Unbelievable. An accessory to crimes that led to impeachment is back.

This has got to be the biggest bait and switch campaign ever.

Some change.

Based on McCain's recent behavior, we probably would have had the same people in charge.

In a related development, Vince Foster's grave has been robbed!

Compelled to testify to a grand jury five times about Mr. Clinton’s relationship with Ms. Lewinsky, Ms. Currie is widely admired in Clinton circles for her loyalty and effectiveness.

I'm just waiting for Susan McDougal to get a job in the transition office... or maybe the the State Department!

You're right. McCain would have been a distinction without a difference.

The article first claims she volunteered to work at Obama’s office, then Podesta said he asked her to come back. Which is it? And does “volunteer” mean she’s not getting paid?

It sounds to me like she’s not getting paid for the transition, but then is expected back on the White House payroll—so both could have happened in either order.

No, as the articles states, "volunteers do not give interviews".

Why is this news, the Democratic Leadership Council (www.dlc.org)has been pushing the Third-Way, (i.e. Progressive agenda) for about two decades. Third-Way link ta the DLC: [www.ndol.org/ndol_sub.cfm?pagenum=3&kaid=128&subid=187].

This website absolutely lays out the premise for their plan as well as where they are at today. This was concocted by Al From and the Clinton’s. Many politicians who follow this mindset are calling themselves “Progressives” This is nothing more than a form of socialist-fascism!

In other news...

The Office of the President Elect has announced that the search for the Family Dog is concluded, and the Obama's new puppy will be Socks the Cat.

Sox was the lucky one going with Betty. Buddy got whacked for telling the Busch’s Bean’s dog too much.

She answers like this:

“Hello, President-elect Clinton’s office, may I help you?”

She distributes Obama's public appearance schedule to people with middle names like "Harvey" and "Earl"

No difference at all between McC and O.

“I did not give Sox to that woman—Miz Currie,” the ex-president insisted...

This could explain the recent announcement that Socks the Cat is dying... Remember that Betty Currie is Sock's caretaker. Yet another arkancide? The Clinton's are making sure that they've got their people inserted well into every nook and cranny of the Obama administration. You KNOW they know where all the skeletons are buried. And they have to eliminate those witnesses who know too much about them... So, of course, Socks had to go...

I'm sure that she'll be keeping Bill occupied and off the radar screen...
