I've said it dozens..hundreds of times over the past 15 years on many a site....Why,oh why do the tinfoil hatted leftist loons always look like this? For goodness sake, you can see every evil thing in the world they believe in, in their faces, in particular Carville's. He looks sick. I hope he's not for Mary's sake, but he looks awfully anorexic, tired and old. You are not welcome back in my world.

Wasn’t Carville one of the guys chasing Will Smith around in ‘I Am Legend’? Good to see him getting out more…

Lest there be some of y’all that don’t know James…he would go to work tomorrow for B.Obama if the price was right. James Carville’ is in this thing for the money and the prestige that it give him…BUT…the money comes first.

Huh. I sat right across the aisle from Axelrod on a flight from Boston to Chicago yesterday afternoon. (Who wants to touch me? Who wants to f***ing touch me?) Didn’t know who he was at the time, but he was loudly talking into a cell phone before we left the gate about how somebody (in retrospect, he had to mean the Obamessiah) was a little disappointed, but that’s the nature of presidential politics. I noted his name on the front of the binder he was looking at.

Wish I’d known who he was; I would have figured out a way to screw with him a little.

Somehow it never seems to me that Carville uses words to express an idea, let alone to persuade, so much as a bludgeon to beat people over the head with. After awhile an opponent doesn’t so much lose the argument, as they get worn out from the shouting. This is apparent not only in his books, but in his talk show appearances. I can’t imagine him as the “brains” behind any administration, so much as the “cheerleader.” Not that he hasn’t served his usefulness. But sooner or later, an administration succeeds on its ideas, not its comic relief.

I really don’t think Carville ever won a genuine debate in his entire career. After all, debates tend to have rules, and require a burden of proof.

sympathy AND admiration

Actually, that completely degrades side show freaks to compare Jimmy to those who are truly worthy of sympathy. I take it back and say instead: we must have pity for this Clinton handiwipe. He sold his soul long ago and has no choice in what he does or says.

I’m in need of some meds after that…phew.
I almost forgot Jimmy Cahville, then this clip reminded me of his humble and tragic origin. His parents were gators from the Lou-si-annah swamp and he has had nothing but bad luck since he hatched and his daddy almost ate him.
We must avert our eyes and have pity for this side-show freak.

Carville’s name popped into my head when Will Smith had him hanging upside down. What a creature. LOL

Bringing Carville back says more about the state of the Clinton campaign than anything.

James Carville on January 8, 2008:

“Fox was, is and will continue to be an asinine and ignorant network. I have not spoken to anyone in the Clinton campaign about this. I have not done domestic political consulting since President Clinton was elected. I’m not getting back into domestic political consulting. If I do go back, it would be safe to say that I’m the biggest liar in America.”

’nuff said.

Aaahhh, how I’ve missed that evil-eyed squint, that extra-terrestrial accent. Good to have you back, James. Do your party proud, huh? ;)

“It’s a war, Larry! It’s a war! Bill Clinton against the invaders, trying to kill you with second-hand smoke and lil’ kindergartners who they’ll burn down your house playin’ with matches and lighters as Ken Starr flies around in a space ship!”

RE my Terminator clip from yesterday…

I’m still cracking myself up over the Terminator clip from yesterday, juxtaposing Hillary! with the T1 in the awesome final scene of the original movie. That is, until I saw this clip over at Hot Air and was chilled to……

Heh, a good part of that was lifted from Yosemite Sam when he was explaining to Bugs Bunny who he was in “Seagoing Sam”.

Despite his fascination with Batman figurines and the fact that he looks like he was sired during the love scene in Deliverence, I like Carville.

He’s a foul mouthed, hard drinking, dirty politics playing, blood thirstiest, shoot fistiest, most wostiest, riff raffenest riff that ever riffed a raff.

I’d love to hoist a few coldies and swap sea stories with him, wouldn’t want to run against one of his clients though.

Sweet! The more they stab each other in public, the more footage the RNC has to play back in the General election. (But that sword can cut both ways.)

Carville is an embarrassment-if the Clintons were able to feel embarrassed, they should be for bringing Carville back into a campaign. As others have noted,it tosses out the Hillary agent of change meme. Agent of change back to the failed admin of her husband is more like it.

What exactly is “friendly” with the campaign?
