"Politics Wasn't First on List of NY Sen. Clinton's Career Picks"

PURCHASE, N.Y. (AP) _ She's a former first lady, a United States Senator, and a potential 2008 presidential candidate. But to hear Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton tell it, all of that pales in comparison to her real childhood dreams.

"I wanted desperately to be an Olympic athlete,"....

When I first saw Hillary, I thought to myself, "That woman looks like an Olympic athlete. If she weren't so dedicated to becoming a Marine, I'll bet she'd been great."
</sarcasm>

Wasn't it Novak that wrote that Hillary was a congenital liar?

"Or...Her Crusty Pantsuitness..."

You know that smell that old dirty double knit gets when it is worn too much without cleaning? If so and you happen to catch a wiff of it you can be pretty sure Kankles is near!

Of course she found out that there were no pork futures or cattle futures in sports. Turned out to be a nonstarter. Amen.

Being shrill and obnoxious is an Olympic event?

"I volunteered at the hospital but kept getting lightheaded and woozy when I saw anyone in any kind of distress," she said.

Typical Liberal! No practical help whatsoever!

Despite all those apparent setbacks, Clinton urged students in the audience to pursue their dreams by believing in themselves and ignoring obstacles in their path.

too bad she didn't ignore the obstacles...OY!

"My whole life has been a speed bump," she said to laughs.

is too late for her to BE a speed bump?

I distinctly remember reading somewhere that she's wanted to be the first female president since college, and if memory serves me right, which I wouldn't count on, I think she made referrence to it during her valvictorian speech. I may be conflating or confusing things, but I'm certain that there's something out there suggesting Hillary's had political ambitions since at least college, much like another political failure who's dreams, thankfully, did not come true. It would be good if someone could find it; a nice reminder of her lies, didn't she also say she wouldn't run for president if elected in NY?

Reminds me of the high school kid across the street. He told me that he wanted to learn how to read music, so I offered to teach him. He quit after the first lesson. Turned out he "wished he could read music," rather than "wanted to learn how to read music."

I'm glad you wrote this, as I was reading that tripe article, the very same thought came to me, all those "I wanted to, but ..." whines, they come across as though she has an idea, the first excuse to drop it and on to another. I guess it's too much to ask Hillary to consider maybe a bit work, stick-to-it-iveness is necessary to reach any goal.

And I'm not buying that cr*p about NASA writing her and telling her they don't take girls, either ... whatta load.
