Here Ted! Hey! Shake my hand so it doesn't look all shitty that I don't deserve your endorsement!

[LoZoccolo]

Hey! Come on! Here! Do it!

(To me, that is very rude, and is basically using Ted Kennedy for damage control.)

[Catherine Vincent]

1. You Obama supporters can't let it go can ya?

teehee!

[LoZoccolo]

3. It was very unpresidential.

She could cause an international incident with her rudeness.

She learned it from Bill, too, with his rudeness on display the last couple weeks.

[leftynyc]

15. Because we all know how unpopular

Bill Clinton is around the world (sarc). Your candidate screwed up last night - do try and deal with the reality of that instead of "look over there" which is exactly how the pukes argue. And I might add, you are going to need Clinton supporters (and Edwards supporters) in November. Is this how you're planning on running with a "unity" message?

[1corona4u]

18. no, they're going to keep spinning it, and hope they can blame it

on Hillary, like they always do. They hope that if the blame her long enough, and the story becomes so convoluted, that people will think it was all her fault. Not working this time.

[jlake]

23. That is definitely their m.o. & I hope you're right. It has worked too long and

is growing quite thin.

[Infinite Hope]

31. It seems to be the Hillary supporters fussing over the snub. The rest of us think it's funny. n/t

[joeybee12]

2. It's called class...

She was saying to him that she understood hsi reasons, and that there were no hard feelings. All great politicians understand this. Tiny, thin-skinned men don't.

[LoZoccolo]

4. In front of the cameras, lol. n/t

[joeybee12]

6. apparently you don't know the nature of politics...EVERYTHING

is in front of the cameras.

The funny thing is Obama comes off a shitty little worm, and you try to spin it as if Hilary did soemthing wrong. Pathetic.

[LoZoccolo]

8. Sure, that's why it was a damage control handshake.

Obama was the classy one, letting her have her damage control.

19. Exactly. See my post above.

[FredScuttle]

5. Yeah, because men are the only ones with thin skin...

:eyes:

[joeybee12]

7. No, but he apparently is prety thin-skinned...

...but actually reading the post and not making a knee-jerk reaction wouldn't occur to you, would it?

[FredScuttle]

11. My point was.....why "men"?

Why couldn't you have said "tiny, thin-skinned people"? Is there not a single female on the planet with thin skin?

[joeybee12]

17. Sorry, but I can't imagine my saying "a man" would make you

think I should have said people...BO is a man, he's a thin-skinned man.

[acmavm]

10. No. "Here Ted. Let me show you there's no hard feelings and

I can be the better person."

And I support Edwards.

[WinkyDink]

14. Exactly.

[LoZoccolo]

24. In front of the cameras.

Yeah, uh huh.

[proud2BlibKansan]

12. Y'all need to get over this and move on

[Catherine Vincent]

16. I agree.

They need to admit that Obama was rude and stop making excuses for him.

[LoZoccolo]

28. I agree.

They need to admit that Hillary is rude and does things for the cameras to put spin on her failed endorsements.

[zabet]

13. I will tell you what is rude...

the refusal to see
Obama as anything but
the second coming of
Christ by his followers.
I think there is an
Obama Camp somewhere like
Jesus Camp.

[proud2BlibKansan]

33. As opposed to St Hillary and her groupies

[zabet]

34. They are bad

just the Obama ones
seem to be worse.

FYI - Not a Hillary nor an Obama supporter
:hi:

[mtnsnake]

20. So when a man shakes, it's good sportsmanship, but when a woman does it, it's "very rude"

[LoZoccolo]

25. Yes, that is exactly what I am saying. n/t

[mtnsnake]

32. So you're proud of your misogynistic beliefs?

[Tom Rinaldo]

21. “As Clinton approached, Kennedy made sure to make eye contact and indicated he wanted to...

...shake her hand".
http://weblogs.chicagotribune.com/news/politics/blog/2008/01/by_frank_james_president_bush.html

Stop spinning this as if poor Senator Kennedy was some type of victim here. He understands the importance of the political ritual of America's leaders, who may be divided over politics, publically acting civil toward each other at the State of the Union Address. He was just as much a willing participant in that unity ritual as was Hillary Clinton.

[LoZoccolo]

26. Chicago Tribune corporate media spin supporting their corporatist candidate. n/t

[calico1]

27. Thank you. That's how I read it happened

from the reporters who were there covering.

[LoZoccolo]

29. That is because you believe the corporate MSM lies. n/t

[jlake]

22. That's not what happened. And it's not how my local news covered it.

Ruh Roh for Obama... this thing's got legs!
