Jack & Jill Politics

her criticism wasn't met with hostility.

Most of us developed a relationship with Truth. We know her writing style and that was not her for a whole host of reasons, and she certainly wouldn't write about her nipples being hard.

So UNLESS you recognize that although we develop relationships with each other, we never expect to agree on all everything. At times it does get heated depending on the topic (I have been on the receiving end as well a few times) however, I never doubt that my voice on this blog was not welcome.

Bottom line folks pushed back last night because that poster was not Truth.

100% co-sign. I've been blogging on JJP since August 2008, and observe different rhythms and styles of commentaries from ther regular bloggers.

For me, TruthSeeker's tone and style of commentary is TRUTHFULLY succinct
She's a Canuck, I used to live in Canada. Without sterotyping anyone, Canadians are a tad bit reserved, and Truth wouldn't not go there with the “HARD NIPPLE”T comment, at least not on the blogging site. The poster last night was not TruthSeeker. PERIOD.

Well said, Val.

And let me add that the latest insinuations that JJP are hostile towards those who disagree is a complete falsehood, and generally comes from those who can dish it out, but can't take it. JMO.

Why should I “prove” it?

Pilgrims?

The fact you see no signs of weakness in Obama is peculiar..considering that he is human and all humans have them. Obama has some very distinct “tells” for his weaknesses.

I don't think he's “passive aggressive”. And, indeed he is “keeping it real” by inadvertently revealing his weakness.

That's extreme…

Why does he have to be either shady or a “punch drunk coon”?

He is a politician.

He is a man with a considerable ego, who doesn't like to look foolish. He probably beats himself up about it, replaying the incident over in his head obsessively. He has a strong moral sense. When he feels he is not living up to that moral ideal (as politics often requires him to do)…he squirms, feels guilty, feels like a fraud, says stupid things, puts his foot in his mouth, is self-deprecating, cracks lame jokes, prevaricates and is sometimes petulant.

…In other words, he's a real, live human being.

Obama doesn't hide himself carefully …and the GOP will continue to poke at his sore spot, by trying to humiliate him.

What link will prove embarrassment?

You just have to understand body language…and be open to the possibility that he can have weaknesses…and be ok with that.

:)

So, now you know my secret.

Ed may be embarrassed too… I'm not really interested in that.

It wasn't so much his words…but for his body language..and the facts, his words might be interpreted either way. Saying he wants to know what he was taking about doesn't make sense given that he feigned outrage at the bonuses..when it is presumed that he was aware of his treasury dept.'s request for the clause. If in fact he was NOT aware…that also presents a problem. The administration's supposed outrage doesn't jibe with the facts. Squirming and lying makes them look weak and small.

They were pandering to the public outrage…poorly.

..I have many “styles”.
