Yes, it is.
She is singled out time and time again, subject to fierce attacks on the basis of her black skin color by Dems who resent her for being a conservative black person. She did a remarkable job for Bush 1 and a very decent job as Secretary of State and has had significant achievements outside of politics, beyond what any woman of her generation has achieved. In all cases she has remained humble and hard working behind the scenes. Her record of high achievement and humanitarianism is long, interesting, and remains spotless of any blemishes on her character (except for the trumped up phoney shit balls you guys throw at her).
Compare her to other Secretary of States if you like and the attention from the public they have received ... how about Madeline Albright (who received the honor of a humanitarian award, the Presidential Medal of Freedom from the Dem Administration in 2012). Yahh the same Madeline Albright who had government forces annihilate private citizen compounds more than once like at the Mount Carmel Center where 76 men, women, and children were killed. Madeline figured the deaths of half a million children would be worth it if the Clinton sanctions worked. On May 12, 1996, Madeleine Albright, (then U.S Ambassador the United Nations appeared on a 60 Minutes segment in which Lesley Stahl asked her "We have heard that half a million children have died. I mean, that's more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it?" and Albright replied "we think the price is worth it."
Well it seems worth it to Dems, while fierce racists attacks on an honorable person like Condoleeza seem justifiable to the Dem establishment... and stuff like that is why I will never again join a party. |
