Matt Drudge has it up and Dan Senor has the poop:

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is actively courting the Vice Presidential nomination, according to Republican Strategist Dan Senor. “Condi Rice has been actively, actually in recent weeks, campaigning for this,” Senor said this morning on “This Week with George Stephanopoulos.”

According to Senor, Rice has been cozying up to the Republican elite. “There’s this ritual in Washington, the Americans for Tax Reform, which is headed by Grover Norquist, he holds a weekly meeting of conservative leaders, about 100, 150 people, sort of inside, chattering, class types,” Senor explained. “They all typically get briefings from political conservative leaders. Ten days ago, they had an interesting visit. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. The first time a Secretary of State has visited the Wednesday Meeting.”

An excellent candidate but is she too close to President Bush for the GOP and John McCain’s liking? Rice is from California and would appeal to those moderate and independent voters in the Golden State.

However, Rice is pro-choice on abortion and will run into trouble with conservatives on this issue. Plus, she lacks executive experience.

Rice is an accomplished Secretary of State but Flap thinks there are better Vice Presidential choices for Senator McCain.

US President George W. Bush and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice talk with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, on the third day of the NATO Summit conference in Bucharest, Friday April 4 2008.

U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice (R) announces economic sanctions on Iran to pressure it to halt its nuclear program as U.S. Secretary of Treasury Henry Paulson stands next to her at the State Department in Washington October 25, 2007.

Are the latest United States economic sanctions the end of the line for Iran’s nuclear program?

Apparently

B-2 Stealth Bomber. Citing an “urgent operational need”, the Pentagon has asked Congress for funds to modify B-2 stealth bombers to deliver an experimental 30,000 pound, satellite-guided bunker busting bomb, officials said Wednesday.

Why else was this leaked and why are these B-2′s in Guam?

An $88 million appropriation is nothing and does anyone want to bet one of these Guam visiting B-2′s are already modified? Besides the 30,000 pound “Bunker Buster” bomb can already be delivered by the B-1 or B-52. They are just not “STEALTH” and could be intercepted by Iranian anti-aircraft defenses.

So, what is the United States telling Iran?

What they should have told them over a year ago. Stop the uranium enrichment and the development of nuclear weapons or we will stop it for you.

Stay tuned…….

The Code Pinkos strike again – this time with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.

Secretary Rice was confronted prior to her testimony before the House Foreign Relations Committee where she testified that Iran represented “perhaps the single greatest challenge” to United States Security.

Flap is nonplussed that the Democrats (who run the House) don’t provide better security BEFORE the Capitol Police throw their PINK ASSES out.

Now, will they be prosecuted?

Rice: No War Plans Against Iran

The U.S. is not preparing for war against Iran and Vice President Dick Cheney supports that policy, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice says, taking a swipe at a U.N. official who says he’s worried about “crazies” who want to start bombing.

“The president of the United States has made very clear what our policy is. That policy is supported by all the members of his Cabinet and by the vice president of the United States,” Rice said Friday.

“The president has made clear that we are on a diplomatic course,” she said in regard to U.S. opposition to Iran’s nuclear ambitions.

Rice, in Spain at the close of a European visit, was asked about the comments of the chief of the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency. Mohamed ElBaradei was quoted by the BBC as warning against the views of “new crazies who say ‘let’s go and bomb Iran.’”

Gad….ElBaradei was referring to Senator and GOP Presidential candidate John McCain:

This is not to say that United States policy should not exclude military action.  But, for now, President Bush has ordered a diplomatic track of negotiations to deal with the Iran nuclear crisis.

ElBaradei is NOT helping diplomacy by leaping to conclusions.

Stay tuned…….

US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice addresses the media at a Women Leaders conference for Peace and Security in the Middle East in Vienna, 31 May 2007. Rice told Iran to change tactics and freeze uranium enrichment, but Tehran remained defiant ahead of talks on its nuclear programme with the European Union.

It won’t make any difference.

Iran covets nuclear weapons and will not voluntarily halt uranium enrichment.

CONDI RICE FOR GOVERNOR?

Flap says she is IN……..

Alberto Fernandez

Remember this MORON?

Remember that Flap said Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice needs to bring Fernandez in for a WOODSHED TALK.

So, what does the United States State Depatment do?

Fox News: Public Praise

Remember Alberto Fernandez? The State Department press officer was forced to apologize last month after telling Al Jazeera that the U.S. had shown “arrogance” and “stupidity” in Iraq.

Well after a month of silence, the State Department is finally speaking out on Fernandez — not to condemn him, but to praise his “integrity, courage, [and] sensitivity.”

Fernandez was selected from three department nominees for the Edward R. Murrow Award for Excellence in Public Diplomacy by Tufts University… for his work with pan-Arab media … to increase the number of appearances by U.S. officials.

He receives a certificate signed by Secretary Condoleezza Rice — and $10,000 in cash.

Does anyone wonder why the GOP lost control of Congress and the President’s polling numbers are in the basement?

Michelle Malkin has more.

This is, after all, the same U.S. State Department that gave performance awards to bureaucrats responsible for the lax visa policies that paved the way for the 9/11 terrorists.
