A word, From Americas Greatest President.
...To me, the finish of the debate was probably more significant: In my closing statement, I asked people if they thought they were better off now than they had been four years earlier. If they were, I said they should vote for my opponent; if not, I said I thought they'd agree with me that it was time for a change. After a final week of campaigning, Nancy and I returned to Los Angeles for election day and to await the people's decision. Late that afternoon, I was in the shower, getting cleaned up for the evening, when Nancy, who'd already taken her bath and was wrapped in a towel, came into the bathroom and shouted above the drizzle of the shower water that I was wanted on the telephone. "It's Jimmy Carter," she said.
I turned off the water and got out of the shower and dried off a little, then grabbed an extension phone in the bathroom while Nancy stood beside me. After listening for a few minutes, I said, "Thank you, Mr. President." Then I hung up the phone and looked at Nancy and said, "He conceded. He said he wanted to congratulate me." Instinctively, she gave me a big hug and I hugged her. The polls in California wouldn't even close for another two hours. But standing in my bathroom with a towel wrapped around me, my hair dripping with water, I had just learned I was going to be the fortieth president of the United States.

The classic, dictionary definition of excrementitious:

Naturally, when CBS decides to do a movie on the disgraced quandom President Clinton, they will promote him in a far more glorious way than the excrementitious way they seem to desire to promote the vastly more accomplished Mr. Reagan. It is apparent that they are only going to provide a slight adumbration of the erstwhile Great Communicator's more important and world changing accomplishments while providing the same adumbration to Clinton's vast array of misdeeds.
Doing such will simply serve to impugn the character of the great Mr. Reagan while providing vast degrees of blarney and flummery to be added to Mr. Clinton's already turgid ego; unfortunately, due to the torpor and lack of cerebration on behalf of many Americans, many who are too young to remember one or both former Presidents are somewhat likely to fall for the trick. Sigh.....

These movie jerks make me sick. Talk about a hatchet job! HEY DUBYA - NUKE HOLLYWOOD! (Claim you were aiming at North Korea, but the Dems cut spending on guidance systems under Clinton - sorry about that!)
I apologize for the rant.
Meanwhile, the puny-minded robotic PC Fascisti ignoramuses are excrementally suggesting the Gubernator take take sexual harrassment classes! I think THEY should take a flying leap. Get this: "He better say he'll do it,'' said Helen Grieco, executive director of the California chapter of the National Organization for Women. "This would be a good-faith effort on his part to be, as he said he would be, a champion of women.''
He better?!? Or else what? Hey, Helen! If he wants to do something for real women, he'll have your feeding tube pulled, you loathesome bitch!
Sorry, ranting again.

The NFL is beginning to suspect that the E in ESPN stands for excrementitous.

Hitlery has stepped in the
excrement again and politicos in NY were
NOT too polite to call her on it. Wonder if she will clean it off of her shoes, or just keep walking like she did for 8 years in the White House and more in the Senate?
