Hillary Clinton, who recently urged Dick Cheney to get anger-management help after the VP unleashed a rare, F-word-studded rebuke on Sen. Pat Leahy, curses in a way that "would make Howard Stern blush," claims a new book on the former first lady.
"American Evita," a new biography of Hillary Clinton by Christopher Anderson and published by William Morrow, reveals a sharp tongue and ready foul mouth, according to a report in the New York Post.
In late June, Cheney responded to Leahy's charges of cronyism with the VP's former employer, Halliburton Co., by telling the Vermont Democrat to "F --- yourself," according to witnesses.
In an interview shortly thereafter, Hillary Clinton assumed the role of champion of Senate high decorum, stating: "So far as I know, no colleague has ever used profanity of that sort on the Senate floor. For the vice president to use his position, as president of the Senate, to insult a senator and then be unapologetic about it introduces a level of discord into Senate procedure that is unfortunate."
After Clinton's high-toned remarks, however, her critics pointed to her own reputation for an explosive temper. In 2000, a book famously reported that she said, "You f---ing Jew bastard!" more than two decades ago to a campaign aide. Jerry Oppenheimer's "State of a Union: Inside the Complex Marriage of Bill and Hillary Clinton" cites three sources who heard the remark.
Later, Bill Clinton insisted to the New York Post that his wife didn't say that, but conceded, "She might have called him a [bastard]. I wouldn't rule that out. She's never claimed that she was pure on profanity."
Now, in "American Evita," Andersen says, "she talks in a way that I think would make Howard Stern blush," according to the New York Post.
A few examples from Anderson's book of, well, unpresidential language from both Bill and Hillary Clinton, according to the report:
On inauguration morning, Hillary was running late, and the president-elect was heard to mutter, "That f- - -ing bitch."
When Hillary slid into the car next to her husband, she addressed the new president by saying, "You stupid motherf- - -er!"
When Bill finally fessed up about his affair with Monica Lewinsky, which Hillary says in her book "Living History" made her feel like she been punched in the stomach, her actual reaction, says Andersen, was to yell, "You stupid, stupid, stupid bastard!" – and then slapped him in the face. Clintons want Kerry to lose?
In his book, Anderson claims Bill and Hillary Clinton do not want John Kerry to win the presidency, as it would hurt Hillary's chances in 2008. According to the Post report, "Andersen says Hillary will do anything to become president.
"Anyone who gets in the way gets attacked and humiliated," Andersen told the New York paper.
Andersen is also the author of "The Day John Died," "The Day Diana Died" and "Bill and Hillary: The Marriage."

I thought it was F Off, Patrick.
Ah well. Go get em Cheney.
What about the Oval Office floor, Senator?
It was "Go f--- yourself," from what I've heard.
What they needed to clean off of the oval office floor was rather profane too.
The fact that they swore and used profanity was known in my circles during the 1990 election. They even use the "N" word, they're both a piece of work.
Well, you know that it is alleged that Bush swears quite a bit. I myself don't swear much, but don't mind some honest swearing when the occasion demands it. I dislike meaningless swearing, or swearing as an affectation to prove something, such as how manly or cool one is. Yuppie swearing is the worst; it's unimaginative and . . . vulgar.
"In an interview shortly thereafter, Hillary Clinton assumed the role of champion of Senate high decorum, stating: "So far as I know, no colleague has ever used profanity of that sort on the Senate floor."
In my opinion, an appropriate response from Vice President Cheney. In an earlier era it would have been pistols at dawn for Leahy's outrage.
What would one expect from carpetbaggers? Besides, we're speaking about a woman who screwed anyone to get a child to further her politcal ambitions since hubby was sterile and ruined her perceptions of the perfect political family on her climb to success. And we're talking about a man who screwed anyone just for instant gratification regardless if the other person assented or not and who has an ego bigger than the land mass of North America.
Is there any concrete evidence of this? I can't stand the Clintons, but Chelsea IMO looks a lot like BJ and lately seems to be acting like him too.
It made me sick to watch her and Schumer today saying that President Bush was putting Nat'l Security at the bottom and would not pass funding. He was playing politics and that stupid woman's husband is the reason we're in this mess. I hope she never gets in the white house.
