2. Sly -- they made him look ridiculous
and he couldn't do anything about it.
He looks like a pimp. I hope he goes to a hat factory next and gets a big red, white, and blue pimp hat to go with the shoes.

6. Look at the bottom photo
It looks like he's going to do a soft shoe or tap dancing routine.
What a doofus.

12. Now I've got that Tom Lehrer number running through my head...
Hollywood's often tried to mix
show business with politics,
from Helen Gahagan
to... Ronald Reagan??
But Mister Murphy is the star
who's done the best by far.

Oh, gee, it's great!
At last we've got a senator who can
really sing and dance!
We can't expect America
to win against its foes
with no one in the senate who
can really tap his toes!

The movies that you've seen
on your television screen
show his legislative talents at a glance.
Should Americans pick crops? George says no,
'cause no one but a Mexican would stoop so low.
And after all, even in Egypt, the pharaohs
had to import
Hebrew braceros.

Think of all the musicals we have in store.
Imagine: Broadway Melody of 1984.
Yes, now that he's a senator, he's really got the chance
to give the public
a song and dance!

17. Well, he *HAS* been tap-dancing all around reality and any real issues
for the past several years. He may as well have the shoes for it!

He looks like he's ready to go bowling.

28. He looks like he's about to break out in a tap dance in some of them.
And in one picture, he looks like it's the first day with the new feet.

35. I doubt he'll ever wear them again.
They are positively ugly!

The Allen-Edmonds shoe company is a very good one that sells executive-quality high-priced shoes. I don't know what they cost now, but I'd guess around $200 a pair for their usual brown or black wing tips. So the joke's on chimp--he misses out on getting a really nice pair of quality shoes and has to settle for some he'll never wear. Maybe he can wear them cutting brush!

39. Damn, are those reverse platform shoes? Looks like the thick part is
under the toes instead of the heels!!

That is very poor advertising for the shoe factory. I would never want to buy their shoes.

But I love the fact that they made a fool out of * or rather a bigger fool than he already was.

Clown shoes for a clown prez!

He just makes Clinton look better and better with every little breath he takes.



What with those pleats on both sides of his crotch?

I'm learning how to use Paintshop Pro and Animation Factory. Unfortunately, I'm teaching myself and learn by trial and error.

He is the dorkiest, most ill-begotten fool on the planet and giving him shoes is da bomb of irony. WTF does he need more shoes for? Is * Imelduh marcos or what? they must be for condi, who probably has BUNIONS from bowing & scraping.
