4. That uncivilized decrepid old fruitloop...
Edited on Mon May-31-04 04:43 PM by HypnoToad
I don't know what the two were saying to each other, but you don't go around shoving people. That's uncivilized, barbaric, immature, and totally typical of the bushistas, go figure...

Of course, this is the most traitorous family that has ever existed. Poppy bush was probably trying to aggravate Clinton into reacting so that he could be arrested and hauled off, I suppose. x(

Clinton's a better man than poppy. Infinitely better one than lil' shrub too. Of course, hat's based only on the circumstantial evidence. I'd love to hear the transcript... especially if poppy was at fault, and I bet he was.

Here's a caption for the image: "Cretin shoves Clinton"

17. Watch the video.
It was just a (gag) playful shove.

18. Agreed, there was nothing friendly about that shove
It looked like a classic "Get out of my face, you worthless insect" and rocked Clinton back on his heels.

It's disgraceful behaviour from one ex president toward another, a lack of civility one could only expect from a corrupt, vulgar piece of Texas trash like Daddy Bush.

That whole family just aint right.

8. although BOTH bushies are laughing, President Clinton doesn't
look very pleased about it...

IMO, the bushies are just RUDE disgusting serial killers, with NO social skills at all....

12. I didn't think that at first saw it and admit I haven't watched it again.
to disect it over and over, but.. I agree the Bushes are rude and disgusting with no social skills.


My guess is they were like nervous little twits in the presence of someone so above them :-) If they were THAT STUPID to intend harm to Clinton in front of photographers and TV then even I would be surprised and that would take a lot.

9. 2 things, that don't look like a smile on Bill's face
.
.
.

And I watched the video over and over -

BC's head takes an awful jerk back on the "friendly" shove -

the camera changes to another view almost immediately, and the people have moved around a bit, - there's some time missing in that video from Fox - -

6. I got the photo.
And, I'd love to know what Poppy is saying to Clenis. I'd have that suit dry cleaned before I'd wear it again.

:)

16. OMG ! those bushies are public PIGS...they all have NO SOCIAL SKILLS

that shove was NO fun thing, and that was NO playing around or joking...it was a nasty and mean...President Clinton should have decked the stupid old KILLER bush....


I guess this is part of the bushies bringing back DIGNITY...shoving people publically right in front of cameras, at a solemn ceremony....

too bad they won't play that clip over and over on TV, so Americans can see what trash they all are...and resident bush* obviously was pleased with the whole thing....

28. That is shocking! Poppy gives Clinton a huge shove
and then both Bushes turn their backs on Clinton! They act like little bullies on the schoolyard. No class. No class whatsoever.

13. It's Elaine from Sienfeld
Clinton just said: We're gonna take back all three branches come November, it will be a landslide. Poppy replied: Get out (but he's smiling cause he knows the world is a worse place with his son at the head of it.)

14. if it were Clinton roughhousing at a war memorial dedication ...
Edited on Mon May-31-04 05:12 PM by Lisa
... the right-wingers would be freaking out right now.

Okay, so Poppy is a veteran (and from a time and subculture where clowning around is seen as preferable to crying in public) -- plus he is probably feeling rather pleased that Junior is presiding over the ceremony, and can't resist "letting it all hang out". But think of what they'd be saying if Clinton had done the shoving!

19. I seriously hope you are all joking here
...sorry, I've been away so if I'm missing some long-running joke here, I'm sorry.

But if any of you are serious about this, you have to be off your rocker.

20. and they all look to be of a similar height
but is not the case I am sure. Clinton is over six feet. Bush the junior is five eleven or shorter. 'we have never been able to determine his real height. No way is he as tall as Clinton, however,I think the George boy was standing on a step in the bleachers that was above Clinton. This is the only way he could have been photographed to look as though he is as tall as Clinton. He is not.

22. I just saw the video, boy was that weird.
And some of you are right, I don't think Clinton found that amusing. It all happened so fast. Does the old guy always greet people like that in front of cameras?

Just think if it was the other way around (Clinton shoving Bush I)? Fox News would play it over and over and over.

24. What Poppy was really doing was restraining his murderous instincts
he was going to go for his throat, but thought the better of it.

Poppy is a very very scary man. He gets my vote for Antichrist, even over his spawn *.

I really hope Jon Stewart picks up on it, because that's almost the only news show I watch so I'll see more than just the screen grabs and vid clips.

But I have no trouble believing that Poppy is capable of serious violence. :scared:
