Driving Ms. Hillary
U.S. News- Washington Whispers ^ | 05/19/03 | Paul Bedard

Posted on 05/10/2003 6:57:56 PM PDT by Pokey78

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton is a lot of things, but Dale Earnhardt Jr. she's not. Clinton last week attended the Capitol Hill rollout of General Motors' hydrogen-fueled prototype. But unlike other lawmakers, she begged off an invitation to drive the minivan. It seemed odd that she'd pass up some environmentally correct TV exposure, until GM Veep Beth Lowery told us why: The former first lady fessed up that it's been at least seven years since she last drove and this wasn't the time to start.

Considering the number of times my mother-in-law has dinged her car I wish she was as considerate as Senator Clinton.

Funny thing is, she can easily remember how to tell her driver(s) how to blow past an airport checkpoint and run over security guards there....

This is bad news for Hillary. It shows that she is out of touch. Remember the flack about the elder Bush looking surprise about grocery scanners?

MIDI - BEEP BEEP

While driving with my entourage…much to my surprise
I’m seeing some people along the roadway…it’s me that they despise
I don’t think that I like their attitude…or the mean things they had to say
I’ll get their names and I’ll make sure that they are gonna pay
F-off…F-off…I yelled at them F-off

I’m going to my fundraiser for two thousand and four
And I’ll show the whole planet that no one can call me a stinking whore
When I get back to the White House on daddy’s grave I really have sworn
That I will make the FReepers wish that they were never born
F-off…F-off…I’ll tell them all F-off

I can’t be late for those big bucks…I said, “Driver, let’s go”
At seventy five we’re running late…he is going much to slow
I had warned him that I had an ashtray…and he recalled that I really could hurl
If I were up there on the mound tonight…fans would scream “You go, girl”
F-off…F-off…I told him to F-off

Finally we begin rolling and I’m convinced that we won’t be late
All my entourage has been praying…they don’t want me irate
Then I’m looking out of my window…to see why we came to a stop
If we do not get going soon, I’m gonna blow my top
F-off…F-off…again I scream F-off

We can’t move ‘cause they’re wanting to search and the airport has it rules
I tell the driver to hit them…I am not putting up with fools
A cop has been hurt…he’s fallen…I flip him off with glee
Hey peons I am not slowing down…I’m Queen Hillary

As a former first lady, Senator Clinton still has secret service protection. I imagine they have a say in her not driving.

If the Secret Service were behind her not driving, wouldn't her dry stretch be more than 7 years? Methinks the woman doth enjoy her perks.

I believe that her holeyness is one of those folks who cannot walk and chew gum at the same time. I doubt she ever could drive.

I suggest we have Ted Kennedy appointed as her driver.

The Secret Service doesn't prevent Dubya from driving his truck--or jet planes.

Seven years since she last drove!? Wonder how long it's been since she's used public transpo? Judging from those calves she sure ain't been walking. Just how do you get around, Hilliary?

Hmmmm, wonder where the term "limosine liberal" comes from?

I wouldn't mind if she was actually ON the road.
