So Clinton was out of control with 'anger issues'? What about Il Dunce?
The RW echo chamber is all atwitter over Clinton's recent smackdown of Mike Wallace's ignorant son on Roger Ailes' propaganda channel.

They say The Big Dawg was out of control with his anger and threw a fit.

Well ....... I'll report and you can decide.

Busholini went head to head with Matt Lauer. Here's the YouTube clip of that:



Now here's The Big Dawg up against Roger Ailes' bitch:





Its really no contest, is it? One is an American President acting presidential and smart and possessed of the facts. The other is a talkking monkey in a man suit flinging his own feces at those watching him through the bars of his cage.

1. Poking your finger
into Matt Lauer's chest and looking pissed off is considered firm conviction when Bush does it.
Poking your finger at Chris Wallace and looking pissed off is considered a "meltdown" when Clinton does it.

Ah, the liberal media strikes again.

2. The thing these neanderthals forget is that, with due respect
to the fascistas, Bill Clinton really is the smartest guy in the room.

3. I wish every single Democrat would act just as angry and.....
out of control. Can you imagine the look on the collective faces of the Republicans and their enablers?
It would be like a new kind of strike or walk out--an outrage revolt.

4. I can't for the life of me understand why they haven't done that en masse.
We might not be in this position now if they had "acted out" in 2000.

5. Hey, for right-wing reactionaries, the angrier the response, the "righter"
Edited on Tue Sep-26-06 12:58 PM by pat_k
. . the person.

Going after people is what reactionaries are all about. The louder someone yells, the righter they must be. The more personal the attack, the more it resonates.

We do not need to become a torch-bearing mob, but leaders in the Democratic Party need to learn that it is immoral and cowardly to simply "make sure it doesn't happen next time," "move on from here," or attempt to "fix the system." If we do not hold wrong-doers to account, we will continue to pay a higher and higher price for our failure (http://www.consortiumnews.com/2006/051006.html">Hey, Democrats, Truth Matters).

Systems are driven by individual action. Reactionaries may go overboard when it comes to accusation and punishment, but it is time the folks in the center figured out that its a moral imperative to hold individuals to account for crimes against our constitutional democracy.

Our leaders need to learn that outrage is precisely what is called for when you confront outrageous conduct.

7. President chimp throws unprovoked hissy fits...
on a daily basis. Clinton's reaction was righteous indignation.

8. Looks like they've never seen their boy Rummy at a press conference



Snarly and obnoxious. Demeaning and sarcastic. If they want attitude, they need to check out Rummy when he's on a roll.
