[Webster Green]

1. What?...No photos?

c'mon...

[IChing]

4. Pickles kissing picture here

[Kurovski]

50. Here's a pic, Webster Green.

[az chela]

2. Since it has been shown on msnbc all day I am sure everyone

has seen it.I just dont get it.Hillary sticks up for w and bill goes on fund raisers with poppa bush and laura???
What am I missing??

[az chela]

6. As if Laura gives a shit about anyone in Africa!!!!

And Bill doesnt need her to help him raise money.I cant stand to see him acting like she is all that

[IChing]

9. It is part of the faith base charity

money is funneled into private agencies not third world governments

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

11. I think you need to step away from the teevee for a bit. n/t

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

3. Raising money for clean drinking water in Africa.

[Redstone]

5. Yes. Thank you for pointng out the positive.

I don't like Pickles much, either,

but I'm not going to rain on Bill's very worthy fund-raising parade just because he has involved someone whose politics I dislike. The Clinton Global Initiative has the potential for doing a lot of good for a lot of very poor people, especially with megabucks Branson contributing all that money, and if Pickles adds something positive to that, I'm all for it.

[Redstone]

8. Whoever does good, is good. At least while they're doing good.

And while they're doing good, I'll not say anything bad about them.

Furthermore, is our Bill still a piece of work or not? The guy can get Pickles involved in a worthy cause...yes, he's still got the goods. He's still The Man.

17. Joe Conason wrote a good article about this in Salon.

40. The more $$$, the better!

I've been giving to: http://www.africanwellfund.org/FAQ.html

for a couple of years now. The idea that people living on this planet don't have any water is pathetic. Anything Clinton can do to change that is fine by me.

He's going to be on Keith Olberman Friday. I know KO isn't on your Christmas card list, but it's always nice to hear what a real president has to say!


:hi:

[az chela]

43. I never miss Keith's show!!!! He is the only one on tv I watch

That is where I saw the pic of the 2 together.I will be watching Keith's show tomorrow to see if he mentions this

[Rosemary2205]

7. It was a great trade

If being seen with the Bushitas will gets millions upon millions of people clean water, some form of healthcare, food, shelter etc then it's certainly worth it.

[az chela]

12. Point taken,I just detest laura so much and adore bill and it is hard to

see him with her.

[Redstone]

15. Well, you know, it's probably kind of hard for him, too, if you know

what I mean, wink wink, nudge nudge...Hey, if he can use whatever tools (pun intended) work for him to accomplish a benefit to the greater good, more power to him.

Redstone

[Redstone]

13. Yes it is, indeed. Gave me that much more respect for our Bill, it did.

[Divine Discontent]

21. I like the "Redstone" in every post

maybe you should put that little trademark in your signature next to it, like they do on myspace. lol..

[Redstone]

29. I'm old. I believe that it's polite to always sign your letters, even if

they are electronic posts in a discussion group.

It's still correspondence, and deserves to be treated as such. May I say it again? I'm old.

Redstone

[Divine Discontent]

59. lol..

you're not that old; you're still able to read these tiny letters on the screen! :)

[Nikki Stone 1]

10. Is it money for a public or privately owned water supply?

WIll the fundraising here eventually create a private water company that will charge the locals obscene rates for water?

[az chela]

14. with bush involved thats what worries me

[Rosemary2205]

18. They are digging town wells

and the pumps are powered by a turning wheel created to look like a kid's merry go round. So while the kids are on it playing they are pumping the water for the whole town.

We aren't talking PLUMBING we are talking clean water.

[alfredo]

25. It is a pump activated by a child's merry go round like what you

see on playgrounds. http://www.playpumps.org/

[JI7]

16. Clinton can raise money and do good without Pickles

it's Pickles and other Republicans like Dole, Bush etc who need Clinton to get their names on something good as they themselves wouldn't be able to get the response taht Clinton himself gets.

i wish someone would ask him how it feels to be used like that.

[az chela]

20. That is exactly what I meant.Laura is such a dunce she

probably doesnt know where Africa is

[Divine Discontent]

23. you don't need to answer this

but I was wondering, are you by chance, left-handed? My brother and one of my best friends are, and they both finish a sentence then start another one right after the period without any spaces.Just like this.

My brother is quite brilliant, so it's not meant as a derogatory question. I was just wondering since 2 people close to me do it, I've never asked anyone else. Maybe it's just coincidence they do that and happen to be left-handed?

[az chela]

37. Lol now that is damn scary cause yes I am

[Divine Discontent]

41. LOL

what does that mean then!!! lol Anyhow. He's a brilliant brother. He's very smart at figuring electronics out and very sensitive and private (non-ego). But, does he blow at writing and typing (this does not mean any other LH people do, I'm speaking about my brother). He will certainly get a kick out of this. I don't know what it means, but I wonder if there's any other LH folks who do this. I'm sure there's a lot that don't, but how bizarre that I saw that in your posts and thought of my brother and friend! It sorta creeps me out too. Wonder why the brain is doing that?

Hey, I'm gay, I don't know why I am, but that's just the way my brain is wired, wish I knew the reason I am the way I am in that capacity.

Thank you for being so honest and non-threatened by the question, friend.

[az chela]

45. You sound like a great person.So ok you be gay and I will keep on being

left handed.I have a lot od friends who are gay and i adore all of them.My nephew talked to me on the computer for a year and finally told me he was gay and I said like I didnt know that ,who cares ,I dont judge anyone and he told me I was the first person he told.God that made me feel special!!!

[Divine Discontent]

48. that is so awesome!

to have you be chosen is a special thing for him (and you), because I told my friend, Amy, who is lesbian in her sexuality, and I was terrorfied, because they all thought of me as this straight-laced Christian they couldn't talk to, but she quickly latched onto me as someone she could trust, and I couldn't NOT be trusting of her. I cried, she laughed and said, "ahhhh, it's gonna be okay, you think it would bother me!"


I'm so glad he told you. There's been many stories of people telling the WRONG people first and either clamming up for life, hiding it, or doing worse.


You get a pat on the back & a hug. :hug:

[az chela]

49. And a hug back at yah!!!

My nephew is the son of my step sister and i have never met either of them as they live in Florida and Raymond my nephew was living with a girl who he told everyone in the family was his fiance and he was terrified when he told me and so scared to tell his mom and told him your mom loves you she wont care.He moved in with his boy friend right after that and they have been together for 6 years.
I always used to tease him and tell him he is not borrowing my red spike heels which always cracked him up.I really love him!!!

[Singular73]

19. Clinton did the same thing in 04

Pissed me off then, more even now.

I usually don't buy into this DNC stuff until I see his performance.

[az chela]

22. Well it just seems degrading to me to see him with the enemy

He sure as hell doesnt need her for anything so she was using him and yes it is for a great cause but he could do so much better on his own.She is such a moron

[IChing]

26. I don't like it right before Mid-terms!!!!!

Get it? Do you any of you Clinton can do no harm people GET IT?

Now, about that outrage from Clinton about the path to 911? How about the path to the mid-terms? How is that playing, Bill?

Stay away from republicans please!!!!!!

[az chela]

27. Thank you for saying it so much better than I did

[IChing]

51. And I included the picture n/t

[alfredo]

31. It was stealing bush's UN thunder. While bush engages in a

spitting contest at the UN, Clinton, the face of the Democratic party to most Americans, is doing real work to relieve suffering.

Look at the stark contrast between what bush is involved in, and what Clinton is involved in.

[filer]

24. I haven't seen the pic.

Does Pickles kiss good? Do pickles kiss well? Think Bill enjoyed it?

[radwriter0555]

28. NEVER trust a man who sucks up to the republicans. EVER. The clinton's

lost me when they BOTH started sucking bush.

They're repubicans in my eyes. They're dead to me and have lost my loyalty forever.

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

36. Yes! BURN them!

BURNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN THEMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!111111111111111111111111

[radwriter0555]

42. I don't know if flames and hellfire are necessary, but it's no differant

than sucking up to hitler.

One must have standards.

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

56. So now Bush Sr. is Hitler, as well?

How many Hitlers are we up to now? Fifteen?

[radwriter0555]

57. "Is".. no, not per se of course. But emulated, yes... absolutely...

hitler set the standard. the bush boys merely grow like mould in his shadow.

[upi402]

62. Agreed, but he still speaks brilliantly

A mind is a terrible thing to sell.

[gumby]

30. Hard to see, isn't it?

However, on TDS, President Clinton explained that no one can even get into the room unless they actually pledge to do something and follow up on it.

So, Pickles had to Pledge To Bill. Get it?

[IChing]

32. I see, it is all about Bill

And not the mid terms

[gumby]

34. You may be correct.

Bushies + Clintons = gives me the creeps.

[az chela]

33. Yah I get it but i dont like it.

Since Bill and poppa Bush spend a lot of weekends together I wonder who is using who

[gumby]

38. It could be your mudane

Ruling Class sorta stuff?

edit: haha, yep, it's a "mud" (instead of mundane) alright.

[SoCalDemGrrl]

35. He's been fawning all over the Bushies & I can't figure it. Someone please

shed some light on this for me. Thankx

[az chela]

39. And for me too!!! I just wonder what their connection is that poppa

Bush spends so much time with Bill and I wonder about the connection to the carlyle group.Sorry but i just had to say that

[gumby]

44. I've wondered if it's the other way around?

Why is Poppy Bush fawning all over Bill?

Surely, Poppy is the Elder here. Why did Poppy take Bill under his umbrella? Especially considering that Baby Bush is now occupying the Oval Office?

This situation is indeed very odd.

[SoCalDemGrrl]

58. That's another way to look at it-but whatever the case STRANGE BEDFELLOWS

[donheld]

46. Maybe Pickles is the new Monica?

:evilgrin::shrug: :evilgrin:

[az chela]

47. Now that is funny!!!!!!!!!!!! Have you taken a good look at pickles??

[donheld]

52. Did you ever get a good look at Monica?

:puke:

[Disturbed]

53. Laura Bush is very popular.

She is liked by most Rethugs and many Moderate Dems. Many on DU view her as a phony and an air head on some sort of tranq. Yea, I view her that way. If she wants to help that is a good thing. It doesn't make Busholini less of an Asshole. Bill Clinton is trying to be above partisan politics and working on projects that are helpful to people that aren't rich. Perhaps his motives are actually genuine. Who really knows?

[donheld]

60. Hoes usually are popular

:evilgrin:

[bklyncowgirl]

54. Hey, she probably isn't getting any from George--so why not.

After all, we know he likes the ladies--Bill that is.

[ThomWV]

55. Seeing If She's Got A Blue Dress

Onc can only hope ....

[philosophie_en_rose]

61. Should he spit in her face?

Act like a baby?

Ignore her?

Bill Clinton cares about change, not personality.

He's not threatened by Mrs. Bush enough to attack her.
