5. One minute he's gangbanging her, next he's cutting her cold.
She's got quite a fantasy life.

17. um...i don't think "gangbanging" is appropriate here.

32. The photo shows what happened. Clinton saw Ted and Obama, went to them.
By the time she got there, Obama had begun walking away. I anticipate the video will show further proof of this.

58. "Kennedy shook her hand while Obama ...turned away."

"Kennedy shook her hand while Obama, wearing a dark suit and standing between the two, turned away."

Sounds pretty clear to me, and the way I'm reading his facial expressions, Obama looked pissed. Maybe he didn't like Kennedy shaking Clinton's hand? I don't know. Clinton, btw, is not my favorite.

But all of them are my favorite when compared to the republicans. It's good to keep things in perspective. Plus keep in mind this happened at Bush's State of the Union address, which couldn't have been pleasant for any of them.

going to talk to others. How the hell do you know he did it when your own source says that it was mutual? Where is Rove?

26. False. Try again.
Look carefully at the photo. Clinton is reaching to shake someone ELSE'S hand...her eyes arent even on Obama.

Come on Hillarbots, do I have to walk you through this?

21. The photo shows Hillary shaking Kennedy's hand, ignoring Obama
so he turns away. That was complete bullshit but so is your suggestion that he refused to shake her hand when she never offered it.

25. Well, so far I trust the way AP reports it, not the way ...
... Clinton supporters or Obama supporters (which I am) report it, because many of them have a tendency to lie about anything negative about their candidate.

That's ok. This is a silly story, at best.

51. So, in his smallness, Obama turned away in guilt!
Thank you, Hillary for doing the right thing, you always do!

He didn't want to touch your hand, because of the guilt of what he has done!

60. Well the only real implications
Is that MSM is reporting it and whether there wasn't anything to it or not I'm sure some people will take it as shunning Hillary. Just my opinion.

abandoned him and sent him away to live with his white grandparents. And she stayed to live in Jakarta. Wonderful parents both of them.:eyes:
