More with Mad Dog...

A few Sunday's back, the New York times Magazine did a one page Q & A with the ex-Secretary of State Madeleine Albright. The interview, such as it is, is a weekly feature conducted by one Deborah Solomon. Ms. Solomon has never met a democrat she didn't love, or anyone from any other party that she didn't despise. This she shows quite clearly week after week.
By way of full disclosure (a subject which eludes the NYT on a regular basis), I have been acquainted with Madame Albright since the late 1970's. I met her when she was an Undersecretary of State for Manila Folders and Scolding. This was in the Carter Administration. In fact, I gave her the widely employed monikker Folder Holder and Mad Dog...and finally, Never Right Albright.
I sat in many a meeting with her and her pal, Warren Christopher. Christopher, in his late nineties even then (or so it seemed) usually slept thru meetings. Thus Mad Dog got to bust everyone's ass...it didn't matter that she wasn't in any way the superior of any one at the table, and in fact was rather junior...what mattered to her was that she would, with the slightest opportunity, pull out her right paw and point a finger at anyone over any subject. It could have been a discussion of the Redskins game the day before and she'd still bust everyone's ass...she hid behind the fact that she was usually the only female in the room...(and I apply the word "female' in it's lightest possible connotation) She was the nasty old third grade teacher we all had nightmares about...and here she was, shuffling papers and making absurd pronouncements like "We have no business meddling in other country's affairs"...amusing now in light of Maddies war in the Balkans during her tenure at Foggy Bottom.

Anyway, Solomon asked her the usual bullshit questions, but the two things that stand out are that Mad Dog can press 400 pounds with her legs...(which is no surprise if you have ever seem them, she makes Hillarys legs look svelte)...and that she doesn't think she'll ever get married again because she "intimidates" men. (her husband dumped her in the 70's)
OK...the 400 pounds is info I could have done without, and the picture of her, full length ,I didn't upload as a favor to readers, it took me a week to brillo my eye balls after seeing it and I wanted to spare you the same fate. But the bullshit about intimidating men cannot go unchallenged.
Mad Dog...you don't intimidate men, you scare the shit outta them!!! The very idea of looking at you first thing in the morning is enough to make a straight man head for DuPont Circle and join a group of Gay men singing show tunes. You are a hairy butt crack that speaks in a mean whinny voice that never leaves room for discussion...even in full pancake makeup you terrify children and dogs. Your security detail never let you near the mounted DC police near Main State for fear of a stampede...NO! You do not intimidate men.
