The Powerful Women

The Condelezza Rice / Hillary Clinton comparisons are fun and interesting for me to watch. It is also interesting to see how they are built up and or portrayed in different lights.
I have seen no less than four pictures of Condi that make her look like the devil himself. With the proper lighting, and with her head bowed and eyes lifted up??? Wow! Looks evil.
Hillary on the other hand, no doubt is a gifted politician... let there be NO doubt of that, and anyone who underestimates her would be making a grave mistake. Anyone who knows me knows I have a history with the military. I have been hearing the stories lately of the Bush administraton taking away the combat pay of men who have been injured and are in the hospital. What a stinking load of crapola. Combat pay is for when you are in a war zone, BY LAW. It is not the Bush administration anymore than it is the Harry S. Truman administration. It is Congress for crap sake. Those lily livered people are the ones who WRITE LAW. Law, does it not mean anything? Now I am all for the military folks, but change the fricking law if that is what you want to do. Regardless, Hillary made a big tadoo about this and got lots of 'good' press. Snake in the grass stuff but looks doggone good doing it!!!
Bottom line? Gonna be a down/dirty next election. Makes me shudder to think of it.
