Since Obama supporters refer to Bill and Hillary as "Billary"... |
|
I don't guess they'll mind if we start referring to Michele and Barack as "Micrack."

59. OP is missing the point here.... |
|
"billary" was made up because bill was the president... since Michele doesn't appear to have any presidential aspirations, the term hardly fits.
I don't use billary, I think it just lessons your point. However, if the OP wants to lower people's opinion on his/her intelligence level... let him.

|
and I don't think it is all one way or the other. Some like it, some don't. Your posts make me think you can't grasp such subtleties, though, so I'm not sure why I am bothering.

38. Yes, it is soooo subtle, I can see why anyone could miss it. |
|
It is a pun (the highest form of humor?) mixed with an insult - the kind of humor Rush or Dennis Miller might like. Abomination - cause of disgust and hatred.
It's just a joke!
So
Are you trying to suppress dem enthusiasm and vote? Be so mean to people that they don't vote if Hillary gets the nom? That is only a good strategy if you have...an agenda.
Or maybe fighting is such fun you don't care about the possible repercussions?

There are no possible repercussions. Dude calls Hillary supporters cretins, and gets the pun wrong. I correct dude, because I am sick of HRCbots and the Obamanation flinging poo, and I am out of hope that either side cares about anything truthy. I fear both of them are too weak to beat Grandpa McCain. I do not see how there could be negative repercussions beyond what both sides are already doing.

You see, many of us remember Bill telling th public, when he was running, that you got the pair when you voted for him, a two for one.
We supported Bill when he was in the Whitehouse, throughout all of the scandals, the bimbo gate for one cannot be disputed.

Or does anyone else get the feeling that such Right Wing epithets are used by Obama supporters not to earnestly attack Hillary, but just to highlight what to expect from the Right Wing if Clinton is the nominee? I for one don't believe in the "Billary" jargon, but I think we can sure expect to hear plenty of it if she's our nominee.

"Billary" is a right-wing derogatory term, as is "HillBilly" (which is also classist). People who call themselves Democrats have no business perpetuating either of them.

25. "Billary" goes back to 1992 |
|
When Bill Clinton was saying things like 'two for the price of one', or Hillary was saying 'buy one get one free'. It was a joke in response tothe fact that they were selling themselves as a team of two intelligent people rather than the candidate + supportive wifey stereotype.

I mean it gets so bad, why not just mix the stupid (billary) of Obama supporters with the racist innuendo (Micrack) of the Clinton Spokespersons Wolfson and Penn? :spank:
You are actually pretty brilliant! I don't think many will get the joke underlying, because it hits two opposing parties. damn, you and that frog have some teeth.
Edit after reading new responses - do the Hillary supporters know it's more than just tit for tat, but a critique that hits both the idiocy of Obama supporters (using Rush lingo) AND the cravenness of CLinton staff? (the cocaine whisper campaign)
Or do you like the Barack=coke meme? The clinton campaign sure did. Maddie is too smart to be less than multi-leveled inher humor.

76. Republicans used "Billary" in the 1990s |
|
to deride Hillary Clinton for being ambitious and smart and trying to be involved with her husband's work. People here use Billary because of Bill's inordinate involvement in the campaign (not as true recently), and becuse Hillary has the tendency to conflate her accomplishments with his (e.g. "we created jobs in the 90s" "we put 100,000 cops on the streets").
