(135,425 posts)He's getting on the horn and using sexist language to express his disapproval and his pure OPINION--not "revelations," an OPINION--about Obama.
Would you like it if I did the same sort of thing to indicate my disapprobation with your comments? Of course you wouldn't. You'd be angry. You'd hit that alert button and give me a bit of what-for.
That jerky name-calling foolishness isn't what mature, thoughtful adults discussing differences in intelligence policy do, after all.
Should Obama get up and say something shirty to Putin, like, "Say Pootie, you need a brassiere for those MOOOOOOOBS!!!" You wouldn't think much of that sort of thing, now, would you?
So why is "Julian" special? Let's hope it's not the dreamy eyes, or the way he tosses his freakishly colored hair?
It's called "attention seeking behavior," and poor little Julian just hasn't outgrown that toddler's device. It reflects poorly on him, and it dilutes whatever "message" he's trying to convey.
In sum--he comes off like an ass, and people are noticing.
