32. Poppy to Obama: "Get me a ginger ale, would you boy?"
Obama to Poppy: "Oh, you did NOT just say that!"

Shrub to everyone: "Dudes, I am sooo faced right now."

Clinton to Shrub: "Love me. Please love me."

Carter to himself: "When will this be over, so i can get away from these jerks, and back to building a Habitat home?"

7. I think he looks proud
perhaps that he's not included in their nasty little 'club'.

Jimmy never struck me as someone who needed anyone's friendship, much less validation -- & I admire the heck out of him for it.

Edited on Mon Aug-09-10 09:03 PM by bigwillq
1. You posted a thread about a photo and didn't put the photo into the message line. You just gave us a link. Not a fan when someone does that.

2. I automatically unrec a thread when the OP complains that somebody unrec'ed their precious thread.

:)

22. Just read the thread
Edited on Mon Aug-09-10 09:33 PM by Cherchez la Femme
if you can't discern it, what was said in plain words, and that unrec'ing this isn't because it's my precious thread but tacitly against (as I've said before) Jimmy Carter, I could write a tome and you still couldn't.

Or is Obama, and defending him against we madwo/men who dare criticize this "Fierce Advocate TM* regarding some of his deeds and proclamations.

How do YOU like DOMA? His statement that marriage is not for gays & lesbians but strictly 'for a man and a woman', that 'God is in the mix' (then he best ban marriages by Justice of the Peace!) and this 'Separate but "Equal" THING called a "Civil Union"? How d'ya like HIS justice department calling we gays & lesbians virtual child molesters and other assorted nasty bon mots, in a court of law no less?!
Is that OK with you, you with the rainbow flag?


P.S I've got to apologize for something -- I just noticed your rainbow flag and I Did NOT mean 'fairy' in any bigoted way, just as someone flitting around unrec'ing. A mere figure of speech.
I sincerely apologize if it appeared so.

26. No biggie, on all accounts.
I haven't clicked on the link nor read the other posts in this thread.
I unrec when an OP complains about rec/unrec because I think it's funny that people actually care. Do you really care that someone rec'ed or unrecced your thread on a message board? Don't take it that personally. It's only a message board.

30. no biggie
says bigwillq :wink:

But seriously, it doesn't hurt my feelings... heck, my posts can go way below zero & I wouldn't care, it wouldn't change my self-actualization (at whatever level it's at at that moment : )

unless it's about some dear principle (which I'll defend, yet not this strongly); but when it appears it's about somebody I really admire... hoo boy!

Anyhow, take care! If someday you wish to answer those questions (no arguments, promise!) drop me a line! :hi:

39. I don't need to answer those questions
because they had nothing to do with why I unrec'ed. You went way off the script, basically accusing me of reasons why you think I un'reced that had nothing to do with the real reasons.
I told you why. Those were the real reasons, as foolish and as silly as that may seem. That's all. Nothing more, nothing less. :hi:

on edit: & why not jump to a knee-jerk defense for Clinton?
Just Obama?!

WHAT is this place coming to???!!!11!


Did I ever say a single negative word about anybody in that pic?
No. You don't know WHY I posted it, what I or anybody else who posted was thinking because you didn't bother asking, did you? You read into it exactly what you wanted, what suits your own agenda.

Still, I aver Jimmy stands head and shoulders above all those in the picture; for his truth which he's never been afraid to express, for his concern for the environment, for his literal, hands-on work with the poor and unfortunate, and many other things (and not just donating tax-deductible money).


Too bloody bad you don't like it, blogslut. Still, you have the freedom to post whatever you like
just as I do.

But Oh! The sleep we "fucking retarded" libruls will lose... :cry:


In fact, it's a wonder to me WHY y'all want our votes (and don't forget our money!) at all!

27. LOL I know, & I have drank too much java this eve...
I feel like Robert Downey Jr. in that Ben Stiller 'war' movie --where be plays a black dude? (forget the name right now)-- "I just get excited about my food, that's all."

I get excited --defensive too-- about Jimmy
And of course LGBTQI Civil Rights, which unfortunately, but perhaps inevitably worked their way in :shrug:

Maybe I'll go look at LOLCats for a while, or check out the new movie footage recently found of Nijinsky actually dancing!!

Any road, thanks for the wise advice. :hi:

What a fiery reply.

I like Mr. Carter too. However, I recall being quite disappointed with certain aspects of his presidency: His insistence on the Neutron Bomb, his admiration for nuclear power, his support for a horrid law that passed during his term that forced minor females to notify their parents before they were allowed prescriptions for the pill.

I greatly admire Mr. Carter but I will not deify him as I will not deify Mr. Obama, nor any human being.

As any normal Scorpio :(

Oh, the woe to be born a Scorpio ('I desire') and turn Buddhist ('free yourself from all desire')!
Yeah, I know: :nopity:

:D


Actually I was pretty young when Jimmy was in office, and to be truthful I've only read his books and bio's that were 'on his side' as it were.
I am a true history buff, that and bio's are the only books I read anymore, so I really ought to read up on
well, not *negative*
but more balanced books & articles on his presidency.

I do recall being ticked as hell when he was undercut by Reagan during the hostage conflict (underhandedly dealing with the Iranians 'a la Nixon did with Vietnam), I remember being outraged at the abuse he took in the media and from the citizenry when he *tried* to liberate the hostages (wasn't his fault the military fucked up so bad!) .
AND that most importantly he got the hostages out alive!
And all he's done after his presidency has been gravy.
mmmmmm, gravy!


So I thank you for the important reminder to become more well rounded in my knowledge especially regarding the wo/men I admire most!

a sincere :)



Edit: Grammar *sigh*

It was always the crutch of those who couldn't form an intelligent response.
Insults are more effective when they have at least a morsel of truth to them. Failing to think Obama is the antichrist doesn't make me any of the things on your list.

But shouldn't Shrub be saying something about Clinton's penis too?
And bragging about how much stuff HE took away from the White House when they made the Clinton's give most of the booty, which every other president in living memory has taken with them, back?

The political spectrum is represented a little more accurately that way.
