Obama, Condoleezza Rice to meet at White House
2010-10-16
(KUNA) -- President Barack B.O. Obama was scheduled to meet at the White House on Friday with former US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to discuss a range of issues, White House deputy front man Bill Burton said.
Oh, to be a fly on that wall! The president will find it a learning experience. She has an awful lot of experience handling students like him. Plus she's done real things in the real world. She is, in fact, everything he pretends to be, except for the marriage and children part.
Rice was in Washington to address the National Press Club as part of a book promotion effort she has been engaged in this week.

"She was going to be in town, and the President obviously could not make her book party later today," Burton told news hounds traveling aboard Air Force One with the President. "But he wanted to bring her in and have a chat with her. I am sure they will talk about a wide range of foreign policy issues".

The meeting will last about 30 minutes, Burton said.

#9  I despised Bubba. Discussed a hypothetical w/my dad. What if I did something above & beyond that I got acknowledged by the WH. What do I do?


You go - because you respect the office.

#7  The Washington Post reports that subsequent to the meeting, Professor Rice refused to criticize the president, nor to question his actions or his patriotism, and she was supportive of her successor. Good for her.

#6  a) Asks her to retrieve Churchill bust.

b) Asks for advice on handling Michelle.

c) Asks how Bush endured 06-08.

d) Hits on her for a job in the NFL Commissioner's office.

#5  Condi is a class act. I didn't agree with everything she said or did (and said so here at the time) but I admire her.

#4  Typo above:

If one were a fly on the wall at this meeting, you'd hear the President lament, "Condie, why didn't you tell me that all of my years stapling fliers to telephone poles in Chicago wouldn't prepare me for this job".

#2  It gives me a queasy feeling. The only way I would meet with our current President would be if a gun were held to my head. I have no confidence in anyone who has held a highish position in government in the last 30 years. Except Rummie. And maybe Cheney.
