7. If you break a piece of glass, you'll get your wish
Course you have to be a really good shot now that so many windows have been broken from shoe throwing

(Think "It's a Wonderful Life")

8. Perfect!
If it wasn't so right we wouldn't be able to call it to our minds' eyes so easily, could we?
Here's to them both!

9. We should start a campaign to have people send their worn out shoes to throw @ his LIEBARY
People could send their own messages on the shoes or we could write them on there ourselves.

Like how many people have died for his lies, names of soldiers who died at his decision to invade Iraq, or names of the victims who died during Katrina. :-(
Enron and Kenny Boy, Halliburton/KBR thugs, the list could go on and on.

I wonder if the security would be so tight no one could get close enough to it, or they would have us arrested.

13. Oh honey we should just forget that wart on history
He's part of our ugly past and lets leave it at that. Let's not waste any more time, energy and even worn shoes on the bastard. We have to think about the future and how we move forward. Yes he broke the whole world but he's too incompetent to expect to fix it.

This is a job for a real President - our President Obama!

:hi:

15. I'm sorry but I will never be able to forget what the Whole Bush Family
has gotten away with concerning their crimes against humanity and the ways they found to do it.

From Great Grandpa to Grandpa, to Poppy and his idiot sons, they have profiteered causing great harm to people ALL around the world.

I think it is a big mistake to forget our past, especially our recent past. BCCI, Iran Contra, Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Iraq during Reagan's years supplying Saddam with the weapons to gas his own people (which by the way NO one cared about when it was happening, but 20 years later it was used as a tool to justify taking out Saddam) Iraq 20 years later under the current Bush (invaded under false pretenses. The looting of our treasury and his cronyism with corporate America. The harm he has done will take years to undo.

I never expected him to fix anything, because that's the way he has always operated. He always been good at making BIG messes and leaving it for someone else to fix. I guess you could say that IS the one thing that he is "competent at" just one big Fuck Up.

The shoe thing was mostly a joke but I do think it would be funny, as it would be a constant reminder that he ducked out of another mess. Because that IS another thing he has been good at doing ducking responsibilities.:rofl:


I do however believe that President Obama will bring about our National Pride here at home and around the World. President Obama will be a GREAT Leader and he has already started showing that with his bi-partisan policies. I don't necessarily agree with it, but it will at least show ALL Americans that he is trying to work with everyone. Of course the rethuglicons will throw up Road Blocks (that's just what they do) however, it will cost them dearly if they continue down that path, because the American people will understand this time around.

I hope you have plans for tonight. I'm getting to go to the TCDP Inaugural Ball. It IS time to CELEBRATE :woohoo:

:hi:
