...feminist premise, it seems, TV is not quite ready to treat powerful women as it treats powerful men. The show's creator, Rod Lurie, probably just meant to make Allen the enemy of politics as usual. But it's a rough message to send to Hillary--or Condi Rice or any other woman who will have to rely on politics as usual, not a contrived TV plot, to become President. And who faces the sexist paradox: if you get ahead in party politics, you must be a bitch, a lesbian ... a man. If not, then you're too womanly...
...diplomat, of "dealing with international affairs and contacting world leaders." But without a word of explanation, Assad nixed his New York City trip. Diplomatic sources tell TIME that he failed in his attempts to arrange tête-à-têtes with the Presidents of Russia and Turkey. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice also pointedly left Assad out of a meeting with European and other Middle Eastern leaders. (The only one willing to meet with him, the sources say, was Iran's new President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.) Assad's emerging status as a political leper comes amid an intensifying U.S. campaign against Syria...
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice accused Iran of seeking nuclear weapons capability Saturday, as Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad countered with a series of proposals at the United Nations designed to defuse those fears.

...bayou blunders also intruded on a pre-summit visit Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice paid to Arthur Ochs Sulzberger Jr., publisher of The New York Times, and his "publishers luncheon." She was asked about the possibility that Katrina had fueled perceptions "that George Bush doesn't care about black people." Rice said it was "poisonous" for someone to suggest that the president would decide who ought to be helped on the basis of color. "You know the phrase that actually attracted me to him more than anything else didn't have anything to do with foreign policy-it was actually...
...Condi Under Pressure "The Condi Doctrine" compared U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice with George Marshall, the U.S. Secretary of State responsible for the Marshall Plan, which helped rebuild Europe in the aftermath of World War II [Aug. 15-22]. The Marshall Plan helped restore Europe after a devastating war by relieving, as Marshall put it, "hunger, poverty, desperation and chaos." The Condi (and Bush) doctrine attempts to restore Iraq by forcing democracy down Iraqis' throats, using coercion and military occupation. Notwithstanding Rice's and the Administration's claim that the insurgency is coming under control, the body count keeps...
