Jack and Condoleezza

News "US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has said she has no problem with people protesting during her two-day visit to the north-west of England. In Liverpool on Friday evening she was greeted by dozens of anti-war protesters. One was later arrested for breach of the peace in the city centre." -- BBC

Erm ... are Jack and Condi up to something socially? Watching them together on the BBC local news much earlier being interviewed, frankly they looked like a couple and a new couple at that. Not only did they stand with their hands clasped in front of themselves identically but there was also a moment when the interviewer asked them something about the visit being an embarassment and they laughed, in unison, in the same way. They were also doing that thing which couples that don't want to be recognised as couples do which is stand just close enough together to signal their affection but don't touch each other -- and it's really about the way they're not touching. I know it sounds crazy but you just watch...
