Tremendously Impressed

Rice should hand timetables to Israel and the Palestinians for meeting their short-term peace obligations, such as an Israeli settlement freeze and a Palestinian arms roundup, to boost trust ahead of a U.S.-hosted Mideast conference, a senior Palestinian negotiator said Monday.

Hooray! Condi has achieved the matching armchairs! And you know she's accomplished, oh, just loads when the Associated Press sees fit to publish two entire sentences about the event:

RAMALLAH, West Bank - Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Monday that Israel and the Palestinians are "moving toward an understanding" that a U.S.-sponsored conference can be a forum to restart long-stalled peace talks.

Rice, speaking at a news conference with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, also said she was "tremendously impressed by the seriousness" Israeli and Palestinian leaders have shown in moving toward renewed peace talks.


Gosh, that's not vague at all!

UPDATE: Also this morning, Condi expressed her desire to see Pakistan returned to "normal", but more importantly, to see Musharref naked:

Rice said Musharraf should stick to his word and "take off his uniform," the agency reported. "I want to be very clear. We believe that the best path for Pakistan is to quickly return to a constitutional path and then to hold elections," she said in comments carried by AP

Wow. Matching armchairs, big and little copies of flags, each person in front of the correct flag and Mideast Kleenex!

Peace in the Middle East! Just around the corner! Yay!

Princess, as bad as the Ted Stevens photoshop was a few months back, putting the nekkid Musharraf in our heads to start the week may be even worse. Ick!

Nobody wants to see Mursharaf's little dick-tator.

Whoa, I think this is the first time I've noticed La Condi sitting on the left -- what can this mean? No wonder she wants to see Abba(s) naked--you know how crazy those lefties are.

It means that overseas, Condi is seen as sinister.
