Who's Your Daddy, Condi?

She doesn't even have a husband!

May 18, 2004 3:45:40 PM from JoeUser ForumsJoeUser Forums
I had to make comment on this before it slipped out of my head and things of greater consequence filled its place.

Condi Rice considers George W Bush her husband.

Here's the source:
(for the actual link, click Here)
"A pressing issue of dinner-party etiquette is vexing Washington, according to a story now making the D.C. rounds: How should you react when your guest, in this case national-security adviser Condoleezza Rice, makes a poignant faux pas? At a recent dinner party hosted by New York Times D.C. bureau chief Philip Taubman and his wife, Times reporter Felicity Barringer, and attended by Arthur Sulzberger Jr., Maureen Dowd, Steven Weisman, and Elisabeth Bumiller, Rice was reportedly overheard saying, “As I was telling my husb—” and then stopping herself abruptly, before saying, “As I was telling President Bush.” Jaws dropped, but a guest says the slip by the unmarried politician, who spends weekends with the president and his wife, seemed more psychologically telling than incriminating. Nobody thinks Bush and Rice are actually an item. A National Security Council spokesman laughed and said, “No comment.”"

What does this say about their relationship? In more ways than one, this is scary!

I have made the same sort of slip fairly often. I am so used to saying "yeah like i said to my wife" that I will say it even when I mean someone else. This is a basis for criticism? Very thin folks, very thin.

It reminds me of a funny story when I first met my wife.
At the time she shared a house with two other people David and Jane. We had been seeing each other pretty frequently for about a month and every so often she would call me David. At first I let this pass but as the relationship got more serious I couldn't hold back and took her to task on it. She told me it was only because she had shared the house with David for so long and was so used to talking to him that she would do it sometimes without thinking. I let it drop, but imagine how I felt when David moved out, Bruce moved in in his place and a week later she was calling me Bruce....I gave up. Soon I realised she did it with everyone....

Hey greywar,

Not a criticism, just found it to be quite funny given the circumstances...Condi doesn't have a husband, and she meant the President...
I've slipped up like this before, but only like saying "OK, darling" to a workmate (where I normally would say that to my wife.)

It's just a funny slip-up given that she doesn't have a husband, and that it wouldn't be a typical thing she would say everyday (whereas if you said something about your wife, I would imagine it would be because you often talk about her.)
