Lately, we've been bombarded by images of the US Secretary of State as the Great Diplomat, walking onto the tarmac of a foreign country as if she were a rock star, an intellectual giant, and the embodiment of the American dream all rolled into one. Meanwhile, she has spoken out against affirmative action, lied to the 9/11 Commission, defended a disastrous war in Iraq, and has been the mouthpiece for an administration even at it's most shameful moments at home: as thousands of Americans were left for dead in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Who is she, and why does she hold such a special place in the national imagination? How does the Right use her to front racist and sexist policies in the US and abroad? Why does the Left repress criticisms and thorough evaluations of one the most influential people in Washington? Here is a compendium of critiques and think pieces, images and monologues that take on Dr Condoleezza Rice.
