We looked in vain for a Bill Maher or Margaret Cho byline on this...surely it's a joke.

One wonders whether the donuts have run out along with the $$$ at the Billary Campaign HQ.

Another red phone ad? For real? From a campaign attempting to influence the vote in her favor?

Back to the drawing board, Hill.

I hear Bill was quite upset that there really weren't snipers when Hillary landed.

Bill: Don't forget to duck.

Obama seems to be now running against McCain, leaving Hillary in the dust, where she will end up.

That's good strategy. Staying above the entire Clinton cesspool.

(And I'm one who donated to both of Bill's '91 and '95 campaigns.)

March 31, 2008Watergate-Era Judiciary Chief of Staff: Hillary Clinton Fired For Lies, Unethical Behavior
As Hillary Clinton came under increasing scrutiny for her story about facing sniper fire in Bosnia, one question that arose was whether she has engaged in a pattern of lying.
The now-retired general counsel and chief of staff of the House Judiciary Committee, who supervised Hillary when she worked on the Watergate investigation, says Hillary"s history of lies and unethical behavior goes back farther " and goes much deeper " than anyone realizes.
Jerry Zeifman, a lifelong Democrat, supervised the work of 27-year-old Hillary Rodham on the committee. Hillary got a job working on the investigation at the behest of her former law professor, Burke Marshall, who was also Sen. Ted Kennedy"s chief counsel in the Chappaquiddick affair. When the investigation was over, Zeifman fired Hillary from the committee staff and refused to give her a letter of recommendation " one of only three people who earned that dubious distinction in Zeifman"s 17-year career. Why?"Because she was a liar," Zeifman said in an interview last week. "She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality."

Is this suppose to be funny, or was this article serious? The sad part is that I have to ask the question. Seriously, I'm not sure because all of these events really did happen but I guess what's in dispute is the time.

Isn't that a big slap on Hillary's cheeck!

No, it is not, because Hillary had no idea about these calls, especially what these presidents of the past did at 3:00 am. She is honest this time: She was dodging sniper fires in Bosnia at the time. Oh, no, let me correct what I just said: She was next door jerking off while her husband Mr President was moaning on the phone with Mo on the other side of the line.

Now that was a public service. Informative (kinda) AND riotously funny. I never email people stuff and I will be emailing that.

Assuming Clinton answers the call at 3am because she worked through her "Sleep Deprivation", she will find upon picking up the phone that the Bill Collectors have caught up with her!
