Laugh of the day (if it doesn't sicken you, that is):
... In 1993, Clinton nominated Elders for the position of surgeon general, and she became the first African-American U.S. surgeon general. During her time, she gave 302 speeches. One mishap she mentioned was when she lost the speech she was planning to give at a Harvard commencement and had to scribble out some notes for a new one on a scrap of toilet paper in the bathroom. [We all see the appropriateness of that]
One of her more controversial remarks was at the National Press Club when she made a statement about the legalization of drugs. “There have been multiple studies that have shown that the legalization of drugs would lower the crime rate, but I do not know all the implications of this,” Elders said when recounting the incident at the forum. “I feel it should be studied.”
After 15 months she was forced to resign amidst controversy stemming from a remark she made at an AIDS conference that allegedly endorsed courses to teach how to masturbate. She specifically said masturbation “is part of human sexuality and it’s a part of something that perhaps should be taught.” Elders maintained that she meant that children should be taught about masturbation in sex education courses.
She spoke about the incident with a sense of humor. “[Masturbation] never got anybody pregnant,” she said, “and you know you’re always having sex with somebody you love.”
Elders said that she had no regrets about her time as surgeon general. “I would do it again,” she said. “In fact, I absolutely did this job as I felt it should be done. If I had to do it all over again, I’d do it exactly the same way.
“I want you to know that I always did the very best that I could do as your surgeon general,” she added.
Despite the fact that Clinton called for her resignation, Elders said that she harbors no harsh feelings for him. “I think Bill Clinton is probably the smartest person that I’ve met, and I feel certain that he’s the best politician this country has seen in a long time.” full story

That cabinet was an insult to the American people.
M, can you confirm if Michael Moore got an invite to the WH Press Dinner? If he did, who invited him? Helen? Terry Moron? Campbell Brown?
