I think the phrase you're looking for is, "able to suck a golf ball through 50 feet of garden hose".


She should be sucking SOMETHING....good gawd!!!

I read this to DH...he said he wonders what kind of deal she made with the judge and just what she is doing for him. 

I see what you are saying, but I think here it is a hostile act, whereas there it is also symbolic. I don't know a ton about the Middle-eastern culture, but I think shoes are very symbolic.

The whole point was that we don't really need the newspapers to tell us that throwing shoes at someone might just possibly be considered an insult. I mean, seriously...each of them insisted on spelling it out for us as if we couldn't possibly understand it. They must all think that we're just unimaginably stoopid.

This goes to a thread I read on another site...the dumbing down of America.  The gist of it is that news people think that they have to talk down to people to make them understand the news.  No big words, that general idea.  This did take it to another level.  Yeah, I was so stoopit I thought he threw that shoe at GWB because he liked him...who knew he was actually telling him what a jackass he is!  I am SO glad the reporters clarified that for me...oops...I used a big word!

This might explain why United Technologies went out of business in my area...leaving over 400 people without jobs in our little town of 5000.  She made in one week the salary of 2 production workers for the year. 

This makes me SICK.
