You're the racist. You automatically give Condie special treatment for her dark beigeness and, probably, her gender. I don't. I measure everyone by the same yardstick.

No.. I give her credit for being far more educated that you (or I) will ever DREAM of being.

She speaks French, Russian, German, and Spanish. She got her PhD at age 26. She studied to be a concert pianist (but claimed she wan't quite good enough to make a living at it).

As Stanford's Provost, Dr. Rice was responsible for managing the university's multi-billion dollar budget. The school at that time was over $20,000,000 in debt. When Rice took office, she promised that the budget deficit would be balanced within "two years". Says Coit Blacker, Stanford's deputy director of the Institute for International Studies, "There was a sort of conventional wisdom that said it couldn't be done . . . that [the deficit] was structural, that we just had to live with it." Two years later, Rice convened a meeting to announce that not only had the deficit been balanced, but the university was holding a record surplus of over $14,500,000 [19].

Now for you to claim she's just "lazy and incompetent" is INCREDIBLY STUPID.

And considering the dysfunction, and incompetent logical process that you rely upon, you're not fit to pick up her garbage.
