If reports are true that Chelsea Clinton and her boyfriend Marc Mezvinsky are considering marriage, the father of the groom won't be able to attend the wedding until he is released from prison in November 2008.

Ed Mezvinsky, a former Democratic Congressman from Iowa, is serving a seven-year sentence for fraud after getting caught up in a series of Nigerian e-mail scams.

Initially, Mezvinsky became the victim of "just about every different kind of African-based scam we've ever seen," federal prosecutor Bob Zauzmer told 20/20 for a report to be broadcast this evening.

Marc Mezvinsky is with Goldman Sachs. Hired on sheer talent of course.

and Chelsea is a hedge funder with one of Daddy’s cohorts.
The vacation benefits must be good, she always seems to be partying somewhere in the world. Good use of an Oxford degree

When I was in London a long time ago

there was an article in the Times:

Chelsea’s dinner party group , at a restaurant, orders a

single $25,000 bottle of wine (15,000 GBP) !

She’s living high, on someone else’s money, isn’t she?

Just like her parents.

Never hear about that in the USA do we?

I once ordered a 20 pound bottle of wine in London. We shared.
