Am I the only one that doesn’t understand EITHER the original “But Soft!” OR this bit of gibberish?
[/QUOTE]
“but, soft!” is Shakespearean for “yo, listen up! lookee there!”
I have no idea what Scylla is on about.

“But soft” is an Elizabethan phrase, found in Shakespeare (“But soft! what light through yonder window breaks…”) meaning to speak quietly. Kind of like someone saying “Shhh!” just before they whisper a secret: not be silent, but be quiet, or stealthy.

Obfuscatory bullshit.

I put wheat down my shorts before I go for a jog, and when I’m done I make bread with the flour. Guess what I use for spread?

Dude, I am so not ever having a sandwich at your house…

Was that the ghost of Nixon, hovering and whispering, “Just say you don’t remember, you can’t recall”?

Ah, so that’s where HRC learned that phrase, I should have figured.

Why?
Thanks for explaining the Shakespearean reference, guys. Scyllese is still Greek to me.
But soft! what bread through yonder window breaks? It is the yeast, and Scylla’s in the bun!
Could be worse. Could be Rice cakes.
BTW, I have inside-the-Beltway information that Condi stocked up long ago on a lifetime supply of Russian Leather.

I don’t want to be anywhere near anything breaking near Scylla’s buns.

I take it that in this context, HRC is House Republican Caucus?
Her Royal Coxswain. Ceremonial position in England.

Thank you for sharing. Please tell someone who cares.

Butt soft or hard ass? Which is it?
I’m getting a little creeped out over here…

Senator Clinton’s favorite response during the Whitewater hullaballo seems to have been “I don’t recall”.
Like those missing Rose Law Firm docs that were “found” in the Residence.
Senator Clinton was also peripherally involved in President Nixon’s impeachment hearings, so it follows that she learned the value of “I don’t recall” at that time.
Ba-zing! That really showed those lefties! And exonerated Cheney and Rice! You go girl!
Is this about the secret Arkansas cocaine-smuggling landing strips? Or George Soros gunning down Vince Foster?

So it’s perfectly OK by you that Mr. Cheney and Ms. Rice use the same lame excuse when confronted over the falsehood of their claims, ones that, you know, were supposed to justify a war that has cost thousands of lives and billions of dollars? That’s fine with you, correct?

Acquitted for all that.
Even being generous and supposing she did lie, she was not lying to defend sorry reasons for going to war.
On the other hand, Clinton told a bunch of fibs. There’s clearly a moral equivalence here.
