What would you say to a "liberal" who says they'd vote for Condi...

[ButterflyBlood]

if she was nominated in 2008 by the Repukes (ha ha! yeah right) even though they think she's done a terrible job and completely disagree with her but think it's most important to finally have a black and woman president?

I'm thinking of simply "you're fucking stupid" which is fairly accurate but I'd like to use a little more tact.

[Aristus]

1. "You're fucking stupid, and you're not a liberal."

'Nuff said.

[NMDemDist2]

2. some one called Ed Schulz and said the same thing

Eddie fed it to her.

[The Sheik]

3. "Quit watching MTV and Animal Planet and look at the fucking news"

[zmdem]

4. I doubt she will seek the nomination

In modern times, those who serve in cabinet posts tend not to look to the presidency.

5. It's a choice

Either you can choose a good paying job with benefits for one black woman, or you can choose good paying jobs and health care for millions of blacks and women.

In this case, you can't have both.

6. blech

7. I think "you're fucking stupid" is the perfect comment.

It is short, to the point, and exactly correct. I would add, "go away" as well, but that's just me. I'm getting pretty particular about who I will tolerate sharing my valuable time with.

8. I think "you're fucking stupid" is THE PERFECT COMMENT TO!

What else is there to say?

[MidwestMomma]

9. I can see how it would be tempting

As a woman, I can see how it would be tempting to want to break through that barrier and have a woman president regardless of their character or political leanings.

But that being said, I don't see that it would EVER happen so I don't think I'll have to making this choice anytime soon.

What's interesting is my daughter and I actually had a conversation about this one time. We were discussing if we would cross party lines to vote along gender lines to support a woman candidate. We never came to a consensus, was just an interesting discussion.

So maybe this liberal is just mulling the idea around like we were. That is the hallmark of a liberal, being open-minded and willing to discuss things. (Well, I think so anyway. :))

10. "You have not done your civic duty to stay informed especially during..

...a time of extreme crisis. Shame on you, and start reading."

Either that, or "You are not a liberal."

[RaleighNCDUer]

11. IMO, 'you're fucking stupid' is about as tactful as I could get. nt

12. To me Condi isn't black, neither a woman....

If I were to read her words I would think she was an old white man....and as for her getting nominated, there's about as much chance of that as pigs growing wings and flying, since the Republican Party is the party of racists...

[Spirochete]

13. I'd bet a lot of liberals

would love to see Condi as the Republican presidential candidate in 2008. She'd get beat like an ugly stepchild - barring the Diebold/disenfranchisement/Republicans-cheating-in-general factor.

[devilgrrl]

14. You've got to be fucking kidding me!!!!!

Get off my planet!

[Booster]

15. One word - Why?

[alcuno]

16. There is a reason why she had an oil tanker named after her.

"The Condoleezza Rice is classified as a "Suezmax" tanker--a name derived from its breadth, the maximum permitted to pass through the Suez Canal. Suezmaxes are typically used to ferry crude oil out of resource-rich West Africa, where Chevron has invested $4.4 billion since 1990. The Condoleezza Rice stops frequently in the region: in Nigeria's Niger Delta, where continual oil spills have left the groundwater poisoned (and where a Chevron-hired "kill-and-go" security squad gunned down two protesters in 1998); in Angola, where Western oil money, often in the form of signing bonuses to the government, continues to finance a 25-year-long civil war; and in the Democratic Republic of Congo, which for three years has been embroiled in its own brutal war. Indeed, were Condoleezza Rice herself to retrace the path of her namesake, she might find the trip instructive as to the effects of the oil trade on "national security."

"I'm very proud of my association with Chevron, and I think we should be very proud of the job that American oil companies are doing in ... making certain that we have a safe energy supply," Rice continued last summer, in her (and Chevron's) defense. Perhaps she did not care to contemplate her namesake's pernicious wake, as it were--the oil spills, labor exploitation, and political destabilization endemic to the global oil trade, not to mention the smog, global warming, and other consequences of the West's reliance on hydrocarbon fuels.

17. I would smile

and say, you do know she's sleeping with Bush, right? Then I would mention Condi calling Bush husb in front of a bunch of NYT reporters.

[dpbrown]

18. Pol Pot was Cambodian

Didn't do the freaking Cambodians much good, did it?

[mopaul]

19. fucking stupid asses, support kkkondi & you've given up liberalism

can't have the two concepts in the same skull.

[kodi]

20. i would refer to such a person as an ignorant racist.

and i would be correct.

[wadestock]

21. You're completely confused

Condi is there to make sure there is NO foreign policy while they continue their neocon initiatives.

This is the ultimate of the peter principle for the very reason that they have an agenda that has to be promoted.
