, Colin Powell, but his was a story of marginalisation and dignified silence. Someone obviously out of tune with the jackals around him, and only given a front-line role when forced to relay American lies to the world. The ultimate humiliation. You can imagine the administration's insiders saying of the "intelligence" that Powell presented to the United Nations: "We know it's rubbish; just a couple of grainy photos and a test tube. We're bound to get found out. Let's just give it to the black man so he can take the flak."

1. Black, white, green...she is still an idiot
Her leadership is unremarkable. Her ass kissing ability is superb.
I think she must have callouses on her lips.
