Condoleezza teams with Chevron
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=AzdKLez7sWk

Former US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has teamed up with the Chevron Oil Corporation and a think tank to reduce poverty worldwide. While Rice has been long affiliated with Chevron, their gameplan seems the most unlikely part of the equation. Chevron wouldn't pay for poisoning 1,400 people by dumping oil in Ecuador, so why would they care about the Third World now? Investigative journalist Greg Palast says this partnership is fooling no one but the American press.

They even had a ship named after her.

3. No, she was with Chevron
The Condoleezza Rice is now the "Altair Voyager." It still belongs to Chevron.

4. She's a toxic oil whore, has been all along and
she certainly doesn't care about worldwide poverty anymore than Chevron does.
