I think “Butt-gig” sounds about right.

This would be a GREAT thread for Jim Robinson to step in, ZOT half the responses, and announce that this forum is going to be kept family friendly.

The longer this guy stays in the Democrat race, the longer FR becomes a place that increasingly cannot be recommended to family, friends, and kids.

If this is not done, then where are we supposed to send our children to keep up to date on conservative issues. Shouldn’t FreeRepublic be a “safe place” for use in a high school class?

What message are we sending as conservatives?

"Butty-Gig".

I know it is the wrong pronunciation. I couldn't care less. I am sticking with that.

Trump's use of nicknames is apparently not an accident or a product of inferior intellect...I have heard that he read, and took to heart, Jung's book: The Archetypes and The Collective Unconscious".

I have never read it, but am told that it encompasses the labeling of people, and the psychological aspects that spring from that.

Butty-Gig is toast.

When I was in the Navy, we had a Chief Petty Officer who had a penchant for giving nicknames to people. The thing about his nicknames is that when certain people apply them...they stick. And you will never get rid of them, good or bad. So you hoped you would get "assigned" a good one. (This is much like pilot call signs. Once they are applied to you, you will not get rid of them) Some of the nicknames were "Greaseman", "Wingnut", "Stinky", "Professor", "Bruce Lee", and eventually his own applied to him by others..."Chief Muddy Waters" (due to his penchant for constant chewing of "Red Man" chewing tobacco and constant dribbling and spitting of the brown liquid.)

Once you got the name, and if it were a bad one, you were toast. Granted, over time, people could apply the bad nickname in a respectful and kind of affectionate way, and some people embraced it, but sometimes they didn't.

Poor "Stinky"...he got his nickname for poor hygiene, much like "Pigpen in Peanuts. I liked him, he was a big, oaf of a guy with a body (No kidding) like the paunchy "Mr. Incredible", huge shoulders and arms, big gut, and little twiggy legs. Very nice, harmless, inoffensive guy. But he did have a dirt ball issue. When someone would call him "Stinky" he would growl in a menacing voice from under a lowered brow "Don't call me Stinky!" but it persisted, because even though he had the physique to mash someone to a pulp, he wasn't that kind of guy.

Anyway, when Trump applies them...they stick!

I had to laugh...I can see Buttigieg:

BUTTIGIEG: Trump called me "Alfred E. Neuman"...what does that mean?

FRIEND: Umm...it refers to a kind of cartoon character. It's kind of a stupid, goofy character.

BUTTIGIEG: Really? Trump thinks I am stupid and goofy? I wouldn't have expected anything less...

FRIEND: Well, it isn't that exactly...it is...

BUTTIGIEG: What? What?

FRIEND: Err...he, uh...is inferring that you kind of look like him. He, uh...

BUTTIGIEG: That I look like him? Do I?

FRIEND: Well...er...uh...

BUTTIGIEG: (sees copy of MAD Magazine in his friend and snatches it from him) This guy on the cover? THAT'S "Alfred E. Neuman"? What? What? Do you think...

FRIEND: Umm...ahhh...well, you know, there is kind of a casual resemblance...

BUTTIGIEG: My candicacy is done. (looks towards passing school bus to see a kid point to him and yell "Hey! What Me Worry?" to peals of laughter from all the other kids on the bus)

This guy brags about being gay. Like it's some sort of badge of honor. He says he has a "husband" which leads me to believe ButtPlug is the "wife" and the receiver.

I find it disgusting. I don't go around advertising my own sexual preference and I wish they would keep their own proclivities to themselves. I never heard of a heterosexual person coming out-of-the-closet to announce to society that they are straight.

I don't understand how focusing on his queerness will get him many votes. With only 1.5 to 4% of the total US population estimated to be LGBT, that's not much of a base to draw on.

There will always be some liberal progressive types who would vote for him/her just to assuage their guilt over gays' alleged mistreatment in society. Just like they did voting for Obama because he was black. Well, half-black. And many say, gay as well.

He sounds good on the stump, I'm sure, but in the "end" (no pun intended) he will fall by the wayside. He needs money from big party donors and it probably won't be flowing his way.

Pointed that out to my wife.... So he’s the ideal Dem candidate. He can be the first “ female “ president...

Have you seen a high school class in the past 50 years ? The Demonrat Party ain’t family friendly, so unless we’re going to ignore them altogether (which sadly, we can’t), the obscenities they keep producing will have to be closely monitored.

Don’t know, but I am constantly amused by the fact that Stephen Colbert once referred to Donald Trump as “Putin’s cock holster” and now the dems have an ACTUAL, FOR REAL cock holster running for the dem nomination.
Trump Effect?
