[Excerpt from Dunne's latest Vanity Fair column:]
In 1999, when I was covering the impeachment of President Clinton for this magazine, I wrote about the appalling manners of Congressman Tom DeLay during Clinton’s State of the Union speech. I reported the smirk on his face and the fact that he didn’t stand when the president entered the chamber. Well, fair’s fair. I have stuck by Hillary Clinton through thick and thin, despite the consternation this caused several of my friends. But she lost me on September 20 with her appalling manners during President Bush’s magnificent speech to Congress and the nation.
What was her problem? She looked mad and mean, with a scowl on her face and a hard glint in her eye. Her hand-clapping was tepid, and it appeared that she wasn’t even listening to the speech. It seemed selfish of her to be caught up in her own concerns during one of the most united moments in the history of the country. I realized that night that this new president has strength, zeal, and star power. The government was swept away in patriotic fervor, but Hillary was pissed off, about what we’ll never know. How strange, I though, the second time the camera cut to her, that a person who had lived in the public eye as the First Lady for eight years could allow herself to be caught in that mood.
I know what you mean!!
Just like when Clintoon got caught leaving Ron Brown's funeral laughing and carrying on, until he noticed the camera pointed right at him. Suddenly, he just had to wipe away that tear of laughter and look very somber.
Anybody have that film clip handy?
No more phone calls................we have a winner.
He loses it with Hillary! over her looks at the Bush speech while staying with her through everything else? Gimme a break. It's like breaking with a a cop killer like Abu What's-Hus-Name because he used the wrong fork for his salad.
It's the right decision, too late, for mostly the wrong reasons.
Congressman Billybob
Also if you think about it the funny part is she really is not doing anything differant than she did during the past eight years
I cannot honestly think of the last time that either one of them have done something that hasn't caused an uproar.
(Of course, they both are AWOL right now, she because of the unfortunate booing incident -- although she IS going to hold a TOWN MEETING with only INVITED guests very soon..duh), and he is hiding, of course, because of that dreadful speech he gave at Georgetown where he basically said we got what we deserved because some people use to own slaves. This is their standard M.O. when they get in trouble -- they stay away from ANY venue where they might be asked questions! But, then, you KNEW that, didn't you?) I wonder how long they think it will take THIS time for the "talk" to die down.
Since the Hildabeast is such an a$$-hole, her favorite lipstick is Prep-H while sucking on a suppository.
Now if someone wants to send her a holiday gift basket loaded with Swiss chocolates (Ex-Lax), we might be able to get her self-propelled big ass right out of NY. On the risk side, with her "capacity," the govenor would have to issue a state of emergency and contact the EPA to clean up her crap.
Thanks Wiley.
And that is why she had to make up that story about Chelsea jogging to/from/around/near the WTC/Battery Park City while holding a latte grande.
It actually had more to do with peons sucking power away from her. The Queen simply couldn't allow that to happen.
or the fact that her last DC party was such a flop (poor thing)....
or the fact that he has not visited his ungodly expensive office is Harlem for about 2 months now.....
or the fact that he is again soliciting for "interns"....
or the fact that she has not visited "1" of the families that were ruined by the 9-11 events....
Geez, I could go on all night but I won't because it just makes me madder than H$LL to keep reliving it over, & over, & over....
What a wonderful, caring family they are!!! (/sarc)
As it is, they are humiliating themselves and people are really beginning to catch on and find out what we have known all along.
And think about it, what is the WORST thing we could ever do to Bill Clinton? Why, not like him, of course!
