Condoleeza Rice In Tripoli yesterday, rebels ransacking Moammar Gadhafi's residence found what the State Department called one "deeply creepy" find: a photo album with page after page of pictures of Condoleeza Rice, the United States secretary of State under George W. Bush.

Date: 2011-08-26 05:51 am (UTC)(A dupe of what I posted in gridlore's LJ:) I have to break with my liberal bretheren here and say... I really feel sorry for Dr. Rice. :( This is the sort of thing that nobody will ever forget or let you forget -- misogynist friend and political/ideological foe alike -- and you'll get unfortunate questions from your children, from your family, from total strangers about it. It distracts from the very real and very serious things that Dr. Rice was a party to while she was associated with the Bush Administration.
Besides which... I really don't wish this on anyone in anyone's administration. (This is only a mostly true statement because I don't want to think of politicians being the object of someone's fantasies, the majority of said politicians being manky old rich dudes with anomalously good hair.)
