EDWARDS Should Make-Issue (or SUE Shrub) over Sexual Harrassment
Shrub making references to "prettiest man". Dennis MILLER making Gay jokes. This will only snowball into a wink-wink LIMBOsevic type of personal ridicule. Unfortunately, Teresa KERRY also called him "beautiful" and contrasted "beautiful" with "smart".

1. Edwards is good looking, for a politician
but he is not the adonis from the mountaintop. Enough of the references to his looks from these boobs--especially the head boob.

2. I also think
he should have the mole on the left side of his mouth removed, and it would be better if Elizabeth avoids Wendy's for a while.

7. Sorry everybody!
I didn't mean to offend. I just always have this desire to make everything and everybody better. Shallow, I admit, but I can't help it. Guess I better keep this kind of opinion to myself!

10. Might be better for us all if...
...you post this stuff on Free Republic.

I'm sure they will enjoy it a lot more than DUers, and you might feel more comfortable there.

4. I think that many men are very afraid of being called fags
and the Repubs are playing on that fear.

Why do you think the Repubs call Edwards the Breck girl?

Why did Arnold call the elected Dems girly-men?

It's a tactic used by bullies? Do what I say or you will be next.

The only response I can think of is to keep showing photos of Edwards in his football uniform. Edwards loved sports, so whatever sports he participates in now should be in photos released by the campaign.

I think all the Repubs need a Time-Out, not just Cheney.

8. You've gotta admit, the Democratic ticket is athletic.
Edited on Sat Jul-31-04 10:57 AM by Bullshot
Kerry in a hockey uniform. Edwards in a football uniform.

Compared to he-man Bush in a cheerleader skirt, holding a megaphone. And Cheney just sitting there telling people to do things anatomically impossible.

And then there's Ahhnold and the wooden balls he has from all those steroids he took during his days as a body builder.

9. I totally forgot about Bush the cheerleader
That reminded me of Trent Lott the cheerleader

If the Dems had a "rag" I would see those cheerleader pictures every time I stood in line at the grocery store. Then I wouldn't be able to forget how "manly" the Repub leaders are.

12. I think the best way to deal with this sort of crap is to stay above it.
Edited on Sat Jul-31-04 02:27 PM by Cat Atomic
They should point out the Republicans' hateful rhetoric without engaging in it themselves. Be the adults.

Kerry did that very well at the convention. Instead of just fighting fire with fire, he subtly pointed out their lies and attacks, and then stayed positive. Kerry seemed like an adult and the Republicans seemed like a bunch of unruly children.

They should just keep that attitude. They've got the high ground.
