My god, what a disgrace! Drunk or sober? What do you think? Still laughing nonetheless. :grr:

1. People stumble.
If we can't limit our criticism to substantive issues, we will be taken less seriously.

7. Too late.
I've been flamed a lot in the past when I've called for respect for all, even those who oppose us. Ad hominem attacks don't do anything to further rational discussion.

11. I think I personally hate this man.
That's not something I say easily.

But I will not cast my lot with those who can't tell the difference between what is important and what isn't.

Ridicule is *very* suspicious.

4. Yeah, ataxia is reallly funny, dummy.
If this were an isolated incident he might be able to laugh it off.

It's not, so I find it unconvincing.

16. oh I see
Thanks for clarifying that. I was getting worried for a second and then figured I probably had not read it quite right which was indeed the case.

I find this worrisome. Drunk perhaps?

12. He's doing that on purpose. It's a joke.
Have you ever made a silly face?

I, for one, understand the desire not to be bound by cliche social rules.

9. Hmmm, he has more reaction to stumbling than to giving
back rubs to heads of states. I wonder why?

10. I wish he had taken a Ford style tumble--funny thing is Ford was
really one of the most athletic of presidents--while the Chimp is a common fool--if he'd have stumbled and fallen he might have cried.

13. The man is a FAILURE. It's no surprise walking is such a challenge
to him. Give him a break, OK? When your IQ is so low that a loss of even 1% would cause your bodily functions to cease, you have to make the best of it.
