Lucy Van Pelt, the unforgettable character from the Peanuts gang has charged White House appointee Condoleeza Rice with identity theft. Lucy demands that the White House allow her to share Secretary of State responsibilities with Rice since "the hussy stole my whole persona," said Van Pelt.
Comparison between Condi rice and Lucy Van Pelt
Both Lucy Van Pelt and Condoleeza Rice work hard at being bossy, crabby and selfish. Their smiles and motives are rarely pure. They're both know-it-alls who dispenses advice whether you want it or not--and for Charlie Brown for Lucy and Colin Powell for Condi, there's a charge.
Both women are fussbudgets, in the true sense of the word. Both are a real grouch, with only one or two soft spots, and both of them may be Schroeder for Lucy and George W. Bush for Condi.
When it comes to compliments, Lucy and Condi only like receiving them. If they're paying one--or even smiling-both are probably up to something devious.
The only differences
The only two things that separates Lucy from Condi is that Lucy is loud and yells a lot while Condi speaks her veiled threats softly and carries nuke potential. And Lucy does smile a bit more often than her three dimensional double.
I must also add that I do not think Condi took her shoes!
What I do is kick them in the pants with a diamond buckled shoe!
