So US Secretary of State Condolezza Rice has left our shores. She inspired protest. She met the PM and said “New Zealand is now a friend and an ally.” She provided timely distraction for Mr Peters, travelling to meet with the Pacific Island forum. But the item that stirred my Kiwi pride was reading that one of the world’s most powerful women will soon be wearing Kiwi-made, after she “felt the urge for a little retail therapy. Auckland-based designer Adrienne Winkelmann was invited into Rice’s hotel room for a private viewing.” Who says the Standard can’t do light and fluffy somtimes?

Seems U.S. officials have a penchant for Kiwi made… remember Slick Willy and the Peri Drysdale “Untouched World” number he had at APEC here in ‘99?
Condoleezza Rice gives me the horn.
Ben, would you like her to tie you up and waterboard you?

Fashion indeed. Capitalist running dogs, the lot of you. She should be attired the same as the peasants, haven’t you been reading your manuals?!
“Ben, would you like her to tie you up and waterboard you?”
What goes on behind closed doors, between two consenting adults, is nobody elses business.
She’s still a war criminal, no matter what she wears.
