The sparkling husband primitive, soon to be my first Freudian case-study, as soon as I recover from income taxes.

Lemme get this straight ..... a former US president and Nobel Laureate is being denied security ....
..... in Israel because he will be speaking with the DULY ****ING ELECTED LEADERSHIP of a large part of the citizenry of Israel? A man who embodies Shalom in all he has done with his life is treated this way because eh dares to work still again for peace? The man who brokered what has turned out to be an unprecedentedly long and successful peace with Israel's former sworn enemy and neighbor, Egypt. That guy?
Is that about it?
If it is, may I be among the latest to send Israel a great big, honking
after which photograph showing the finger
Oh dear.
The sparkling husband primitive's impotently raging again, against his voluntary orchidectomy.

5. It was probably their idea.
Predictably, the above two primitive comments are the sentiments around the bonfire, which is a very large bonfire. A few sample comments, selected at random:

33. Junior hates to travel, so he won't care
Recall before he was elected. He had never been anywhere except Mexico up until he was elected.
We have a moron for a president.
on edit: Did I say 'elected'? I did. Man, how we get brainwashed.
Selected. He was never 'elected'.
The sparkling husband primitive's the one who still refers to Alphonse Capote Gore as "Mr. President;" sort of like franksolich referring to Robert Dole as "Mr. President."

9. Save your vitriol for the Israeli government, not the Israeli people.
Most Israeli citizens want peace, and if that means talks with Hamas, and the establishment of a Palestinian state, then so be it.
It's the neo-con rightists here in America and in the Israeli govt. that perpetuate this idiotic policy of non-negotiation.
Just so you know!
Now, the mudpuddle primitive has me all confused.
What's there to "negotiate"?
Hamas has made it clear they wish to "negotiate" Israel out of existence.
And they haven't budged an inch.
So.....what's there to "negotiate"?

15. Well, I'm just trying to point out that hating the Israeli government is one thing...
On the other hand, hating the Israeli people? That flirts dangerously close to anti-Semitism.

24. The Israeli people who GET IT are as marginalized as those of you in the U.S. are. You NEVER hear of the countless efforts to forge a road to peace. How many of you know of Daniel Barenboim's efforts? The members of his orchestra will NOW be required to learn each other's languages to keep the bullshit levels down to a minimum. So many efforts, SO ****ING LITTLE COVERAGE. As so many of you rail against being identified with the Junta you support through your apathy, "battered wife syndrome," taxes and Stockholm Syndrome, PLEASE ACCORD THE ISRAELIS the SAME consideration.

36. Take me to the woodshed!
If that the case, I clearly misunderstood and apologize profusely for that error.
These days I'll take all support gratefully!
Yeah, what with all these bill-collectors calling the sparkling husband primitive lately.
What's really driving the sparkling husband primitive nuts is a lack of nuts.
