What do you think of Condi and the boots?

Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A51640-2005Feb24.html?nav=rss_politics)

Rice's coat and boots speak of sex and power -- such a volatile combination, and one that in political circles rarely leads to anything but scandal. When looking at the image of Rice in Wiesbaden, the mind searches for ways to put it all into context. It turns to fiction, to caricature. To shadowy daydreams. Dominatrix! It is as though sex and power can only co-exist in a fantasy. When a woman combines them in the real world, stubborn stereotypes have her power devolving into a form that is purely sexual.

I prefer seeing Condi in those boots than Karl Rove.



The whole outfit she's wearing is very 1930s Germany, don't you think?

Egad! She's wearing...boots! Women don't wear boots! She must be a witch! Burn her at the stake! Then toss her into the lake and see if she floats!
