Thousands Die, Condi Buys Pumps

(check out those heels!)

Oh, and now there's this delightful tale from Gawker:

"Just moments ago at the Ferragamo on 5th Avenue, Condoleeza Rice was seen spending several thousands of dollars on some nice, new shoes (we’ve confirmed this, so her new heels will surely get coverage from the WaPo’s Robin Givhan). A fellow shopper, unable to fathom the absurdity of Rice’s timing, went up to the Secretary and reportedly shouted, “How dare you shop for shoes while thousands are dying and homeless!” Never one to have her fashion choices questioned, Rice had security PHYSICALLY REMOVE the woman."

MY FUCKING GOD. It just gets more insane and absurd by the moment. Who the fuck do these people running the government think they are???
