I have tremendous respect for Dr. Rice, but she is a diplomat—and as such is good at not giving clear answer. The GOP didn’t give mixed messages regarding women. They were Insulting and Condenscending. Either I am a human being with the same rights as all human being or I am not. The Men of the GOP made it very clear they don’t believe that. So, yeah In this case I think Condi was Condenscending.

Condoleezza Rice: GOP Sent ‘Mixed Messages’ on Immigration and Women’s Issues

WASHINGTON — Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice says the Republican Party must adapt better to rapidly changing demographics in the United States, saying the GOP sent “mixed messages” in the election campaign on immigration and women’s issues.

“On the immigration issue, which turned out to be very important, and some issues about women too, some mixed messages were sent,” she said Friday on CBS’ “This Morning. “And when you send mixed messages through the narrow funnel that is the media spotlight sometimes people hear only one side of that message.”

“Right now for me the most powerful argument is that the changing demographics in the country really necessitates an even bigger tent for the Republican Party,” she said.

This SOS makes it very CLEAR.
