The New Yorker article about Condi Rice makes her sound…
Hi, reader. I wrote this in 2002 and it's now more than five years old. So it may be very out of date; the world, and I, have changed a lot since I wrote it! I'm keeping this up for historical archive purposes, but the me of today may 100% disagree with what I said then. I rarely edit posts after publishing them, but if I do, I usually leave a note in italics to mark the edit and the reason. If this post is particularly offensive or breaches someone's privacy, please contact me.
The New Yorker article about Condi Rice makes her sound like T'Pol from Enterprise, only not as sexy. (Nicholas Lemann discusses his article in an interview.) My "Certainty! Righteousness!" sirens go off when I hear Lemann describing Rice.
