Craig's Press Conference Was Boring

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Richard Nixon's was much better...

So was Gary Hart's ....

He doesn't seem to have much emotion...

[IDemo]

1. He' s all tapped out

[DemocratSinceBirth]

3. I'd Have A Bit More Emotion

Richard Nixon's was the best ...He started free associating about his late mother and was about to lose it...

Even his 1962 concession speech when he lost the CA gubernatorial race was better...

Very disappointed...

He reminds me of a character out of Dickens who would force you to eat your porridge

[TahitiNut]

10. Yup. Constipated, too.

Perhaps he'll eventually finger it out.

[EST]

22. Eeewhhh~!

:spank:

[TwilightGardener]

2. Did you think he was going to demonstrate his wide stance?

[goclark]

4. ROTFL ~~~~~

[TahitiNut]

5. Well, at least he could have done a tap dance.

:rofl:

[TwilightGardener]

6. You know, he IS the Gene Kelly of the Senate.

7. I Liked The "It's All A Lie And The Idaho Statesman Was Out To Get Me" Shtick

eom

[TwilightGardener]

8. LOL! That's great. I'm sure the Idaho Statesman also prompted

him to pre-emptively declare in 1982 that he didn't like teenage pages either. They're ruthless, I tell ya! Stop dogging this poor, straight man!

[Garbo 2004]

11. which explains why he was arrested in a minnesota airport restroom, of course.

Because the Idaho Statesman was out to get him. :crazy:

[mitchum]

9. He should have brought in some chorus boys to jazz it up

sorry, this is just too easy

[SoCalDem]

14. or waved buh-byeee with jazz hands

[rucky]

12. my favorite public apology:

[DemocratSinceBirth]

13. Clinton's Apology At The Prayer Breakfast Is The Benchmark

Even in his most embarrassing moment he conducted himself like a prince...

[SoCalDem]

15. aaaah hayev sinnnnned

Mine too :rofl:

[Wiregrass Willie]

16. Did you notice he said the Idaho governor had stood behind ?

I suppose that is OK as long as his excellencies toes don't start to tap too vigorously.

We now have another potential problem. That governor -- one C.L. "Butch" Otter -- will now name his replacement. I don't think I'd trust the judgment of any grown man called "Butch". Imagine all of the cammy clad rednecks running around the woods of the Northwest this time of year hoping to kill a deer. Now imagine Butch running around behind them trying to select a Senator ? That's not a pretty or encouraging picture.

18. Rumor is it's the LT GOVERNOR who will take the seat...nt

[Left Is Write]

20. Butch Otter is about as opportunist as they come.

Butch Otter looks out only for the interests of Butch Otter. I wouldn't trust him as far as I could see him.

[NYC Liberal]

17. Nah, I think Budd Dwyer's takes the cake.

After handing out the envelopes, Dwyer opened a brown envelope and withdrew a .357 Magnum revolver, advising those in the crowd, "Please leave the room if this will offend you." Those in attendance cried out to Dwyer, pleading with him to put the gun down ("Budd—don't!" was heard on television). Some tried to approach him. "Stay away, this thing will hurt someone," he warned.<4> Those were his last words. Amid the cry of "Budd, Budd, Budd!" Dwyer put the gun barrel into his mouth and pulled the trigger. He collapsed on the floor, in front of five television news cameras. Dwyer was pronounced dead at the scene at 11:31 AM CDT.

19. That WAS a strange one, wasn't it!!!

E Pluribus Unum on the flag---out of many, one.

He took ONE bullet and made MANY shards of skull out of it....

[TwilightGardener]

21. I remember when that happened, as a kid growing up in PA--

now THAT was a press conference to remember. Ugh.

[Disturbed]

23. Aside from humiliating his wife and children what did he cause?

He was forced to quit because he embarrassed the Rethug Party & another Rethug will take his place unlike Vitter, who could be replaced with a Dem. He still claims that he is not Gay. Maybe he is not. He could be Bi-Sexual. Does that matter to anyone? That he is a hypocrite is not why he was forced to resign. Being a hypocrite is status quo in the Rethug mob.

[TwilightGardener]

24. He pleaded guilty to a crime, and didn't disclose it to the Senate or

to his constituents. That is unethical--he failed the trust of his constituents and his colleagues. He needs to go.
