Chelsea to Chronicle Harrowing Twin Tower Escape
Chelsea Clinton is set to tell the world about her alleged brush with death in the World Trade Center collapse, and how her last-minute decision to go for coffee instead of a jog around the Twin Towers saved her from a horrible fate.
That and the six Secret Service agents still assigned to protect her.
While it's unclear whether her bodyguards will rate a mention in the piece she's been invited to pen for the November issue of Talk magazine, you can bet her screed will be a real page-turner.
We won't be a bit surprised to learn, for instance, that Chels and her dad spent many a White House night playing Scrabble into the wee hours while plotting to get Osama bin Laden.
The New York Observer, which first reported the news of young Clinton's journalistic debut, said she was so moved by the episode that she's stopped giving interviews. (We hadn't noticed she'd started.)
In fact, it was her senator mom who first piqued interest in her daughter's Twin Tower adventure when she told NBC's Jane Pauley, "Chelsea was going to go [jogging] around the towers. She went to get a cup of coffee and that's when the plane hit."
Mrs. Clinton next claimed she wasn't able to reach her child for two whole hours after the attack, and was afraid to tell her husband - who was busy scooping up six-figure speaking fees in Australia at the time.
With all three tethered to a small army of Secret Service agents, it's hard to imagine such a total communciations breakdown. But the Clintons have never been sticklers for inconvenient details.
Talk initiated the idea of Chelsea telling her Twin Tower tale, the Observer said, noting the magazine's long history of support for the Clintons.

I just read the hogwash from Hellery ... "she knows about terrorism..she's been the victim" .... Puke ! The only terrorism Hellery knows first hand is that perpitrated by her Husband's goon squads,the IRS and DOJ/BATF jackbooted thugs, on innocent Americans.

I hope those secret service agents that have to follow this dog around get extra pay. They could not pay me enough to do it.

I admit that I looked for the ugliest picture I could find. Believe it or not, it was easy...she was wearing sunglasses in most of them.
To: OrioleFan
"Later I helped the rest of the dogs look for bodies." Now that's funny ! Thanks

But you gotta 'splain "neener" for me.I thought it was a more modern version of Nyah Nyah Nyah, Nyah Nyah Nyah. Instead it's Neener Neener, Neener. (Think of the playground taunt)

Maybe she didn't go for a cup of coffee . . . maybe, just maybe she went to hide and have a cigarette! Saved from a camel jockey by a Camel! What a story!
Okay, she is now in the public. No more hands off. I can finally say it: She is ugly. Real ugly.

Before the end of the week she'll be telling how she saved thousands of lives, etc.
She should realize that we wouldn't be in this situation if her father had taken care of business.

The Clintons are on par with looters. They will even take advantage of a disaster to fill their pockets. Damn, wish I had said that! You captured it perfectly.

I'm hoping I remember this all correctly. (Think I must have read it in Vanity Fair recently, but not certain.) Chelsea has been spending a lot of time in NYC (this was before the attacks) going to clubs and hanging out with the rich and famous yout's of America. One of her guy pals is an heir to some fortune or other, wish I could remember which one. They spend a lot of time in these clubs apparently. She was probably staying at the apartment of one or the other of her friends, after a very late night out.
I have a feeling Hillary was just trying to cover up what Chels was actually up to. Hillary is SO into coverups, it's what always trips her up...

To: He Rides A White Horse
Thanks for the bump! I think dear "Chels" and her idiotic WTC and Starbucks story deserve another little bump for good measure, don't you?! ;-}
