Rice To Take Lessons From Rwandan Genocide
I hate this woman already. I wish her all the luck in the world. But I hate her. Please stop telling me all the great things you are going to do and how you are going to do them (excuse me, have to do them, because only you know unlike everybody else who tried and failed so valiantly before you graced us with your presence at the UN). Just do them. Let us be the judge of what a great person you are. You got made ambassador, now enough already. STFU and go make the world a better place.
The genocide, Rice says, has strengthened her determination to be more active in prevention and conflict resolution.
“I would rather be a lone and a loud voice for action than be silent,” she says. “I am more than willing to do that.”
Oh, super. I bet all those people that got “genocided” are fucking thrilled that it strengthened your determination. And, umm, maybe you’d “rather” but you won’t. You’ll do what your boss tells you or you’ll be the former-ambassador. Good luck with that whole truth thing. You obviously didn’t get where you are by taking chances with what was right.
One word – Sudan. Don’t kid yourself – Samantha Power should be where you are.

OK, I’ll bite. Who is Susan Rice and why should we care?

OMFG, she’s Condi’s sister! I shoulda known.
I see somebody has been busy redecorating the place. Nice new curtains, JR, but we need moron pictures.
Where did the Greek scenery go?

OK, I finally got fed up with Kris7′s multiple inane posts on CFN, so I let her have it. Then OEO told her and a few other morons posting today to take a hike. Sometimes I truly love that man.
Ah, Mondays.

Susan is not Condi’s sister. And nobody ever said Condi was a good person (except not here).
Susan Rice is the US ambassador to the UN. Where the fuck have you been?
I’m glad somebody else besides me sees OEO’s “good” side. Kris7? sorry don’t read. Only read OEO, asoka, Snowjob and the other usuals. Which means OEO so far this week. (It’s a good one). Yarra posts once in a while. And You. Thought I saw Remus the other day. I was probably drinking.
I don’t read anybody else. I mean that. I might skim some stuff. But it is nothing like the old days. It’s JHK’s fault mostly. We all have our own own websites or have moved on. JHK just doesn’t hold anybody’s attention. It’s a fucked up thing for me too. I’d be drummin’ up support right now. He just could never figure that marketing thing right.
Rehashing the same 1000 words every week just don’t work the same way it used to. Whoops. I think Nudge calls that schadenfreude, I’m not sure if my spellcheck gets that, but I know Jim does. Suck it, douchebag.

I was just kidding about the Rice last name similarity–everybody just loves Condi–NOT. I have not kept up with the Obamanation’s various appointments, other than the real obvious ones. This whole federal changing of the guard, pour moi, is like a simple play that you already know how the plot turns out, so I cringe a lot these days and try not to think about our “progress”.
Watch Europe. They are the miner’s canary, especially eastern Europe. It will spread to the west, only a matter of how long.
Maybe Japan and China will rule the world, what’s left of it.

Have you read “A Distant Mirror” by Barbara Touchman? It’s about society in the Dark Ages of Europe, mid-1300s. I need to buy a copy. Sounds like a book dave would love.

Thought I had the wrong place for a moment. This chick would do better to drop 100k to the Red Cross or Medicins Sans Frontiers rather than throwing a hissy fir from a safe distance.
Am I daft? How do you get to Cultural Area and the other old tabs – I’m a bit of a Luddite where this stuff is concerned – forgive me.

Whoops. Yeah, just post anywhere.I’m searching for a new image and that one doesn’t seem to have a cultural area. It’ll be back soon… I hope.

That’s correct. If you came looking for the Susan Rice and cannibalism blog, you found the right place.
If you were looking for connubialism, we are working on that.
