Chelsea Clinton, the former and potential future first daughter, has stiff competition for the title of Most Tactless Human. Greedy reality-TV creature Kim Kardashian is a contender. Chelseas mom, the once dead broke Hillary Rodham Clinton, might rank even higher on the scale of bad taste.
Chelsea, 34, has jabbered like an overeducated trailer-park habitué about her familys No. 1 obsession money.
The millionairess, pregnant with her and millionaire hedge-funder hubby Marc Mezvinskys first child, told Britains Telegraph newspaper this month that shes made a strenuous effort to care about cash. But she just couldnt bother with the green stuff.
Ive tried really hard to care about things that were very different from my parents. I was curious if I could care about [money] on some fundamental level, and I couldnt, Chelsea said. That wasnt the most infuriating part.
I will just always work harder [than anybody else] and hopefully perform better, she said. Didnt anyone teach Chelsea that its bad manners to show off?

Love that term!
The only people who don’t care about money are those who have never earned any and still have far more than they need.
She could have practiced a high fashion pose.
Here, she looks like she has to go to the bathroom.
habituée, noun, from the French, meaning trash, slut, vermin
Not true.
I have never cared about money and have lived paycheck to paycheck on PB&J sandwiches because it’s all I could afford.
Making a target out of Chelsea Clinton simply because her mother is a Sleastack shows that some conservatives have sunk to liberal standards. She and her unborn child have not hurt anyone.
Web must be so proud of his little girl.
Ohhh, slap down!
Wealth can’t buy class, period. Witness Donald Trump.
Arkansas Hawg, sorry Razorback fans.
Like Father, like daughter...
Webb Hubbell in drag....
Well, maybe you are on to something. She’s pregnant!
10 pounds of crap in a 5 pound sack!
Just exactly what kind of work do you do, Chelsea? What are you qualified to do?
Getting a cut from the Clinton money laundering operation Foundation is not really considered a job.
I might agree with you, if she lived quietly and kept to herself. She has accepted more money that 99% of all Americans will ever see to inject herself into the public spotlight, and shown herself to be a superficial, braindead, self absorbed, insensitive twit, lacking any trace of self awareness, as Ms. Peyser so ably illustrates. The knowledge that whatever fame she has is the reflection of her parents notoriety should cause her a least a moment of introspection .
Hillary Clinton reveals what it’s like to be poor in America
The Peoples Cube| 6/9/14 | Opiate of the People / FR Posted 6/28 by laotzu
Hillary Clinton has served America for decades; in January 1993, she made history as she became the country’s first co-president along with her husband, Bill. After her tour in the White House ended, she answered the call from her adopted state of New York and voluntarily gave up a lucrative career trading cattle futures to act as one of only two US senators from that state.
In 2008, after tirelessly devoting herself to helping Barack Obama become America’s best president, she looked forward to retiring to a quiet life in a small cottage somewhere. Once again her country called, pleading with her to act as Secretary of State because President Obama, who would’ve been better than anybody at the job, was simply too busy to do it himself.
After four extremely successful years in the post, Ms. Clinton was on duty at 3 AM in the White House War Room when a call came in, informing her the extreme Tea Party wing of the Libyan Republican Party attacked the U.S. embassy in Benghazi. The date was Sept 11, 2012.
She immediately ordered the U.S. military to parachute her into the compound so she could take command. The Joint Chiefs balked, saying that the embassy was seven thousand miles away and by the time she got there, the attack would be over. “What difference does it make?” she said softly, “Get me there now!” The Chiefs relented. But, as they feared, by the time she arrived it was too late; president Obama’s poll numbers were already starting to fall.
Her injuries from Benghazi and her 1996 arrival under sniper fire in Bosnia still give her pain, but the physical scars are not what bother her the most. For, in spite of her decades of selfless service to America, decades in which she never forgot her fellow Americans, she recently revealed the great disappointment in her life: Americans had often forgotten about her. As she recently revealed to esteemed, accredited, impartial, state-approved TV journalist Diane Sawbucks: “We came out of the White House not only dead broke but in debt.”
Ms. Clinton went on to reveal the depths of the degradation her family was subjected to, being forced to make speeches for $200,000 a pop and pick up deposit bottles and cans out of the alleys behind expensive hotels (but mostly make speeches for $200,000 a pop) in order to make ends meet.
“It is shocking, simply shocking that America can cast aside its fallen heroes so readily,” said another nearly destitute Democrat senator, on his way to promote a documentary movie about the hold right wing billionaires have on the country.
“The Koch Brothers don’t care who they hurt!”
“The country wouldn’t treat wounded veterans so poorly”, said Senator Elizabeth Warren, herself so impoverished she was forced to accept a $525,000 advance for a new book in order to keep vichyssoise and caviar on the table. “But just because a leader is a civilian womyn lawyer, the patriarchy feels it’s OK to treat you like dirt!”
