Freepers get their panties in a wad over "Cowboy Clinton".
Your Monday morning laugh...

Cowboy Clinton
The Clinton Museum Store in Little Rock keeps cranking out enough Clinton stuff to rival a rock group or NASCAR driver. What's new? Cowboy Bill. The tie-in comes from an exhibit at the William J. Clinton Library and Museum that features silver screen cowboy heroes. No Brokeback Mountain here: It's about John Wayne and other western stars. Connie Fails, the souvenir store's director, tells our Suzi Parker that she created a T-shirt featuring Clinton pictured in a cowboy hat and a twist on the Willie Nelson lyrics: "Some Mamas Let Their Sons Grow Up to Be Cowboys." Shoppers can also snag "Cowboy Bill" silver sheriff badges. (Don't tell Kenneth Starr.) Another related hot seller: A rare blue ceramic Frankoma pottery boot with the presidential seal on it. "About 50 of these were stored away in Oklahoma at the company," says Fails. "They were made for some president but we don't know which one." Technically a former president can't be associated with the presidential seal but Fails says these are considered vintage which makes it OK.

"so bill the stain clinton is trying to mooch off the positive image of cowboys by pretending to be a reagan or a gwbush in the cowboy department.

Somehow I (sarcasm on) doubt very much Bill Clinton would have his puny manicured hands anywhere near dirt or ranch work or on a horse that did not take 25 cents per ride."

1. Wealthy New England Carpetbagger Bush wear a cowboy hat & a codpiece
and his supporters wet their pants.

Clinton, a poor boy from Arkansas, dons a cowboy hat and these plebes call him rich and "manicured".

10. It's well documented that Bush is afraid of horses
And apparently horses don't care for him too much either.

Which is really strange to me. I can see being afraid of snakes or even spiders...but horses, for crying out loud? Bush must really be one fucked-up guy.

12. A "cowboy" afraid of a horse?
:crazy: I bet you any amount of money, in shrubbie's mind, he thinks "I like cows, so I'm a cowboy. If I liked horses, then I'd be a horseboy."

He really think he is that stupid. :scared:

13. It's been my experience that
Horses and other animals, such as the police dog W encountered a couple of weeks ago, are wonderful judges of character.

I have never known a horse or a dog to just not like someone for no reason.

7. Reagan was a midwesterner, not a cowboy.
He just played one on TV. Bush is even less of a cowboy than the Gip, buying his toy ranch specifically for the 2000 election.

8. Remember that video of Will Ferrell as Bush?
The one where he was trying to film a political ad in front of a field with horses and he was so nervous? That made me laugh myself silly.

:rofl:
