Great Satan In a Red Dress - CORRECTION, see below

Hatched by Dafydd

Top American diplomat Condoleezza Rice managed to terminally offend Iran's foreign minister, Manouchehr Mottaki, at a state dinner in Egypt, by wearing Western clothing: to wit, one red dress. He fled the room, shrieking that she was "dressed too revealingly," as AP puts it.

Correction: I misunderstood the article; the chick in the red chic was not Condoleeza Rice but some violinist instead. That makes this next comment a little more understandable...

"I don't know which woman he was afraid of, the woman in the red dress or the secretary of state," State Department spokesman Sean McCormack said Friday.

Rice and Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki met earlier at a lunch Thursday but exchanged only pleasantries. Neither appeared ready to make the first move for a real meeting.

"You can ask him why he didn't make an effort," Rice told reporters Friday. "I'm not given to chasing anyone."

...And it renders this wisecrack of ours completely meaningless:

If Squeaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Haight-Ashbury, 95%) were present, would she have offered to let Condi borrow her chador? Nah... the diminutive robes of the squeaker couldn't possibly fit the statuesque secretary of state.

...But still fun; at least, we think so! (Commenter Nomennovum also noticed this and deserves a hat tip here.)

Actually, it was the violinist who was wearing the red dress, but the same principle applies. By the looks of the photo, Ms. Rice was wearing a black dress. Who knows? Maybe the violinist was a cross-dresser. That could be offensive to many people.

No ... wait ... that couldn't be it, because then everthing would be copacetic under Sharia. What, with men dressing whatever way they damn well please and all. Nope, it must have been your garden variety Western harlot "what killed the beast." Or scared it at least.
