�If you are taught bitterness and anger, then you will believe you are a victim. You will feel aggrieved and the twin brother of aggrievment is entitlement. So now you think you are owed something and you don't have to work for it and now you're on a really bad road to nowhere because there are people who will play to that sense of victim hood, aggreivement and entitlement, and you still won't have a job.� ~ Condaleeza Rice

Heard it said that the worst thing you can do to someone is give them an excuse to fail.

I like the quote too, but caution attributing it to Condi Rice until where and if she said it is learned. To later find out Condi Rice never said it, gives those with an agenda the means to call bullschitt.
I spent ten minutes on it and could not do so.

It is not unlike Abraham Lincoln's quote:
"My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure."

I didn't find a direct quote with attribution but in this interview in http://www.blackcollegian.com on 19 October 2010 it certainly sounds like she agrees. KW: Reverend Florine Thompson asks, �How has the Jim Crow Birmingham experience affected your life? How has it defined who you are today? Did this make you more determined to excel? Did it foster greater drive?�
CR: I believe that Reverend Thompson�s hit on something. My parents, I and a lot of my friends growing up in that community had tremendous drive. There was almost a sense of, �We�ll show them! We�ll show them that we can be twice as good, despite everything.� I think that was something that motivated people who could have instead been consumed by bitterness and fallen into victimhood. I chalk it up to my parents and grandparents and our whole community that we saw the situation as a challenge to be overcome rather than as something that might prevent us from succeeding.
If something on the internet makes you angry the odds are you're being manipulated

I will be using this but until I find out who said it, I'll just attribute it to "Unknown". It's an excellent quote and a very accurate comment no matter who said it first.

I totally agree. Once a liberal finds out the quote was attributed in error, it becomes about that error, not the quote. They are sneaky in that way.

Expand on that, if you feel inclined to do so. she is very much anti 2nd Amendment. She is not on board with Conservative social issues, she is a King hussein supporter now, she loves Russia and thinks highly of Putin, she is against putting force on Iran................ for a start

I agree with Sam. I've heard and read things she has stated that does not set well with me. I was surprised to hear this after she worked for Bush, although Bush was a progressive.
Democrats are the party of SLAVERY. The more people they can grant entitlements to, the more votes they get. People do not have morals anymore and would rather sit on their a$$ and collect a check from the the Govt than go to work and earn a living.
