Condi as a belly-dancer?

[Ernesto]

"Foreign flicks depict god-awful Americans
On-screen they are bullies, rapists and mindless killers"
Cairo -- When U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice visited this city last month, Egyptians had an unusual choice: watch her on TV as she expounded on issues of war and peace in the Middle East, or go to a neighborhood movie theater and see her portrayed by a look-alike actress belly-dancing and placed in "adult" situations.

1. I know which one I would want to see! n/t

3. Like Steve Earle, I'm a Condi man myself...

Oh Condi Condi beggin’ on my knees
Open up your heart and let me in wontcha please
Got no money but everybody knows
I love you Condi and I’ll never let you go
Sweet and dandy pretty as can be
You be the flower and I’ll be the bumble bee
Oh she loves me oops she loves me not
People say you’re cold but I think you’re hot

Oh, Condi, Condi
Oh, Condi, Condi

Oh Condi, Condi I’m talkin’ to you girl
What’s it gonna hurt come on give me a whirl
Shake your body now let me see you go
One time for me Oh Condi I love you so
Skank for me Condi show me what you got
They say you’re too uptight I say you’re not
Dance around me spinnin’ like a top
Oh Condi Condi Condi don’t ever stop

Oh Condi Condi Can’t you hear me call
I’m standin’ in the street outside your garden wall
Pocketful of money belly full of wine
Condi in my heart and romance on my mind
Listen to me Condi don’t be afraid
I come here tonight to chase your blues away
I’ll never hurt you I’ll treat you right
Oh Condaleeza won’t you come out tonight

Pretty little Condi precious as can be
Bet you never had another lover like me

5. It's a Steve Earle song, pretty funny one, too. I'm just kidding,

I'm not really a Condi man, either.

[monktonman]

7. ok I get it

still gross though

6. If they were smart, they would watch her on tv

it might be funnier to watch a look-alike of Rice placed in "adult" situations, but focusing on her sexuality and closing your ears to the scary shit coming out of her mouth isn't a smart thing to do...especially if you're a country in the ME. She isn't just a mouthpiece wearing a skirt, she wields actual power and shouldn't be underestimated because of her gender.

[Ernesto]

14. "she wields actual power"

Only if she robotic-ally repeats the chimp's company line......
Not much room for creativity here.... She is a pretty good "token" however.

[Fleshdancer]

15. So the Sec. of State of the US is powerless?

It's not Rice that is repeating the words of Bush, it's Bush repeating the words of Rice, Cheney, etc. We can hate her all we want, but do we really want to underestimate her?

[Ernesto]

17. Little more than a brown talking (lying) head ....... n-t

[salin]

8. these folks, due to their own policies, have become so reviled

that movies of such audacious themes would have an audience. How embarassing- a US Secretary of State - as the theme for such a movie. Ugh.

9. through the wonders of Photoshop

10. Hey, can I borrow that?

I want to post it on a belly-dancer board I frequent. They'll flip out!

[kwassa]

12. I stole it myself, feel free.

11. They showed us that movie in middle school during sex-ed.

They told us it was supposed to teach us how horrible sex was. It turned me off real quick. Then I forgot about a few days later. Thanks for reminding me. These next couple of weeks are going to be lonely. ;)

13. The mind boggles, the stomach churns, at either prospect.
