... . There is plenty of evidence that women who are "prostituted" (to use the terminology of the report) are also force filmed, so that videos of their rapes can be distributed
commercially (see e.g. this, and this, cf this HHS report, and see generally). Why this category of sexual exploitation doesn't merit mention by the State Department's Report is quite
disturbing. Surely Rice doesn't think that women held captive and forced into prostition are appearing in pornography voluntarily. -Ann Bartow

Bob Novak just said on Fox News that Condoleeza Rice might well be John McCain's running mate. Is
that to provide a hedge against both Obama and Hillary? Or another pundit's attempt to reduce the presidential contest to race and gender? The problem is that too many people will

qualified to be President. In fact, that's a very scary proposition.
