I just had a freeper insult me on a mesage board over my Clinton quote!
I was on another message board.I have a quote on there that reads "There is nothing bad about America that can not be cured by what is good about America"

Anyway,the lady ignored my post(which was not politcal by the way)& insulted me over my quotes on the bottom of my reply page.Heres what she wrote:

"Romantico, I am deeply offended by your vulgar quote from disgraced President, Bill Clinton.There was nothing good about America when he was in office.Besides,if I recall he stole that quote to use in one of his speeches.You might want to think about removing such filth from your profile.I'm sure I won't be the only one who posts about this.Good day."

I haven't responded yet.I am in shock.NEVER has anyone replied to a quote of mine on ANY message board.Right below my Clinton quote I have a Truman quote that reads,'If you want to live like a Republican vote for the Democrat'.She didn't seem to mind that one.Could it be Reagan fever?

1. It's sex
She finds Clinton a disgrace because he had sex while he was President. She probably never thought of Truman as having sex.

22. Bingo! If she wants One-Party Rule tell her to go to Commie China
and take her Bushevik Freinds with her!

HERE'S ONE YOU HAVE MY PERMISSION TO USE:

"Hell, when you and your Bushevik Friends gets to Commie China, all you'll have to do is change a bit of basic economic philosophy and switch your unthinking Brownshirt's Loyalty to "Mao and Ziang" instead of "Raygun and Bush". Otherwise, your persona of unquestioning obedience and bootlicking of Tyrants will be welcomed in the Commie China which you are trying to turn our beauitiful country into!"

14. "Why do you hate what is good about America so much?"
"in what ways is what is good about America vulgar?"

that would be my questions.

18. quote
"There was nothing good about America when he <Pres.Clinton> was in office." Nothing? Nothing at all? Nothing in eight years? Why did you stick around?

As much as I dislike bush* I still think there is plenty of good in America worth saving if we can.

27. Well, heres what I just did.
I added more Clinton quotes & took out my Truman quote.Plus I addeded one more quotes to finish the rest of the other Clitnon quotes off:

"Some people just have no life.They have to attack a poster on a message board because he liked 8 years of Peace & prosperity vs.an unelected frat boy who can't even speak english.Clinton's popularity both here & across the world speaks volumes to his critics.What an empty life one must have to cry victory in their simple hate filled mind on a message board." -Romatico June 2004-

What do you think?

31. Heh, heh
Like it. Your correspondent may also be rudely surprised to find out that her blind hero-worship of Chimpy McCokespoon isn't quite as popular as she surmises.

But let her find out for herself.

24. I always said,
"I don't give a damn WHAT Clinton screws, as long as it's not the UNITRD STATES!" And remember: when Clinton lied, NOBODY DIED! The Chimp in charge can't say that without his patented SMIRK!

25. I like the blue dress and house fell on your sister ones
I cannot top those.

I did want to highlight this diddy --

"Besides,if I recall he stole that quote to use in one of his speeches"

Perhaps the woman needs to appreciate just how many "quotes" are used in speeches by presidents.

For example, one of Reagan's most famous speeches -- on the Challenger astronaut deaths: We will never forget them, nor the last time we saw them, this morning, as they prepared for their journey and waved good-bye and "slipped the surly bonds of earth" to "touch the face of God."

The lines "slipped the surly bonds of earth" and "touch the face of God" are from a poem High Flight which was written by an American airman, who had volunteered to fly with the Canadian Air Force prior to America's entry into World War II. Here is a link to the poem: http://mullings.com/high_flight.htm

"Good Day" - I believe she stole that from....Mary Poppins!

28. Hang back
for short time & see how the other posters respond. :) if no one on that board has said anything about your quote before, chances are they'll pounce on her for an OT post &/or not taking that up in a private email. that way, you don't come off as being the "bad guy" for beating up on her (not that she doesn't richly deserve it).

if no one responds, you might want to remind ms. nazi-wannabe that there is still freedom of expression in this country & if she's offended by your quote, well, tough cookies.

29. You use that term "lady" too loosely..
there's another word for her, and it doesn't start with "L".

That person is just a nut. Vulgar quote? Vulgar quote? I don't get it.

Forgive the hysterial asshole. She's just mourning for Saint Reagan.. and does not want to be reminded of a truly successful president.

34. Tell her there was nothing good about America when Eisenhower was in
office.

I did that once to a right-winger. Surprised the hell out of her. She was going on and on about Clinton being a "sleaze." I asked her what about Eisenhower being a sleaze? I said, "EVERYONE KNEW he was cheating on his wife with his ambulance driver. There's a book about it! Do you think he was a sleaze?" She of course had nothing to say, but had to acknowledge the logic.
