Clinton, Crusty and Chelsea on a carrier: Photo

Corbis photos ^ | 5/8/3

[NativeNewYorker]

With all the Dems yammering about Bush's flight to the Lincoln, I went to the Corbis photo site, and did a search for [ Clinton Aircraft Carrier ].

[Taffini]

ain't he full of shi*

[NonValueAdded]

Whoa ... is "broad in the beam" a nautical term?

[Defiant]

[rface]

what's that officer on the right doing taking a peak down Hillary's shirt. He must have spent too many days out at sea.....

[mountaineer]

"Crusty," as in that black pantsuit she wears for weeks and weeks at a time. At night, it walks itself over to the corner of the room, just waiting for the next morning.

President Bill Clinton holds up a U.S. Navy Flight Jacket presented to him by Vice Adm. Archie Clemins (left) on board the U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS Independence (CV 62) at her homeport of Yokosuka, Japan, on Wednesday, April 17, 1996. The President took time out from his state visit to Japan to meet with the crew of the carrier and to thank them for their role in representing U.S. interests during their deployment off the coast of Taiwan. Clemins is the Commander Naval Forces, Seventh Fleet. DoD photo by Petty Officer 3rd Class Charles D. Popik, U.S. Navy.

I've seen her called that here before. Frankly, it fits, and I'd rather not know its origin. :)

I think I saw that jacket on ebay several years ago along with a bunch of Navy silverware....

That buffoon just keeps on grinnin', no matter that everyone around him is glaring, frowning and puking in disgust at his very presence.

[AmericanInTokyo]

Sheesh. Bush only brought himself (in terms of close family members), while that scumbag brought TWO (if we are going to talk 'costs').

And looking at those two pigs on either side of him, I am sure the chow bill down in the galley equalled if not surpassed the price tag of the total Bush visit to the Abe.

[Defiant]

I think the flight suit fit GW better. But I heard that libs are complaining about that, too, whining that Bush's was custom-fitted. I'm sure with Clinton, they had to let it out in the ass.

[Taffini]

The news reports of her breakup with her boyfriend after a "pregnancy scare" would indicate that possibility


The boyfriend is going to turn up as dead as Buddy the dog. Just wait..a car accident, a plane crash, shot as he picks up his coffee at Starbucks during a robbery, drive-by shooting, ran into the street after a ball....pick one...or make one up..suicide has been overdone

[TracyPA]

I seem to remember some sailors booing Clinton. Officers had to tell them they would be reprimanded if it happened again.

[cyncooper]

They had a RED carpet rolled out for themselves????

Gawd.

I'm sure I saw it at the time, but was overwhelmed with who knows what scandal was the topic of the day. I can confidently say that President Bush would never lord himself over the troops in that manner. Good grief.

What's funny is that she admits it.Here's an excerpt from this article

http://www.usatoday.com/tech/columnist/2001-03-27-robin.htm

Her perfectly fitting pantsuits have become something of an obsession for me since I, too, wear out "slimming" black pants at a phenomenal rate. As a busy mom and editor, I've tried mightily to keep my black pants selection well-stocked by shopping online. But my efforts have been less than fruitful. I was down to my last pair of frayed, shiny-knee black pants, twice reinforced at the seams, when I realized how desperate my situation had become. I could give you the litany of why Bluefly.com, Gap, L.L. Bean, and other online stores, didn't cut it, but I'd be revealing way too much about my body's peculiar flaws. Suffice it to say that the Internet let me down in the pants department.

But can it talk?

[Patriotic Bostonian]

Chelsea was taught (at a very early age) to DISRESPECT the Military, and boy she learned to do just that and do it with glee. Actually, Chelsea didn't stand a chance being brought up by those two PINKOS!

[scourge]

whoops sorry i read it to fast that's the editor, but it still applies ;)

[CaliforniaOkie]

Yeah, there was a joke picture of him Klintoon saluting and Chelsee was looking on with a caption over her "you got to be sh**ting me", it was funny can someone find that.

[Savage Beast]

"GW didn't ask for any red carpet. He's just not that kind of guy."

Yes, and he's an aristocrat with royal blood.

By the way, how much did Clinton spend on his trip to China? How many limousines did he take? How many people?
