According to Drudge, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has recently
enjoyed a little Broadway entertainment. And Page Six reports that she's
also working on her backhand with Monica Seles. So the Gulf Coast has gone
all Mad Max, women are being raped in the Superdome, and Rice is enjoying a
brief vacation in New York. We wish we were surprised.
What does surprise us: Just moments ago at the Ferragamo on 5th Avenue,
Condoleeza Rice was seen spending several thousands of dollars on some nice,
new shoes (we've confirmed this, so her new heels will surely get coverage
from the WaPo's Robin Givhan). A fellow shopper, unable to fathom the
absurdity of Rice's timing, went up to the Secretary and reportedly shouted,
"How dare you shop for shoes while thousands are dying and homeless!" Never
one to have her fashion choices questioned, Rice had security PHYSICALLY
REMOVE the woman.

You know what, we can go back and forth about why and who should have paid
for what, state, local or federal funding. But this is a big, big,
disaster, where is the federal response?
