Bill and Hillary Clinton: America's power couple
UK Telegraph ^ | 7:00AM BST 09 Aug 2009 | Philip Sherwell

Both Clintons are suddenly back on the world stage - but this time the third person in their marriage isn't an intern, it's a president. From New York, Philip Sherwell dissects the ultimate in power couples.

It was vintage Bill Clinton. The former US president had been lying low and licking his wounds after being slammed for some intemperate outbursts during his wife's failed run for the White House. But that semi-seclusion ended in headline-grabbing fashion last week as he burst back on to the world stage with a foray to North Korea to collect two jailed US journalists sentenced to 12 years hard labour in a communist gulag.

Bad news for the guy in Kenya trying to trade livestock for Chelsea:

And as the great saga of Bill and Hillary once again holds America in thrall, there may be another Clintonian turn to the summer.

Boy, Michelle ma belle isn't going to like that headline, no sirree, not one little bit. Methinks Baraq al-Hussein ibn Obama is going to have some 'splainin' to do when they get out of Washin'ton. After all, we know who wears the cardigan in the fambly.

Nope. :-)

I find it interesting in light of the rumors spreading that Hillary! is being positioned for a run in 2012. Michelle can't be very happy with that either.

One has to wonder, just how many ashtrays are being thrown in the White House nowadays?
