Different kinds of experiences in life


Saturday, CNN interviewed Condi Rice in Libya, where she had just had a major revelation: “Do you know when I felt it? I felt it when the airplane touched down. There was something about the United States of America plane touching down in Tripoli. That’s when it struck me that 55 years was a long time.”

Asked about the relevance of Libya having a shitload of oil to the US reestablishing ties with it: “And there’s nothing wrong with that. You know, we do need – we absolutely need reliable sources of oil and gas from diverse sources.” Diverse sources ranging from the mildly evil to the incredibly evil.

Asked about Sarah Palin’s foreign-policy experience: “There are different kinds of experiences in life that help one to deal with matters of foreign policy.” She was not asked what kinds of experiences in life Palin has that would help her deal with matters of foreign policy.
