#4 If Condi wants to bring the Germans to heel, she should wear the full leather dominatrix outfit, including the whip.

#6 So the Post is now in the business of fashion reporting. Whenever an American official makes an important visit to Auswitz or Wiesbaden all the Post can report on is their attire. WADDA waste of newsprint. BTW, I don't ever recall such a detailed description of Powell's clothes.

#9 ed, to quote Stan Marsh (South Park), "What the f*ck is wrong with German people?"

#10 BTW, from the picture of Condi testifying, it looks like she has learned some of Rumsfeld's karate moves.

#14 from Nancy Sinatra (1966) - Seems appropriate here...

You keep playin' where you shouldn't be playin
and you keep thinkin' that youÂ´ll never get burnt.
Ha!
I just found me a brand new box of matches yeah
and what he know you ain't HAD time to learn.
These boots are made for walking, and that's just what they'll do
one of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you.

Are you ready boots? Start walkin'!

#16 Tibor - BTW, from the picture of Condi testifying, it looks like she has learned some of Rumsfeld's karate moves.

Actually that jesture looks like the "T. rex" warning,
"Mess with me and I'll eat you alive..."

#17 Its ok, guys. Robin Givhan is the fashion editor at the WaPost. She is supposed to think this way -- even though it reads as no-penis envy. I just hope her editors didn't choose to print this on their front page.

#19 Granted, TW. Now, can we expect the Post to send a war or political correspondent to cover the Oscars?

#20 Givhan's story ran today on the front page of the WaPo Style section. The picture ran first on the front page of yesterday's WaPo. It's a very powerful picture...

#21 Go Condi! Condi Rocks. We should just start calling her Madame President now.
