1. What's wrong with this picture? Not sure why you're scolding.

If your goal is to toss shade at WJC, you're in the wrong hall. No politics in the lounge, rug.

If you think he's doing anything untoward, he's quite the lothario to manage that in such a large crowd, surrounded by cameras.


And that's the kind of crap that gets tossed at freeper sites.



Pictures are worth a thousand words, but not all of those words add up to truth.

Sample:

I'm simply sharing my honest opinion with you--I'm not net nannying. Your post comes across as one that might give aid and comfort to the other side.

To my eye, this looks like the kind of crap a Freeper would post.

And I know you are not a Freeper, which is why I was puzzled that


a) You would post it, and

b) You'd post it in the apolitical lounge.


This just doesn't look "kind" to me.

5. You do GOP work when you post that kind of stuff, though.

I know there's no longer a "no sex threads" rule here (as there was in the moderator days) but we're in primary season, and the lounge is supposed to be a haven.

Making fun of a spouse of a Democratic candidate isn't probably a good look here, at this time. This is just my opinion, YMMV.

SOP for the Lounge? This is a politics-free zone.

And I'm not playing net nanny...I'm just sharing my opinion in an open and sincere way.

This ain't the place to start another shitfling about candidates' spouses. There's enough of that going on elsewhere.

Doesn't it look to anybody else but me that the lady is a really big fan of Bill and she's lip-locked onto him pretty strongly?
To say nothing about the grip she's got on his neck. And that hand on her shoulder ain't Bill's….unless he's taken to wearing very long coral-tinted fingernails.

10. That's what it looks like to me, too--and what IS up with that hand!

LOL--there's the equivalent of a rugby scrum up in there, and they're all lined up for a peck at the Big Dawg!
