UNIT



Late last night, Condi flew from Paris to Russia to meet with her old scary obsession (Russians) about her new scary obsession, Iran's nuclear program. And through the magic of framing, we get another puzzling bit of wordplay. Um, UNIT? Please ponder the metaphors. The photographer could have shifted the field a little to the right, I suppose, and revealed the word 'unite', but, well, that wouldn't have worked symbolically, now, would it? And here's a shot of Condi using her unique brand of Ferragamo Diplomacy on Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov:



And the result of all this effort?



Failure.

I as at the Google News page JUST before I came here, and I saw that Unit picture... somehow I knew that it would be here.

OMG that last picture is so sad!
Cue Eric Carmen song:

All by myself,
don't wanna be,
all by myself,
anymore.


*snif*

Okay, I'm better now...
