Re: Nice planet 4: Take 2. Action!

It's a rodeo.

Who's surprised that it's full of 'necks?
 
Re: Nice planet 4: Take 2. Action!

How's this different from making fun of every other president in the media age? Honest question.

Got anything besides tu quoque? I thought not. Besides, your all weather capability to defend "The One" missed the mark here. "He" isn't complaining.

Not much, other than the one physical characteristic that makes the 44th president different from the other 43. If I had to guess, you could probably videos of pretty much the same act involving Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush I, Clinton, and Bush II. Not to mention a few of other leaders as well.

Where did the clown get the mask? Aren't there tens of thousands (maybe hundreds of thousands) of them out there? And won't tens of thousands of Americans wear them come Halloween? Don't forget Nixon.

I don't find it offensive. Now if the crowd had watermelons to chuck at him...

They didn't, did they?


I will say that it's pretty weak in terms of entertainment value though. Simply appealing to the lowest common denominator.

Is that redundant at a rodeo?

You can go through much of American history to find some pretty repugnant things said about every president we've ever had, and most every other office that's higher than the local levels. I remember in reading in college a report of a Georgian gubernatorial race where one candidate beat the other by exclaiming his opponent's daughter was a thespian, playing on the ignorance of the audience and intentionally confusing it with the term lesbian. By all accounts, things used to be dirtier because, in large part, they weren't as widely publicized.

The announcer wanted to know if anyone would like to see Obama run down by a bull. The crowd went wild. He asked it again and again, louder each time, whipping the audience into a lather. One of the clowns ran up and started bobbling the lips on the mask and the people went crazy.

Just so we're clear on what was going on. Probably not as bad as some of the stuff you've heard about Eddie Vedder or Ted Nugent doing during concerts, but it's certainly at least skirting the line of bad taste.

I think the race between Andrew Jackson and John Quincy Adams in the campaign in 1828 was pretty vile. Jackson's wife was called a bigamist (which was true) and Adams was accused of pimping out a girl to a Russian official in exchange for a pool table.

A banana? Really?

One time at Wrigley Field (I was there) a crutch fell out of the left field bleachers during pre-game. Jimmy Piersall picked the thing up and dramatically hobbled around in the outfield for a while, then tossed it back up into the stands. He got a big ovation.

No doubt, but look at where it was. The fact that the crowd ate it up tells you all you need to know.

Red meat for the ignorant rabble.

Let them wallow in their own stupidity.


Imagine living in a place like that... although you're in the Milwaukee suburbs. :eek:

At least your conservatives are educated.

Yeah, but even educated conservatives say stupid things. Just the other day our beloved governor said he wanted to blow up the Portland Press Herald building,

Yet when "The One" stupidly puts 3 Atlantic coast cities in the Gulf of Mexico, you're mute. Go figure.

It's funny that you're constantly railing on people for use of tu quoque all the while basing most of your inane babble around the same type of points.
