Gosh...this is getting to be fun again! I can push your buttons even when I'm trying NOT to push them!!
I think it's cute that you have the lib ladies falling all over you w/ regard to your online manner. Don't worry, I won't puke over it.
Oh, and sorry 'bout that 'last word' thing. I took it back...unless of course you have another novel in store to reply to THIS post.
Back to Hillary...
Apple Well, let's see.... Actually, I really didnt' recall it until after you used your 'cut & paste' of quotes hobby to remind me. Then I recalled it...serioulsy though, it didn't make an impression. Hope your not taking too much pride in that one statement. If you didn't "recall" it, what was it that you responded to 20 minutes later? Let's get our story straight here. I am, however, taking a great deal of pride in the statement. I know that you are intelligent enough to fully appreciate it, and that's why you keep denying that you remember it. Gosh...this is getting to be fun again! I can push your buttons even when I'm trying NOT to push them!! When was it ever not fun? I'm thoroughly enjoying myself as, clearly, you are too. But back to the button pushing again? I think we've covered that fairly well already, haven't we? :rolleyes: I think it's cute that you have the lib ladies falling all over you w/ regard to your online manner. Don't worry, I won't puke over it. My fan base, I think, transcends politics. Why, even Mig likes me, and let me tell you, she's no "lib". Oh, and sorry 'bout that 'last word' thing. I took it back...unless of course you have another novel in store to reply to THIS post. Well, no. I don't think your post is quite worthy of an entire novel in response. A few paragraphs should do. I must say, though, that I am a bit disappointed that after promising me the last word you took it back so quickly. Could it be....Nah.....Well, maybe....Could it be.....Could it be that I'm pushing your buttons?

Originally posted by plawrence: [QUOTE]...If you didn't "recall" it, what was it that you responded to 20 minutes later? Let's get our story straight here.... Ok, we'll get it straight (although I thought you were intelligent enough to figure it out by yourself). I responded to what you refer to as the 'pig' post...and then forgot about it. Moved on... When you mentioned it later as the 'pig' post, I had no idea what you were referring to. Because I had moved on... Then you 'reminded' me because you were apparently very proud of what you thought had pushed my buttons, and then yes, I remembered the statement. It really wasn't that big a deal, plaw. If that's all it takes to make you feel good about yourself, then I think you need a little therapy. No, you're not pushing any of my buttons...though I see you're trying real hard to. All you're really doing is helping me entertain our fellow BB-ers. plawrence - my little helper! Apple ps - who needs to be 'original' when this old hat stuff seems to work every time!!

OK. I understand the part about the "Pig Post" now.
Explain one more thing to me:
I've said on many occasions already that I agree with you 100%. You are "pushing my buttons" and I don't see the negative connotation to it as you appaerntly do, as all of everyone's responses in these political discussions where we disagree are a result of "pushed buttons."
But explain to me the difference between why, when I reply to one of your posts it's because you've "pushed my buttons", but when you reply to mine "buttons" have nothing to do with it.
Glad I can help you entertain, though.
AppleOnYa, my big helper.
P.S. Your lack of originality does not surprise me, as one's originality generally cannot be exceeded by their capabilities.
And I've decided to let you have the last word. You already have, and I'm about to, violate the rule of "One Too Many."

Originally posted by plawrence: ... explain to me the difference between why, when I reply to one of your posts it's because you've "pushed my buttons", but when you reply to mine "buttons" have nothing to do with it... Because it's the way you've responded to my posts. Because I usually know what you're going to say and am usually right. Because even when I do not post to you personally, there are certain times when I think "oh, plaw will probably have something to say about THAT". And am usually right. (In all fairness though, there are certain others on the BB that I anticipate certain responses from, especially in General Discussion ... and am usually right about them, too. Including within this thread.) And because most of all, when I made the 'cow' remark as a footnote to all the OTHER things I disliked about Hillary Clinton, I thought 'watch somebody latch onto that and disregard the rest of the post'. And I was right. That's the difference between pushing buttons and a mere reply to a question or comment. You push a button anticipating a certain response or action, whether it's a washing machine or a person. Not my problem if certain BB-ers come back with almost exactly the reaction I expect, and almost every time. One thing I did expect and didn't get was for you to be mature enough to walk away from this silly tete-tete of ours and get on with the thread (which is still an interesting one). I kept figuring you'd think 'she WON'T push my buttons I'll just give her nothing further to respond to'. I kept thinking, 'He's NOT going to allow me to go on with this dopey stuff..." What did you do...you stooped to my level every single time. And how did it all start? Because I joked that I agreed with someone who says Hillary is a cow. Yes, there certainly IS a difference. And I am certifiably insane. Congratulations for running around in circles with a lunatic. And thanks for the last word. Apple

Originally posted by Sicilian Babe: I think if someone asked me why I don't like President Bush, and I answered, "Because his ears stick out and he can't pronounce the word nuclear," those would seem like silly reasons. I agree, they are silly reasons, but there are dozens of books out there full of stupid things the President says. Usually when I ask people who don't like Bush why, they say he's an idiot. I'll ask them to explain why, and 99% of the time they'll reference the way he talks. Silly little things make a big impression on people. People can like of dislike Hillary because of her politics, or for any other reason. I dislike her for a variety of reasons, but one of them is not because she's a woman. I'm getting tired of hearing that as a defense: you just don't like to see a powerful woman. It's not true. I'd love to see more powerful women, just not that woman.

Originally posted by The Italian Stallionette: I just know the "Right" will love this. It is funny. So here, have your laughs. Just for you.
HILLARY'S FIRST NIGHT AS PRESIDENT in January 2009
Hillary Clinton gets elected President and is spending her first night in the White House. She has waited so long..........The ghost of George Washington appears, and Hillary says, "How can I best serve my country?"
Washington says, "Never tell a lie."
"Ouch!" Says Hillary,! "I don't know about that."
The next night, the ghost of Thomas Jefferson appears... Hillary says, "How can I best serve my country?" Jefferson says,
"Listen to the people."
"Ohhh! I really don't want to do that."
On the third night, the ghost of Abe Lincoln appears...Hillary says, "How can I best serve my country?"
Lincoln says, "Go to the theater."
TIS Now this was funny especially the last part. Originally posted by Sicilian Babe: FS, Feel free to dislike her all you want for whatever reason you want. Personally, I like to make my political choices based on a reason of some substance, and perhaps you don't. I was merely pointing out that most people seemed to dislike her on an irrational and strictly emotional level, which once again makes me believe that it has something to do with her being an intelligent and aggressive female. SB in my original post the first 3 reasons I listed as to why I dislike Hilary has to do with politics. I have no problem with intelligent/aggresive women(especially in the bedroom  ) heck I could even see myself voting for one one day. But just not Hilary. So I have very valid reasons for not liking Hilary, and it's not based on an irrational/emotional level.
