Shoe's on the other foot now

In Reply to: Quotes from when Clinton committed troops to Bosnia - gt
I didn't support Clinton's foray into Bosnia. A lot of the quotes from Tom DeLay have good points, much as I hate to admit it. So why can't he see that now? And why can't Bush? Maybe because they never had any motivation to help anybody in the first place, but rather to dominate the world and get more control over what oil is left!

i agree, but if the shoe was on the other foot
and anytime you posted something you got called wretch, a@@, snake, or the other names, and then it was to everything you were posting I think you'd get tired of it too. All I wanted was the insults to stop. Now it looks like I have to change my moniker to get it to stop.
Clean your shoe, why don't you.
Because obviously, that smell is following you around.
There is no Air America scandal and certainly nothing you can(reasonably, although we know you don't take that seriously)blame Rachel Maddow for. Air America's former CEO made some bad decisions (gee, that never happens does it?) because he had connections with the charity in question and the fledgling AA was in trouble. However, that was HIS mistake and he is no longer at AA (yes, some people actually get rid of poor performers, unlike our WH). AA didn't do anything wrong and there are no charges against them because there's nothing to prosecute. DESPITE that they have acknowledged that they feel badly about the entire affair and have offered to repay the money even though they are not obligated to do so. I'd say that's far from scandalous - and very much unlike anything you'd see a NeoCon do - they don't pay back ANYBODY even when it IS their fault. Why, here you have the Republican governor of Kentucky under investigation and he declares he's going to use the power of the office to PARDON HIMSELF. Nice schtick if you can get it, huh.
And when are you going to give up and admit defeat anyway? Still waiting for Karl Rove to flood the airwaves with his particularly sour mutilation of the truth? You can't win this one no matter how many radio stations you try to smear. You're all suddenly looking pretty sallow standing there in the spotlight all by yourselves. Face it - Bush will never live this down. His appointments will never live this down. They did wrong, the whole world has seen it. Even Shepard Smith and Geraldo have seen it. Even Newt Gingrich has seen it! Incredible huh? It hardly matters what they do now. The damage is done. Americans who actually care will save as many as they can from here on out and the news is only going to get worse for you and your conning stormtroopers. A lot of those people will survive. A lot of them will talk. It's not only Democrats who are enraged over this egregiously horrible bumbling. If I were you I'd just slink off into the shadows and not make it any worse for myself. For once Democrats and real Republicans are united against this deplorably out of touch and elitist bunch of Washington money-suckers. Don't blame us for the political mileage - that's just a sad side effect. We'll take it but we'd rather thousands more people had lived instead of having their corpses nibbled by rats in the filthy flooded streets. We owe them. So just stand down - this one is NOT SPINNABLE.
I meant... NOW shoe...nm
But I know you'll stay because you need us to validate yourself. You're not at your best unless you are in your leftist/lib basher mode, eh. Keep it up, and people like you will expose the right brotherhood for what it's worth.
well.....................if the shoe fits...
you know the old saying. the majority rules and Obama will win.
Sorry to offend you, but if the shoe fits...
As I said, I am a normal woman, have three children, six grandchildren, and a husband who is a blue-collar worker. As for stupid, this VP choice of McCain's is stupid. Seriously, she has no credentials for being the leader of the USA in a time of war, in a time of major economical challenges. Governor of Alaska?....mayor of a small town?....that's it?.... Why aren't you VP? I am sure you have as much knowledge as she does. She said she doesn't know anything about Iraq, although her son is going there, and said she doesn't know what a VP does.... Honestly, if I was governor of any state, I would not even ask "what does a VP do?" I would go find out for myself. Any drive to do her own investigating? Any curiosity? Do you seriously think she could be President of the US if something happens to John McCain? America has far too many problems to gamble on a way too outside chance.
As for Obama's arrogance, that is something you heard and repeat like a mina bird. Guess what? There is arrogance in every one of these politicians, otherwise they would not be in the public eye. I am constantly amazed at the stupidity of the American people, yes I am, and if that is arrogance, so be it.
As for Obama being arrogant, that is something YOU heard and repeat.
If the shoe fits...wear it!
There are an abundance of right-wing links posted on this forum with lies, smear tactics, shameful racist comments, and outrageous claims regarding Barack Obama. I have yet to see any of these types of links posted by liberals regarding John McCain. This has nothing to do with bias and has everything to do with fact!
I guess if the shoe fits
My post was meant to challenge the assumption that all midwesterners fit into the coastal stereotypes created for them as enumerated. However, if you choose to perpetuate that stereotype by taking my posting as an attack, thereby almost reinforcing the illiterate part (being literate is more than just reading words- it's understanding them, too), then, by all means, make us midwesterners proud.
Well, maybe the little bald guy whacking his shoe on the table was right....
"You will be taken over from the inside with no one firing a shot."
So you think it is more helpful to watch shoe being thrown
at our current leader than to hear about the new administration's cabinet members?
Some one stop this woman from shoe shopping and spinning...sm
First of all, other than the obvious damage control (spinning) Ms. Rice is doing, what are the comparisons of Iraqi War to America's Civil War?? Second, isn't her not my department response to Katrina just the biggest taletell sign that it is time for her and her boss to go?
--------------
Condi uses Civil War to slap Iraq critics
Secretary of State Rice compared the Iraq war with the American Civil War, telling a magazine that slavery might have lasted longer in this country if the North had decided to end the fight early.
I'm sure there are people who thought it was a mistake to fight the Civil War to its end and to insist that the emancipation of slaves would hold, Rice said in the new issue of Essence magazine.
I know there were people who said, 'Why don't we get out of this now, take a peace with the South, but leave the South with slaves?' Rice said.
Rice also bristled at the notion that the Bush administration's slow response last year in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina was because of the race of the majority of the victims.
I resented the notion that the President of the United States, this President of the United States, would somehow decide to let people suffer because they were black, Rice told the magazine.
I found that to be the most corrosive and outrageous claim that anybody could have made, and it was wholly and totally irresponsible.
Asked if she felt personally accountable, Rice said, The government did its best. People aren't perfect, and this response was not perfect. You know, I do foreign policy, I don't run Homeland Security. I don't run FEMA. I do foreign policy. She added, I did what I could to coordinate the international response.

Election my foot.
You still believe the last 2 elections were legit? Oh of course you do. You still can't get it through your thick head that Saddam had nothing to do with 911. Go back to your board. You people cannot stay off ours - why is that? Scared?

That was sooooo funny! - you made my day
For goodness sakes...he's already put his foot
And I suppose you're okay with the comment he let slip out when he said "spread the wealth" when asked by a plumber how he was supposed to keep his business open with higher taxes, that he wouldn't be able to employ more people and would end up losing is business. Obama did not care at all. He very callously smirked and opening admitted he needs to "spread the wealth".
You do understand that concept? It means NO TAX CUTS FOR YOU but you will be seeing large sums of money being used to put more and more on the welfare payroll. He has disguised these at "tax credits". Well, got a news flash for ya. YOU won't be getting a tax credit but someone you know might be getting a paycheck for doing nothing at all.
Undecided, my foot. Anyone who agreed with that 98% .....
would not vote for McCain if his/her life depended on it. You were undecided until you took that test? LOL. Pull the other leg now. :-)
Shame on YOU. 'Research' ...my foot.
Yes, 9-11 could have been prevented, if Bill Clinton could have kept his eyes, hands and other parts of anatomy off interns long enough to take bin Laden when the Sudan offered him to us.
I agree with kendra...you should on the front line if we are ever attacked on our own soil. But I would look for you with tail tucked between your legs running for Canada.
Sorry....as I remove my rather large foot from my mouth...
at least I will admit when I am wrong...yep, I took the post the wrong way. Soooo sorry.
Yes, the idea of a conservative woman who is a feminist, who is strong and able to meld career and family and do it well scares them...she is a feminist, but with conservative values...go figure. The hard core feminists are now being taken to task by the moderates saying "Hey wait...either you want women to advance or you don't...you want women treated equally or you don't...this is not about liberal or conservative women, it is about women..."
The horse is out of the barn now and I don't think they can put it back in.
Yeah, and rub your luck rabbit foot...sm
While you're at it! It'll do JUST much good. Silly people. Let go of your ancient superstitions and move into reality with the rest of us.
And again, they fall silent.....stuck her foot in

Christian my foot......true Christians do not

Are you gonna foot the bill? The welfare?
You don't want to pay more taxes remember? You're for McCain right? You don't want Obama's programs or spending, but you want the child protected. Are you gonna clothe and feed that child? If not, then who????????????
AHAAAAAA HAAAAA - Foot channel - my bad
Gosh that was way too funny. I'm about peeing my pants laughing.
Good to have a cat fight again. Waaarrrrr (or as my cat says when she sees other cats - hsssss.....hssssss....hssssss)
Knew it would happen. Bipartisan, my foot.
McCain's amendment that would only cost $450B and provide almost everything for the people failed. Ayes-40, Nayes 57. That's how much the Naysayers care for the people of this country. 
I'd join the grassroots movement but I don't even have a car that would get me to D. C.
Oh, please, give me a break....that man sticks his foot
nm
And exhibiting daily that they would gnaw off their hind foot sm
before protecting Americans here and the troops who fight to keep us safe. Blinded, absolutely blinded by hatred. 
that's just joe, yeah right...open mouth, insert foot, every day
Good one. Open mouth, insert foot.

Biden sticks his foot in his mouth all the time...(sm)
But there's a difference between gaffes and a lack of knowledge, much less a willingness to pass FAIR legislation.
Biden sponsored the violence against women act and has had to fight republicans to extend the life of that bill every time it comes up. He is a very strong advocate for women. Check out his voting record.
I'm waiting for racist wife Michelle to stick her foot in her mouth....
Yup, Biden has a hard time speaking without putting a foot in his mouth.
He's like that crazy family member everyone has that they always try to keep under wraps.
