Fire Damages Hillary's Family Cottage
Associated Press | April 3, 2004

LAKE WINOLA, Pa. (AP) A lakeside cottage owned by U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's family was slightly damaged in a fire that destroyed an adjacent home.

The fire at a ranch home in this small vacation community about 115 miles north of Philadelphia broke out Friday morning. The home was fully engulfed by the time firefighters arrived.

Three children and a baby sitter were home when the fire started but escaped unharmed. The cause remains under investigation.

The Rodham cottage sustained heat damage on the side and water damage inside after several windows were broken, firefighters said. Tony Rodham, Clinton's brother, was notified at his residence in Washington, D.C., officials said.

The New York senator's late father, Hugh Rodham, grew up in nearby Scranton. While raising his family in suburban Chicago, Hugh Rodham returned to Lake Winola for regular vacations with his wife and children.

The two-story cottage is 100 yards uphill from the lake, where Clinton swam as a child.

I can't believe no one has said it yet, so I will.

It's Bush's fault!

I would also suspect Hillary's brother in this.

Is this the cabin where Huge (Hillary's brother) was attacked by his neighbor for having an affair with his wife??

My theory is they had a meth lab generating campaign donations.

And the lake is still toxic to this day.

Here again I am reminded of a Seinfeld episode.

Where was Chelsea and does her boyfriend smoke cigars?

More importantly, did they find that metal box full of Hillary's old love letters?

Isn't this the same cottage that Tony got punched in the nose by the husband of the girl he was sleeping with?
