"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.

What kid didn't want to be Spider Savage flying down the slopes or Mike Eruzioni scoring the winning goal against the russians?
What kid didn't want to be an astronaut?
What she should have wanted to be was a woman with thin ankles and not to look like she has been sitting on a bag of nickles all day.

What was it Hillary wanted to do in the Olympics, shot putt, weight lift, wrestling, hockey or perhaps discus throw.

Hillary didn't get her shot so she became a Communist sympathizer.

Maybe she meant that she desperately wants a female Olympic athlete.

Wonder which one? . . . on second I don't want to know.

Perhaps she could have tried the "Special Olympics" and done quite well with those "charging rhinoceros legs" of hers.

"I was really lucky I finished second to last...I couldn't jump, I couldn't run, I couldn't swim."

After determining she'd never be an athlete, she set her sights on becoming an astronaut.

Sure she did. Just like she was named after Edmund Hillary. And they told her no girls allowed. Sure.

Physically at the bottom end of the scale and astronaut looks good to her. One could question her native intelligence and analytic ability.

Didn't she also claim that she wanted to be an astronaut and a Marine ?
What will she claim next ?
Probably that she wanted to be a stevedore and pro wrestler.

Let me guess, I bet she also wanted to be a super model.

I love this story.

What will Senator Clinton say next about her childhood aspirations? That she wanted to marry a sexed-up meathead who insists that "character is a journey?"

Senator Clinton's pretense is so substantial and so anal that it would be extremely difficult to believe anything she says.

The remarkable thing is that she expects people to believe what she says. Extraordinary.

And, but for those thick glasses, she wanted to be a Marine, too.


[She will say anything, if she thinks it will bring some political advantage.]

We have got to check this one out. She was named after the first guy to scale Mt Everest, NOT.

Of course it’s a load of crap. She was at an event discussing the Title IX female athlete legislation, so naturally her life long dream was to be a great female athlete.

If she was at a chef symposium, she would have said her first choice was cooking, if she was at a agricultural convention, her first choice would have been farming.

She’s Zelig, if Chris Farley made the movie instead of Woody Allen.

The moral to the story is.......if you can't do anything else, become a politician.
