And that video of bush when he dropped Barney made me cringe. I used to be a dog bather and never dropped one of the many dogs I handled.

(1,188 posts)I say I can only think of one thing. That time he dropped Barney, he did pick him up.

(81,304 posts)bush was probably drunk or hung over or on something. I never put it past him. And for all the slurred speech I had to suffer through whenever he tried to put two or more sentences together at one sitting, you could not convince me that he wasn't still drinking. Either that or he wasn't drinking anymore by then, but was manifesting the brain damage it caused.
freshwest
(53,661 posts)I guessed his drinking or cocaine days did it, or maybe a damned good whack upside the head. He seemed incompetent and overwhelmed.
I read that Jeb was the Bush golden boy the family wanted to be Prez. But little Georgie had the name, so he had to run.
I felt he didn't want the job anyway. He wasn't up to it, so he was willing to cheat and had the family cabal behind to ensure the win.
Nasty times all around.

calimary
(81,304 posts)She was getting on in age and, at her age was un-hireable. Not quite old enough yet to collect Social Security. She'd just gotten laid off. She was utterly pathetic, sitting there being interviewed on camera. She was overweight, and wasn't in the best of health, either. So of course, she also lost her health insurance when she lost her job. And even with all of that, she actually said she couldn't possibly vote for any candidate who wasn't wearing a flag pin.
GO FRICKIN' FIGURE!!!!!!!!!!!!
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)I know a guy that is pretty liberal (or libertarian?) on social issues - pro choice, okay with gay marriage, etc - and has a low paying job with mediocre benefits and some severe long-term health issues. You'd think he'd be voting Democratic most every time? No - he hates Democrats with a passion because he's afraid Democrats are coming for his guns. Other than being a gun nut, the guy is tailor made to vote Democratic.
(he doesn't like Bush, either, but at least he wasn't coming for his guns...)

BuddhaGirl
(3,608 posts)Found this on Wikipedia:
"In spring 2011, Zakarian filed for personal bankruptcy in response to a class action lawsuit against him by his former employees. The employees allege he engaged in repeated and gross violation of labor laws and are suing for back pay. Two of Zakarian's partners in the related restaurant support the workers claims, but Zakarian's publicist denied the claims."
And:
"Zakarian is a "long-time subscriber to Reason and a self-described libertarian."

(3,544 posts)I don't recall the media getting all hyped up over Bush and Regan for the same things. Yet here is more proof that the GOP (and the media) absolutely hate this current president to the core of their rotten racist souls. Just wait. They'll go total apeshit when a woman wins the presidency.
How sickening it must be to be a far right racist and womanizer.

Starting with wearing the entire "Flyguy" ensemble from "I'm Gonna Get You Sucka!"
Goldfish shoes and all!
I am pretty certain that the entire right wing is similar to the Leslie Nielsen character in the utterly forgettable 80's flick "Soul Man"....they all already have this image of President Obama in their minds and won't EVER change:

If the rightwing howler monkeys knew stuff from Shinola about the military, they'd know it's perfectly legal and proper to carry something in the left hand or arm and salute.

(62,325 posts)Those photos nearly killed Bush's most avid supporters. In the end their only solution was to try to hide them. It just didn't compute for them, their HERO COWBOY kissing the 'enemy' and a 'male enemy' at that. I was bad back then and posted them constantly asking them if they finally got the message, THEY HAD BEEN SCAMMED!
They so completely bought into the whole 'terrorists from ME' propaganda which to them ANYONE who live there was the enemy. And they looked to Bush as their BRAVE leader supported by no less than GOD HIMSELF, for guidance. They PRAYED for him every day.
And then, they saw him with their own eyes, cavorting with the enemy, KISSING and HUGGING those 'ragheads'.
I doubt many of them have recovered from the shock! Lol!

"He added: "I am sick and tired of the race hustlers out there playing the Starbucks gift card because Obama wasn't even drinking coffee."
Colbert revealed Obama was more likely drinking chai tea.
"I bet that tea had a sprig of arugula in there and was certified halal by an undocumented gay Muslim barista," he said."

Latest Right-wing-lunatic Smear About Obama: Dijongate
snip//
If the Republican Party wants to go on a listening tour to figure out what they need to do, they may start turning off their radios and televisions too. Every day we post about the absurdity that is the Republican Party and every day a completely new mind-numbing smear comes out.
I understand what they are doing. They feel if they keep chipping away at President Obama with nonsensical complaints, it will slowly erode his popularity. The problem they face is that they look like loons doing it, and all the polls point to the same conclusion. It's good for ratings on FOX, because those uber-loons are watching the little horde of Republican lunatics in action with a fervent glee, but mainstream America is laughing at them.
