Bubby Wawa—what a pig!

I guess this is news. I didn’t realize Baba Wawa was still alive.

Barbara Walters: I had affair with U.S. senator

My guess would'a been Sen. Patty Murray.

[untrained skeptic]

Why is she coming out with this now?

I'm probably overly suspicious on this one, but are any of Brooke's or Walter's kids superdelegates?

[SE Mom]

What a shame she just couldn’t keep this to herself (and the likely small circle who already know about it).

When Brooke ran for Senate my family was pretty excited (in their low-key way) to have a Republican they could vote for as Senator.

When I was a kid Barbara Walters was in a class by herself- since she went to the view she’s got no class at all..

From Barbara Walters Wikipedia page:

On March 3, 1999, she interviewed Monica Lewinsky in front of a record 74 million viewers, the highest ratings of any journalist interview. Walters asked Lewinsky, "What will you tell your children about this matter?" and Lewinsky replied, "'I guess Mommy made some mistakes,'" at which point Walters brought the program to a dramatic conclusion, turning to the viewers and saying, "And that is the understatement of the century".

Who knew that she was Monica before Monica was?

[Revolting cat!]

has anyone ever heard of Senator Edwald Blook?

Oh that affair! I thought she was referring to her affair with Senator Stephen A. Douglas:

[Roberts]

After showing disdain for her cretin politician’s family, why does she feel compelled to reveal this to the world?

[Fudd Fan]

OK, I haven’t read the article yet... was it perhaps with John Calhoun?

And what are some theories as to why she’s choosing now to disclose this....?

I’m ready to hear ‘em.
