Headline read aloud to me just now.

"Dems want bigger role for Bill Clinton."

What I pictured:

Come on. Can we get a big jelly roll?

Gahrie म्हणाले...: Yet more evidence that Dems need to shut the fuck up when it comes to the war on women meme.; २४/९/१५, ९:४८ AM
Gahrie म्हणाले...: God, could you imagine Carly turning the whole war on women thing around on Hillary?; २४/९/१५, ९:४९ AM
MadisonMan म्हणाले...: Needs a Hillary's in Trouble tag.

Can't do it by herself. Needs a man to help her.

C'mon Bill! Be gallant! Help your wife!; २४/९/१५, ९:५२ AM
Char Char Binks, Esq. म्हणाले...: Jelly roll? That's dirty.; २४/९/१५, ९:५२ AM
Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...: Roll out the rapist.; २४/९/१५, ९:५६ AM
Nonapod म्हणाले...: I'm told people still really like Bill for some reason. And even if Hillary's campaign wasn't experiencing all these recent "troubles", she has the personal charm of an pilonidal cyst.; २४/९/१५, ९:५९ AM
YoungHegelian म्हणाले...: The Dems are finding out that the voters like the concept of Hillary! much more than they like the reality.

I wouldn't be surprised if we see that on the Republican side with Trump as the time comes nearer for voters to actually pull the lever for a candidate.; २४/९/१५, १०:०४ AM
Jason म्हणाले...: Why is Bill Clinton having breakfast with Karla Homolka?; २४/९/१५, १०:०८ AM
garage mahal म्हणाले...: Righties are very angry this morning. Let's all heed the Pope's call for love, forgiveness, and work for the common good.; २४/९/१५, १०:१७ AM
Wilbur म्हणाले...: From americanbluesscene.com:
"A jelly roll is a dessert made of sponge cake that has been spread with jam (or jam mixed with cream) and rolled up into a log. Jelly roll is also one of many evocative culinary euphemisms for female genitals heard in the blues. Bessie Smith bragged that “Nobody in Town Can Bake a Sweet Jelly Roll Like Mine.”

“Jelly” was a popular nickname for bluesmen, especially smooth and flashy types such as pianist Jelly Roll Morton, bassist Jelly Williams, and guitarist Jelly Thompson. Before Morton became “Jelly Roll Morton,” he tried out the nickname “Mr. Jelly Lord.” Both names were rumored to indicate Morton’s predilection for cunnilingus."; २४/९/१५, १०:१७ AM
Big Mike म्हणाले...: The Dems are finding out that the voters like the concept of Hillary! much more than they like the reality.

@YoungHegelian I think the Democrats are finding the concept of Hillary! to be more attractive than the reality. We'd laugh at a woman running for PTA president who made as many gaffes as she has, and it's still early in the campaign.

And I think you're right about Trump and the GOP, too.

As to Bill Clinton, everyone looks back at the economic success of his presidency but his wife is explicitly running against the policies of his that led to that success.; २४/९/१५, १०:१८ AM
madAsHell म्हणाले...: Blue dresses run with fear!!; २४/९/१५, १०:२० AM
PB म्हणाले...: Please let Bill in. Then let's have someone accuse him of sexual assault and let's all watch watch Hillary defend him.

Let Anthony Weiner in, too. I'm sure he has a brilliant mind...; २४/९/१५, १०:२१ AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: So has she told Bill that rape accusers have a right to be believed yet? How'd he take it?; २४/९/१५, १०:४४ AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: Righties are very angry this morning. Let's all heed the Pope's call for love, forgiveness, and work for the common good.

Tell you what garage, you take your orders from the commie in the funny hat who pretends to believe in Sky Beard Man, the rest of us will take our cues from our own critical understanding of the world.; २४/९/१५, १०:४६ AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: Those pictures are first rate though.; २४/९/१५, १०:४७ AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: And garage, don't you have some rape accusers to bash?

Let's see, you let us know that it was discovered during an inquisition into Paula Jones's prior sex life that she is an out and out slut.

And that Juanita Broaddrick, despite having five witnesses, on who discovered her bleeding from the lip right after the rape, and four others, well, all six of them were lying!

It would be interesting to get Hillary's theoretical take on such tactics and findings, wouldn't it?

Nah! Look at the Pope's hat and do as we say! LOL.; २४/९/१५, १०:५० AM
Achilles म्हणाले...: Bill is the walking personification of the progressive double standard. Only a worthless piece of shit could support someone who wagged his finger in our faces and flat out lied. He is a proven liar and has paid settlements to women who accused him of rape. There are several.

He is a rapist. The most popular politician in the democrats party is a rapist.; २४/९/१५, ११:०२ AM
Brando म्हणाले...: Good--let the Dems try and lavish praise on that creep while also explaining why their own political direction is a complete disowning of everything his presidency stood for. How is the fight against inequality and bashing the big money folks going to resonate with the American public when they're trotting out the champion of financial deregulation and toady-boy to the rich? How is the Blacklivesmatter crowd going to reconcile the creep who rushed home to watch a severely retarded black man get executed, just to prove how tough on crime he was?

The morally bankrupt left may be able to square this circle, and believe that Clinton was still a great man while being against everything that man was about (not to mention his one-man war on actual women), but they'll have a hard time selling it outside of the Kool-Aid drinkers.

Of course, there's still the likelihood that the GOP throws this one, so our only hope is one of Hillary's primary challengers.

It's depressing when I'm counting on Joe Biden.; २४/९/१५, ११:०३ AM
Brando म्हणाले...: "He is a rapist. The most popular politician in the democrats party is a rapist."

Oh, he's more than just a rapist. He's also the only president to ever sign an anti-gay rights federal law, the only president to make a political spectacle of executing a severely retarded black man, and the only president to owe his entire fortune to rich people buying access.

Liberals who haven't drunk the Kool Aid must be thrilled with this.; २४/९/१५, ११:०५ AM
Nichevo म्हणाले...: Jason said...
Why is Bill Clinton having breakfast with Karla Homolka?

9/24/15, 10:08 AM

Because he married her, I suppose.; २४/९/१५, ११:११ AM
garage mahal म्हणाले...: The Pope is a commie for preaching the Gospel. Huh. Jesus therefore was a commie.; २४/९/१५, ११:२२ AM
garage mahal म्हणाले...: Hey, don't forget Reagan was a rapist too.; २४/९/१५, ११:२४ AM
Brando म्हणाले...: "The Pope is a commie for preaching the Gospel. Huh. Jesus therefore was a commie."

The Pope isn't a commie--he's a man of religion. I'd look to him for public policy issues around the same time I look to the president for issues of religious doctrine.

And unless you favor collectivist state solutions to economic problems AND heavy handed restrictions on personal behavior, you're going to find something you disagree with the Pope over. Not all the "cafeteria catholics" are on one side of the political spectrum.; २४/९/१५, ११:३६ AM
Brando म्हणाले...: "Hey, don't forget Reagan was a rapist too. "

The only thing Reagan raped was Jimmy Carter's chance to be a two term president.; २४/९/१५, ११:३८ AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: Hey, don't forget Reagan was a rapist too

Well, at least you admit now that Clinton is a rapist. Now the question is which of them wants back into the White House.; २४/९/१५, ११:४८ AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: What is really funny is the level of evidence against Reagan, the word of one woman in one instance, and the level of evidence against Clinton, the word of many women, contemporaneous witnesses etc, and the word of the Reagan accuser is gospel and all of the Clinton accusers, even the ones he paid off, are liars, liars and sluts.; २४/९/१५, ११:५० AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: Of course the *only* time Clinton ever lied was the one time where new evidence became available. What a lousy stroke of luck.; २४/९/१५, ११:५२ AM
Gahrie म्हणाले...: The most pathetic thing about garage?

He thinks he's being devastatingly witty.; २४/९/१५, १२:०० PM
Brando म्हणाले...: "Of course the *only* time Clinton ever lied was the one time where new evidence became available. What a lousy stroke of luck."

Imagine if Monica Lewinsky had not saved the stained dress. The party line on her would have been "another crazy stalker, infatuated with charming Bill! And egged on by GOP haters."

Is this country ready for 4-8 more years of these people?; २४/९/१५, १२:२८ PM
garage mahal म्हणाले...: Not trying to be witty. Reagan was a rapist using the same standards as determining Clinton’s guilt of the same.; २४/९/१५, १२:३० PM
Carnifex म्हणाले...: Garage said--"Righties are very angry this morning. Let's all heed the Pope's call for love, forgiveness, and work for the common good.

As opposed to liberals progs who act like they have raging hemarhoids after "all you can eat burrito night" at "Fuego de Asshole"

As with most mentally deficient, Garbage mistakes the sanctimonious communist spoutings of another illegal as holding some sort of meaning to conservatives. Even as a Catholic, I don't have to listen to the Pope, unless he's talking as the head of the church. Not scolding some ignoramous government body. I'd be a lot more impressed with him if he had said something to Castro, but then we know what happens to people who do that, don't we Garbage? The same thing you want to do with everyone who disagrees with you.; २४/९/१५, १२:३४ PM
Jaq म्हणाले...: No, Reagan was a rapist using a far more strict standard than that applied to Clinton. One accuser talking to an author. Many women talking to federal investigators. See the difference?

I knew you could.

Reagan is long dead, I don't know if he is a rapist or not, being that he is dead and can't give his side of the story, but the story does unfortunately sound plausible in that Mad Men era. Clinton wants back in the White House and his wife is prattling on how victims "have a right to be believed."; २४/९/१५, १२:३५ PM
garage mahal म्हणाले...: One is a Democrat and one is a Republican. That's the standard and you know it.; २४/९/१५, १२:५९ PM
Jaq म्हणाले...: That is your standard garage.

I think one is probably guilty, and the other, accused under penalty of perjury, with multiple corroborating witnesses who also could have found themselves in jail for lying as easily as Scooter Libby, and a history of settlements for similar claims by the accused is almost certainly guilty.; २४/९/१५, १:०७ PM
Jaq म्हणाले...: So many people make pronouncements from their own belief systems as if they were universal truths. It could be the recurrent theme of this blog.

One thing is certain, a Republican candidate with the troubled history of Hillary would have been out on his ear long ago.; २४/९/१५, १:०८ PM
cubanbob म्हणाले...: Jeez the Democrats are going waaayy back to their old playbook. Trotting Bill out looks like George Wallace using his wife to be his stand in for another term. Is that the message the Democrats are running, vote for Hillary so Bill can be in charge again? If Hillary wasn't such a sleazy, corrupt, shrill, shameless and completely unlikable tool I might even feel somewhat sorry for her.

In the meantime America's affable idiot Vice President has presidential aspirations. Who is Slow Joe going to find to be his Biden?; २४/९/१५, १:४८ PM
Brando म्हणाले...: "Trotting Bill out looks like George Wallace using his wife to be his stand in for another term. Is that the message the Democrats are running, vote for Hillary so Bill can be in charge again?"

Sort of a great juxtoposition with her "I'm a feminist" malarkey. News flash--female candidates can make it on their own these days without needing to piggyback off of men. Do we really want this throwback in the White House?

"In the meantime America's affable idiot Vice President has presidential aspirations. Who is Slow Joe going to find to be his Biden?"

I'd like him to run, but each day he delays I'm more certain he won't. It doesn't make sense to wait this long knowing how much money he'd need to raise and ground game to put in place.; २४/९/१५, १:५७ PM
Gahrie म्हणाले...: One is a Democrat and one is a Republican. That's the standard and you know it.

Tell that to Bob Packwood and Richard Nixon.; २४/९/१५, २:०९ PM

1-We are discussing Hillary! here, her major achievement being getting married to and staying with Bill "Rapey" Clinton. So while a woman today can make it to the WH without their man, this woman can't.
2-Joe Biden is an idiot. But a crafty one. He is waiting to get the blessing from The Won. Give him until the first week of November to make his final blessing for Joe or Hillary!.; २४/९/१५, ४:०९ PM
