Bill Clinton: I'd Sit in on Hillary's Cabinet Meetings 'Only If Asked' [Projectile Vomiting Alert]
ABC News ^ | 5 Dec 07 | ABC News

Posted on 12/06/2007 8:34:48 AM PST by seanmerc

For the first time in history, a former president has a good shot at getting back into the White House … as a spouse. And that's just one reason why Bill Clinton is one of Barbara Walters' "10 Most Fascinating People of 2007."

If his wife wins the 2008 presidential election, would the former president sit in on cabinet meetings?

"Only if asked," Clinton told Walters. "And I think it would only be wise if it were on a specific issue. I think it's better for me to give her my advice privately most of the time."

Clinton says he would weigh in if he disagreed with a decision his wife planned to made as president, "but when she made it, I'd do my best to support it," he said. "I'd keep my mouth shut."

"Mr. President, is your wife really smarter than you are?" Walters asked.

"About some things," said Clinton. "We have different kinds of intelligence. She has a great organizational intelligence, and we've always worked well together. … I said the other day -- we celebrated our 32nd anniversary -- I'd rather spend the night talking to her than anybody I can think of."

Clinton said that before Hillary decided to run for president, and if the laws were changed, he might have liked to run for a third term in the White House.

"I loved being president," he said. "I loved it. And I thought I was well-suited to the time."

The man some call the rock star of American politics hasn't lost his magic touch.

"Mr. President, do you think you've been a very good ex-president?" Walters asked.

"Oh, I don't know, but I've had a good time trying to be," said Clinton.

You mean William Jefferson C. won’t just be making cookies and hosting White House tours? Amazing.

“I’d keep my mouth shut.”

OR Her Heinous would shut it for him — with an ashtray to the kisser!

I want to burn my computer after reading garbage like this.

The good news is, he’s come out and said that the idiot democrat voters will get two Clintons for the price of one. That will send a lot of the undecided moderates running for the door of the Clinton tent.

Naw, Bill — the Cabinet meetings will be a perfect time to get in a corner with cigars/ interns. The ‘cat’ will be busy, you can go stalking and a’stumping. Should be a perfect set-up.
