Condi Gets in Shape… for Gitmo?

After a very successful week of live workouts for the D.C. morning news, Condoleezza Rice has decided to take test her newfound hardbodity by training on the grounds of the only U.S. Naval base in Communist territory, “a highly successful stop for many Naval ships looking for a place for their crews to rest and relax.”

Creator of the Public Diplomacy Press Review (which I dutifully promo multiple times/week here) John Brown posted this hilarious essay at Selves and Others in which he warns Sec. Rice, of among other things, the program’s “revolutionary anti-exercise exercise program.”

I’m pretty certain Spike Lee is biting his tongue on this one, as he is already published as telling Condi to “stop smoking that crack” in the April Stuff magazine. Elsewhere, Condi’s “husband” President Bush continues making unilateral decisions regarding who is good and who is evil, with no regard (or knowledge)? of how parties such as his new friend Pervez Musharraf came to power (coup, but at least he’s not Taliban) and still apparently not briefed on the NPT.

Back home, the White House continues erasing history, or is it just threatening the messengers. And now even Tony Blair is saying “God made me do it” in reference to Iraq.

Sunday morning’s best: Rep. John Murtha on Face the Nation. (transcript) (video).
