"Socks is the window to the falseness of the Clintons"
Those words were uttered by mental lightweight and low grade, low rated hack, the Carlson scion, as he introduced the daily Clinton hit piece on his low rated teevee snooze fest.

The utterance of those words was accompanied by file footage of Socks grazing on the end of a long leash at Camp David.

And this matters how, exactly?

Following that piece, this boy genius got into the Shirley McLaine thing about Dennis Kucinich and flying saucers. This bit of palaver was accompanied by a graphic with McLaine's quote superimposed on Dennis' face.

And this matters how, exactly?

Its funny. I see so many **clearly** RIGHT WING talking points grow into left wing outrage tsunamis. And they all start with people like Drudge ..... or Billo ....... or the Carlson family's embarrassment of a ne'er do well scion.

And this matters how, exactly?

Because it divides people with more in common than not ..... all to the RIGHT WING's benefit.

1. You're sure those attacks are from the left?
They well may be. They likely are. But are you SURE?

4. One can never be sure ...... but they start on the right ..... and are fanned into .......
..... mini conflagrations by those who *say* they're on the left.

10. remember that GHWB promised to give hillary hell if she ran for the presidency of the U.S.
Tucker, Tweety, et al ... are the mouthpieces for poppy's promised hell... and i suppose the flames of hell will get even hotter as the nomination approaches, and even hotter if she happens to be the nominee.

11. That doesn't explain the equally kooky DK smear he did.
Edited on Tue Oct-23-07 06:09 PM by Husb2Sparkly
He regularly smears Dems ...... and not just HRC.

I know that's his job, but he does it based on silly shit like these two examples. And then our side gets all ina lather over it and the circular firing squad is then mustered.

19. you might say that , "there is a method to his madness."
he knows how to push our emotional buttons.

we are still trying to figure how to a) stop the wave of emotionality which flows from our side every time he pushes our buttons, and b) how to push at least one of their emotional buttons so that they will be faced with some big emotional uproard powerful enough to tumble them.

We have, so far, failed on both counts.

2. I'm happy to say I have no idea what you're talking about
I don't watch morons, and if I happen to hear about them, I promptly forget. :evilgrin:

3. Clinton put his cat on a tether, and that makes him "false"?
Maybe he just doesn't want his cat to run away and get eaten by a coyote... :shrug:

7. The central point was stated in the OP .....
... and is repeated here: "Its funny. I see so many **clearly** RIGHT WING talking points grow into left wing outrage tsunamis."

Further to that point, it seems that much of the ammunition used to get our side squabbling internally starts its ugly life on the *right*.

My OP contained one example of a slam at HRC and one example of a slam at DK.

8. "low rated teevee snooze fest"
The most appropriate description evah! for Tucker's show.

As for SocksGate, there's no doubt this will finally bring those Clintons down!

:sarcasm:

9. Tucker has deep seated female issues. He has said
"When I see Mrs Clinton speak, I instinctively cross my legs"

Really, what else is there to know about his attitude?

13. Four simple words can end 90% of their bullshit:
"Yeah and so what?"

14. I agree. To me, you can tell ALL about a person on how they treat their pets.
It IS a window into their character and their soul.

When you take adopt an animal - its for life - unless there are HUGE financial or health reasons why you can no longer keep them then it is your responsibility to be sure that it has a chance for a very good life with another responsible pet owner.

Neither of those reasons is applicable here.

15. Socks was Chelsea's cat and she left to go to college
And Sock hated Buddy The White House dog and loved Bill Clinton's Personal Secratrey. So when they left the White House, Socks was give a home with his favourite person in The White House and no dog.
The Clinton's did nothing wrong here and this is just desperate smearing of their characters.
Want to know about the soul of the Clinton's? Look at how Chelsea turned out, they did something right.

16. Socks is a window
Rudy's three or four marriages tell us nothing about him; nor does his penchant for hiring and buddying-up to certified creeps, cranks and convicts. I'm glad someone like Tucker Carlson has a national television platform to explain these things to us, because otherwise I'd think there was something wrong with every last Republican running for president.

17. I don't think socks or flying saucers ever became left wing tsunamis
I'm not saying your premise is wrong but your examples seem fairly trivial.
