I found many books with the "blood in her eyes" idiom, even a film listed above.

What does the phrase blood in my eyes mean? https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110403143253AA0GyTG Best Answer: it means someone can see the anger in you're eyes, and the blood is refering to a person's desire to hurt and injure another.

I can't believe Rush Limbaugh said he hadn't ever heard it.

It even made it into Star Trek: (One of the best Next Generation episodes.)

http://en.memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Tamarian_language

‘”Zinda, his face black, his eyes red” - anger or conflict, also can indicate pain or discomfort, possible indication of inability to survive (either self, or other party)’

From the page:

“The Tamarian language was the spoken language of the Tamarians. The Tamarians spoke entirely by allegory, referencing mythological and historical people and events from their culture. As a result, Federation universal translators – although they could successfully translate the individual words and sentence structure – were unable to convey the symbolic meaning they represented. Without prior knowledge of the Tamarians’ history and legends, a word-by-word translation was of no use to someone attempting to communicate with them. This language barrier led to isolation of the Tamarian people after all attempts at communication had failed.”

Here’s a book with the title:
“Blood In My Eye”
http://www.amazon.com/Blood-My-Eye-George-Jackson/dp/0933121237

Blood In My Eye was completed only days before it’s author was killed. George Jackson died on August 21, 1971 at the hands of San Quentin prison guards during an alleged escape attempt. At eighteen, George Jackson was convicted of stealing seventy dollars from a gas station and was sentenced from one year to life. He was to spent the rest of his life — eleven years— in the California prison system, seven in solidary confinement. In prison he read widely and transformed himself into an activist and political theoretician who defined himself as a revolutionary.

“Oh! But he was a tight-fisted hand at the grindstone, Scrooge! a squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous old sinner! Hard and sharp as flint, from which no steel had ever struck out generous fire; secret, and self-contained, and solitary as an oyster. The cold within him froze his old features, nipped his pointed nose, shrivelled his cheek, stiffened his gait;

made his eyes red,

his thin lips blue; and spoke out shrewdly in his grating voice.”

Blood In My Eyes by Bob Dylan

LYRICS

Woke up this morning, feeling blue,
Seen a good-lookin’ girl, can I make love with you?
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you,
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you.
I got blood in my eyes for you, babe,
I don’t care what in the world you do.

I went back home, put on my tie,
Gonna get that girl that money that money will buy.
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you,
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you.
I got blood in my eyes for you, babe,
I don’t care what in the world you do.

She looked at me, begin to smile,
Said, “Hey, hey, man, can’t you wait a little while?”
No, no, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you,
No, no, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you.
Got blood in my eyes for you, babe,
I don’t care what in the world you do.

No, no, ma’ma, I can’t wait,
You got my money, now you’re trying to break this date.
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you,
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you.
I got blood in my eyes for you, babe,
I don’t care what in the world you do.

I tell you something, tell you the facts,
You don’t want me, give my money back.
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you,
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you.
I got blood in my eyes for you, babe,
I don’t care what in the world you do.

Yes, but Trump said coming out of her eyes. Not in her eyes.

It’s relates to the term seeing red, I suppose.

Like Rush, I never heard anyone ever say blood coming out of her eyes.

But I knew what he meant and don’t think he meant she was on her menses.

But I did not hear him speak it, just heard quotes.

Anyhow, it’s show-biz!!

Piccadely is an early Anna May Wong movie. I think it’s lost.

Maybe. She did look like she was about to spit blood from her eyes like this lizard.

From the excerpt I saw on YouTube it looks fascinating.

I find it freakish that this is even an issue.

Little Miss News Tart foul-mouthed about her sexual kicks all over Stern’s show, posed nearly nekkid and provocative but *now* her delicate, sensitive, demurely feminine honor must be defended?

HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAA!

For anyone still watching, Megyn’s FB page is *still* being barraged by pissed off posters.

The negative comments are now running into the many tens of thousands.

“Don't forget that the only two things people read in a story are the first and last sentences. Give them blood in the eye on the first one.”
- Herbert Bayard Swope

Herbert Bayard Swope Sr. (January 5, 1882 – June 20, 1958)
was a U.S. editor, journalist and intimate of the Algonquin Round Table. Swope spent most of his career at the New York World newspaper. He was the first and three-time recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for Reporting. Swope was called the greatest reporter of his time by Lord Northcliffe of the London Daily Mail.

I’m familiar with the term “seeing red,” which basically has the same meaning.
