Bill Clinton Falls Asleep During MLK Speech!!!

Hahahaha!  I saw this on the news this morning.  Of course, they didn't mention it was during a MLK speech, but just rather Church in general.  I thought, yea, well, I'm guilty of snoozing in church too!  LOL  It was a good one!

Church=nap for me too!

Honestly some speeches would put anyone to sleep.

I guess he is famous for it.  In the article I read he fell asleep at Ronald Reagan's funeral too.  You'd think he get more sleep before important/high profile events!

Maybe he's narcoleptic?

I doubt he slept well or much as Pres with all you have to do, and now that his wife is running...lol. Between that, and tomcatting about, guy probably hasn't slept a full night since he was 3 years old HAHA!

LOL!!!!  DH thought maybe he was tired after eating a pastrami on rye, 2 ny dogs and large fry (his order at a deli last year).

KNEW there was a reason that I liked the guy...THAT is admirable!

Okay... the sleeping itself doesn't really bother me... but honestly, his posture? Super offensive. Everything about the way he is sitting is saying, "I don't want to be here and I couldn't care less about this place, the people attending, or the person speaking." If you're going to carry yourself that way, better to simply not attend the function. The attitude is highly offensive and disrespectful, IMO.

#1 thing I learned in school: if you're going to nod off, at least act like you're paying attention while you're doing it!

Take, for example, this guy:

It's at least *plausible* that he's looking at his desk and reading notes or something, right?

Or this guy:

Okay, so maybe Senator Biden is dozing a bit, but he at least looks like he's trying!!!!

But this?!?

Give me a break!!

Hey,  It's a tough job but someone has to do it!!!!

Cita, so you're saying the below is not respectful posture?

FWIW..... that guy's speech was putting me to sleep too. 

 I laughed my butt of when I saw this!! My favorite part is when he checks his watch, hahaha.

 I agree totally with Cita though, he's being disrespectful with his posture alone. Taking into two other factors...1) As a Former President shouldn't he be held to a higher standard (haha...yes, laughable, considering...) and 2) KNOWING you're going to be sitting right behind (or, next to) the speaker, and are going to be on camera the whole time don't you think you'd at least try to pay attention...for the camera?? So either he's really stupid, or really doesn't give a ***. Either way, I think its offensive.

Why? His job's done...far as I am concerned he's just some guy now...LOL. I didn't care what Reagan did after he was done, Carter...or anyone else for that matter. Now when he's First Man he might have to pull his socks up....but for now. I laugh and I really...honestly could care less. At least he wasn't itching his crotch or picking his earwax and eating it!
